    *feeding the squirrels seeds from his sack* the squirrels know nothing. Perhaps we follow the tracks as well?

    @Ruff starts walking into the forest
  • JystnJystn Monkeys
    Perhaps Kan and I should flank Storm as he follows the tracks?
  • Proclus says something that sounds like "Strigiformes!" and an owl instantly appears on his shoulder, looking at him. A pause, and then it launches high in the air towards the forest.

    Proclus drops into a seated position as his eyes go grayish white.
  • NedaNeda Monkeys
    Looks like they found something.

    Neda looks towards those headed into the forest. She glances backwards where Proclus is seated and wonders briefly if he should have someone stay with him. Her curiosity gets the better of her and she skips to follow those headed into the forest.

    Stay up there but follow me.
  • StormStorm Monkeys
    “So it looks like we are going to just blindly head into the forest. Got it.” Storm mutters to nobody in particular.

    Follow the rest of them into the forest staying alert and scanning around for anything out of the ordinary.

    @Proclus and @Neda, make perception checks
  • Sock (DM)Sock (DM) Monkeys (DM)

    @Proclus and @Neda through the eyes of your familiar you see further ahead in the direction of the tracks where there is a distinct widening into a well worn trail in the forest.
  • Sock (DM)Sock (DM) Monkeys (DM)
    @Storm you scan the area and you see nothing out of the ordinary aside from the tracks. They continue deeper into the forest.
  • NedaNeda Monkeys
    Neda catches up to Ruff. "Laz is saying the trail widens up ahead. Do any of you know this area? Seems like it's a popular path."
  • StormStorm Monkeys
    We should proceed with caution and scout ahead to see if there is anything awaiting us in the clearing.
  • JystnJystn Monkeys
    I will flank to one side of storm, with my weapons on the ready

    Don’t know the area, but I say we should stop right before it widens up and search for anything like an ambush
  • StormStorm Monkeys
    I can scout ahead if needed? I have certain um... skills...
  • Proclus eases back, blinks his eyes, and slowly stands to his feet.
  • Where is everyone?
  • NedaNeda Monkeys
    At the mention of an ambush, Neda tenses up. "Sounds like a plan," she says in a hushed voice.
  • StormStorm Monkeys
    I’ll scout ahead. Can someone head back and get the guy we left behind. he may be useful
  • Proclus studies the giant next to him. Kan, wasn't it? Clearly a goliath, and a heavily armed one at that. One has to appreciate their culture, really. Proud. Principled and uncompromising. They demand much from others but always more from themselves. There's honor in that.

    Somewhat bored, Proclus uses Prestidigitation to manifest a series of trinkets. A tooth from an unknown beast. A book with a missing chapter. A rope necklace. A purple handkerchief. A small block of something. An empty silver snuffbox.
  • Sock (DM)Sock (DM) Monkeys (DM)
    @Storm make a stealth roll. Anyone else gong with him?
  • RuffRuff Monkeys
    I go back to get Kan and Proc.

    "If you're done with your nap, we could use some help up here."

    @Proclus are you finished with your sitting party? I am ready to move along if you are.

    I've been standing for a while now, just waiting for you.

    But before we go, can you tell me about your armor?

    I must have been daydreaming - my apologies. I am ready to go catch up to the rest of the group.

    Yes I can! I have this nice chain mail armor which I was given as a gift from my father, and *holds up shield in ready position* this sturdy wooden shield. Both of which have served me well, along with my trusty longsword and crossbow. I've got a few other tricks I've learned along the way, but those will have to wait until I can show you in real combat. *whispers* don't tell Ruff that I know any tricks, please.
  • Sock (DM)Sock (DM) Monkeys (DM)
    @Storm you make your way quietly to the edge of a well-worn path in a clearing. Could you make a perception check please
  • RuffRuff Monkeys
    I make my way back to the group.
