Out of Character: : What is the current distance between the wagon and Carrick?
Also, even though Carrick does not speak goblinoid, could he still infer that the figures speaking are at least not human and therefore not family that dwells here, or would that be too much of a leap? Should I roll to learn that, with say an insight perception check?
If so, my rolls are below as well as an initiative roll if this is heading into battle.
Seeing that Mradoric is intent on confronting the scene happening at the farm, Carrick, not wanting the young monk to face this threat on his own, runs to try and keep up and notching the arrow he drew quips, "Don't think this be what Corren had in mind fer 'reconnaissance', but we can't let 'em get away. Not without a fight!"
Then he looses the arrow toward one of the horses hooked up to the wagon in an attempt to spook it or at least wound it to be able to follow the blood trail should these pests flee…
As the horses have not traveled far. And even had a few minutes of rest in Clear Creek, he says to Roland and Zinna as they head back out of town, "We should set a brisk pace. We have no idea what the others might be facing. Hyah!" And he spurs his borrowed mount to a steady gallop.
"Yes I understand that we were just to check it out but I can not allow them to get away with taking the farmers items. IF we can waylay them or make them leave in haste then we can accomplish something. IF a fight is what they want then I will hope to kill many."
Mradoric keeps advancing.
Zinna looks at Corren while he speaks. She glances back over her shoulder towards where they had left Geoffrey. Hearing galloping she digs her heels into the horse's sides and races after the other two. She leans low over the horse's neck and feels her long hair streaming behind her. Zinna loves that feeling of speed and a big grin spreads across her face. She watches the trees blur by as her horse gallops. " I will show them how it's done " she murmurs as she urges her horse to greater speed. Edited: Kyrroeth on 12th Aug, 2016 - 11:45pm
Carricks arrow finds the flank of the horse causing it to whinny loudly, the horses bolt away knocking the orc down and tossing the wagon about as they flee, various items fly out of the wagon and wind up strewn along the ground.
The orc curses and shouts at the goblins, ordering them to slay the intruders! Zinna, Coren, and Roland ride up just in time to see Carrick's arrow fly. The goblins quickly drop whatever loot they were hauling, some drawing swords, others producing short bows.
There are four goblins near the cottage and barn and you can spy one goblin, armed with a short bow, in a window of the barn overlooking the party, his bow drawn he is drawing a bead on Carrick! Could everyone roll initiative please.
As he reach the farm Roland sees his companions engaged in a fight, pointing the sword towards the orc Roland charges him <<"Stand up and fight you monster!">>

Should I also roll tach0 and damage?
Anyways the <<"... ">> means I'm talking in orchish.
