[QUOTE="Damionte, post: 7603338, member: 30235"] [U]Duncan[/U] As the crew dismounts Duncan and company begin to prepare for an underground excursion. They re-secure their packs, making sure loose bits are not hanging irresponsibly, so as not to make unnecessary noise or catch on jagged things. They restring their bows and check the spacing on their arrows and bolts. Being human with human eyes they make sure their light sources are at hand. The foursome had stocked up on magical light after the previous cave encounter. Kneeling in the sand, while they prepared Duncan humored himself with one of his past times. Working tactics in his head. He looked over the group, imagining a marching order, as he normally did with his own troops. Ebony saw him scanning the group and knowing he wants to spit it out asks out loud [B]"Well my love .... what do you think."[/B] Duncan procedes to spit it out. [B]"Well our friend Tamtam and his companion will likely take point. His skills plus her nose is a no brainer for sniffing out trouble.

I'm sure they'll work out for themselves which of them holds the front line."[/B] [B]"Being softer targets."[/B] He flirtingly knocks on ebony's breastplate with his knuckles making it gong to emphasis the word soft.
