The road to Vrux.

"No, they have had the numbers to overwhelm us all along, especially as we are injured and exhausted. I say we take advantage of the 'safety' they provide, and all get a full night's rest. No way of knowing what will come tomorrow."

The four heros fall asleep quickly. The spring night stays warm to stay confortable. The rising sun and a delicious breakfast odors wakes Morrison, Rell, Calondor and Makas. The gnome is preparing fruity waffles with sugary syrups.

As the group eat, they notices a few of the villager heading towards a large common tent which seems to be some kind of dining room. A few of the villagers ask Fror for a bit of food, but he refuses saying that this is reserved for the special force team.

They all sits and quickly eats the breakfeast. Everybody then prepares their luggages ready to leave for Vrux.

As they are about to leave the camp towards Vrux. Golear appears and wish them good luck, thanking them again. The group head back to the main road and half an hour later they see the village a mile away. Morrison (spot T20) carefully looks at the village but from this distance everything seems ok. Everybody is quite impressed by the size of the village. In any other country that would be called a large town. The village even has a small stoned fortification around it. Because of it it's difficult to see anything inside of the village. A large hill is located behind the village. Large amount of people can be seen there. The walls and the access to the town seems to be guarded by soldiers. A small line up of caravan can also be seen in front of the main door, visibely waiting to be searched before being allowed to enter.

Most of the forest was cleared around the fortification and it would be extremely hard to approach without being noticed.

OOC I assume the group is now located at the border of the forest observing the village. Sorry to move that along but I felt that things were dragging a bit. If you wanted to do something else in the village don't hesitate to tell me.

Makas (dwarf warrior)

Even the dwarf's eyes can see the large group of people gathered at the large hill behind the village of Vrux.

"I say we make our way around there," says Makas, pointing at the hill.
 

Calondor (half-elf bard)

OOC: still having technical problems though I hope that is over finally
Also OOC: Did Calondor have any indicators on whether it was really working?.

And now back to where we are now: Calondor gives the Makas a curious look "Why would we go there exactly?, it seem's to me we want to get inside the city do we not?"
 


Rell Half-Giant Soul Knife

Rell whistles softly, "That's quite a village. Back home that it about as big as the local capital. I think our mission requires us to get inside, but I am curious as to what the crowd on the hill means. Perhaps one of us should ride over and find out what's going on before we try to enter the city. They seem rather particular about who gets in. We should be sure we aren't going to have any trouble before we face the guards." He shurgs, "I guess after all we've been through I'm feeling a little cautious."
 

"I agree with Rell and Makas. Finding out what is happening on the hill may be valuable, but even more, Nadour may have come here, and turned the guards against us. It would be worth knowing if they intend to arrest us on sight. I think we should move as a group through the forest (to keep in cover), around to the hill. Then Calondor should go talk to a few people on the hill and find out what is going on, while we watch, ready to ride out and help him. Anyone have any other suggestions, or complaints?"
 

Rell Half-Giant Soul Knife

Rell chuckles, "You start taking complaints and we'll be here all day. The only thing good about this whole business has been the food." A few crumbs of the last meal still linger on his clothes. Serious once again Rell adds, "I think your plan is sound."
