Jakob smiles and nods a thanks to Andreas for cleaning up their clothes. Upon Andreas' mention of the goats Jakob's eyes widen. Maisy's blush turns an even deeper shade of red. "Oh! The goats, yes well, I believe you are right Mr. Darants, they may just come back on their own. They always seem to..." he trails off, looking at Maisy from the corner of his eye. Quickly changing the subject, Jakob continues, "But we would very much appreciate an escort back to my farmhouse. It is not far. Just over the hill there. My father will be very grateful for rescuing me!"
Pulling Maisy aside, Jakob looks nervously at her as she walk away with Drogo. Reluctantly she tells Drogo what really happened. "Well, the truth is not too far from what Jakob has told you already. We were really attacked by the lizardmen. We did not provoke them, we were just in the way I guess.... In the haystack that is. We were, uh, having some fun, you know? It was Jakob that ripped my dress not the lizard creatures. But please, you mustn't let him know I told you! His father would not agree with our courting this young, please you mustn't!" she pleads desperately.
Sielwoodan can only spot the tracks of the three lizardfolk and the Halflings that are recent. No goat tracks at all.

Mosslime: Finhead Saurial/Male
Mosslime, unsure of how the small humans would react to him, give them a wide berth as he goes to one of the fallen lizardfolk. Poking it first to make sure it is indeed finished he comes up and breathes deeply of its sent. After wards he lifts his head in the air sniffing the air for more of the lizardfolk.

*Meekis climbs out of his hiding place, bringing Softsqueek back to her pocket. Walking over to Drogo he murmurs to the druid.*
"Softsqueek says there are no more enemies near, so we should perhaps return these two littlefolk home?"

Calenthang sits cross-legged on the ground while the party interviews the two halfling...friends. His concern all but gone as he almost immediately guessed what led to the scene before them. Young lust...
He leans back and looks to the sky, trying to determine what the weather will bring.

As the halfling's eyes open, Ayden closes his eyes and offers up a quick prayer of thanks to Finder for allowing him to heal the wounds of the halfling.
As Jakob spoke his thanks, Ayden nodded and said nothing allowing him to finish telling them all what had happened. Smiling, even though the situation was grim moments before, Ayden nodded once more as Drogo escorted Maisy a few paces off to the side. Seeing Jakob's worried look, Ayden tried to offer his reassurances.
"Fear not Master Merrybrow for Drogo will bring her back safely, I promise."
Still smiling, Ayden sat down beside the halfling and offered it to him.
"A drink sir? As I know from my younger days what hard work looking after "goats" can be."
After giving him a few moments to collect his thoughts, Ayden asks the question that was on his mind.
"Sir, I do not mean to pry into your business, but as Finder and Tymora have placed us in a position to assist you, I hope you can do the same for us now. While we have heard a little of the situation between your village and the lizard folk, I am wondering if there is more you can tell us? However, if you would rather wait and discuss this at your farm, we can do that as well."

Ayden Wyvernspur - Priest of Finder
Glancing across to Moss, Ayden watched as the saurial turned his nose upwards and inhaled deeply.
"Well, Moss' people all have keener noses than what we possess, and part of their language is based on scents. It took me awhile to get used to that aspect of their culture, but once you have travelled with him as I have, I'm sure you will catch on to what I mean, but if I was a betting man, I would guess he is merely making sure these three don't have any other companions nearby."

Drogo
"OK, no worries Ms. Booginsfoot. Our only concern is for the safety of your community. Although perhaps I should take this moment to remind you of the dangers of premarital sex. And young men aren't always as trustworthy as they might appear. The apearance of these lizardmen may have actually been a blessing. Consider yourself warned, and I'll let you consider the consequences of your actions. In any case, honesty is the best policy and thanks for leveling with me. Let's return to the others."
To the others: "This attack seems unprovoked to me. Ms. Boogsinfoot, Jakob, we are continuing to town. Would you care to accompany us?"

As Drogo returned with the still obviously shaken female halfling, Ayden pointed her out to Jakob.
"See my friend, safe and sound as promised."
As Drogo mentioned heading into town to Jakob, Ayden replied for him.
"Master Merrybrow has asked if we could escort him back to his farmhouse first Drogo. He says it is not far from here."
Glancing back to Jakob, Ayden wondered if he had overstepped himself by saying that.
"That is, unless you wish to go to town first and let Sheriff Trond know what has happened?"
