Yes, they've doubled around. You're a couple days southsouthwest of Greenest at present. Lia will be able to catch up fairly soon, they're moving almost twice as fast as you.

In response to Abn's query. For any basic things, like just watching the camp's general behavior, don't worry about rolling. If you want to observe specific guard patterns, give me a perception check. If you want to memorize a detailed layout, that'd be a raw Int check.

Generally speaking, just go ahead and roll what you think is appropriate rather than waiting for me to respond to a query. If I needed something else, I'll usually just reuse your roll with the correct modifiers slapped on there.

P.S. While I'm thinking about it, regarding the use of Onwen's Counterspell. How about this: When rolling for combat and prepared to use counterspell, give me an arcana check and a conditional trigger. For instance, "I'll counter any noncantrip spells", or "I'll counter any AOE or enchantment school spells.", or "I'll counter everything from archmage evilmcbill, but ignore his acolytes' castings", or some combination of such things. If the arcana check is good enough to glean the right info and the spell fits your criteria, I'll have Onwen attempt to zap the things midcast automatically. Should save us both some discussion on whether or not you want to counter something. Sound good?

Here is my perception check to see if Fay can discern any specific guard patterns and also to see if they are also drinking to excess.

Daishain, long shot questions… the entrance to the box canyon. How wide is it? Also, does there appear to be enough loose rocks/boulders that if brought down they could block that entrance?

Around a hundred feet. While there is stone that could be brought down in the area, at best it would just narrow the passage.

Thank you… even though it eliminates one or two ideas. Now I will have to keep thinking… if there were only a handful of prisoners, things would be so much easier, wouldn't it?

It's hard to get 100 or so prisoners moving anywhere in a hurry. We have to free them before our help arrives or we have a hostage situation. We just don't want to free them too soon or we have all kinds of problems.

Regardless, you guys do have a decision to make, they seem fairly off guard now, but risks are still high, and a slipup now could be disastrous. You could also wait and watch, see if matters change at all. Just let me know.
