Lawrance assesses the information from the various and makes some speculations to the group- “if the array of guards is anybindidcation, I doubt there is more than another score or so, off duty in the buildings. But that indent bothers me. I have to say, my initial thoughts were of a moderate sized creature landing. Could this half dragon have a full blooded one on call? Possible now tucked away in the stable?” He looks a bit worried at the rest of the group.
Lorairies grins at Zarra." I hope your idea of blending in isn't going in with your face covered like that. If so then I will go in a different way from you." She laughs.
Upon hearing of the situation she frowns." I'm with Lawrence on this. The guards shouldn't be too difficult for this group after what I've seen so far. That stable though.... There is something important and probably big in there from all the guards around it. I think it would be wise to discover what is in that stable before making any plans. Zarra and myself are more than ready to infiltrate the village and get more information. We can do it that way or I have a foolproof way to learn more about that stable. We will have to wait for darkness for me to do it the foolproof way. That's all I have boss." She winks at Velon.

Lawrance considers further “[There] must something if great value in the stable for them to guard it so heavy. Maybe that should be our scouts’ target instead of infiltrating the village. That huge dent, however, is very must a mystery. Could it be hiding some kind of huge summoning ring, considering her stated goals?”.
Poljen finally speaks up. He looks at Velon but is certainly addressing the entire group. "I am all for scouting. When it can be done with ready back-up. If things go wrong for the scouts they need immediate help, and if we are too far away to help, then I don't think it is a good idea. If we can get everyone very close to the town, or even inside the town itself, then maybe sending scouts out is a good idea. Back in the swamp castle we were never too far from our scouts. Here we might be too far away. If we can't do it safely, I'd rather we all simply walk into town looking like a group of travelers. Even though the half-dragon may have given his troops a basic description of our group."
He looks to Poppo and the other mages. "How many of us in total could you render invisible?"
Lorairies looks at Poljen and raises her eyebrows." If she can move quietly then her and I can get in and out of there easily. We would have invisibility and we can change our appearance if we needed to as a backup. I'm sure your enemy knows you well. If our whole group walks up we will have the whole town on us. I think it is dangerous to move in without knowing what exactly is in that stable and how many more guards hide in buildings also. It's much easier for two to get in and out than everyone. I can pretty much guarantee that two of us can spy in the town and get back to report it to the group."
She shrugs." I know I'm the new person here and don't have much influence. Just stating my opinion. Also, I can make the entire group much stealthier if we wait until after dark to go in to avoid prying eyes. I just feel that the two of us should gather some information now and then we can all move in under the cover of darkness. "'She studies the group curiously to see what their responses will be."
She glances at Poppo." With your invisibility spell… would it last long enough for us to get to the village, scout it and return?"

“Sorry, friends. An invisibility spell has far too short a duration to be worthwhile. I could possibly get my familius into the barn, and portal in, per spell. But this only works if Poppo and I take some time to pick specific spells. “.

"I believe that Lorairies and myself can handle ourselves," Zarra says, understanding the concerns raised before offering the suggestion, "Though we could perhaps have another come along as backup. The less people that can be recognized though the better." The drow did consider waiting until night might have its advanages.
