Lionel, just stay here and wait with us and we do everything as a group. Splitting up never has a good outcome.
ooc: Trust me I know that from playing in medieval. Last time we spilt up the whole party nearly died.
Also I just read what the GM said and Pundit can't heal?
Oliron walks up to the gathering party, leading Jonas by rope and harness.
"Namdar, I was thinking that I could follow you from the line of sight." Staying just a short sprint away. Unless we all plan to move ahead together in one bunch.
Oliron pauses.
"I just think your abilities in detection and stealth could aid us in this." I would be within a short run from you at all times.
* Krusten listens while everyone debates the next move. She has nothing to add as she just waits to see what the outcome will be. She looks at her clothing as any elven woman would to check for something out of place or badly creased. *
SA: I will begin praying in preparation for the healing. I'm making a 1d* roll just in case but still waiting on what I really need to do since there was a disagreement there in the questions thread but still not official word.
Roll: 8 (no modifier added)
Namdar checks his slingbag and adjusts his boots and hood, looking out the partially demolished fence, as he listens to everyone.
"I and Skedvick and maybe Jenrek, will proceed first, with the rest of the party about 50 feet behind, but as I said, we should be able to make much swifter progress until we get to the tracks, and then it will be slower going as we'll need to be cautious again. But the plan is for us to be able to follow them as far as possible, or until we know that by the time we get back to the farm, night will be falling - I'd rather not be caught out in strange, orc-haunted woods at night, even with torches and keen night vision."
The party leader, lips pursed in thoughts, turns to Lionel. "Although I'm not firm on this, I agree I do not think it would probably be wise for you to proceed alone back to town, fairly short distance though it is... however, it would take care of that errand for us, and as noted, be able to resupply us with anything we need, as you would presumably be back at the farm when we return. I leave this to your decision."
Lionel ponders his options, but decides he can't make a decision without the option of one more person, Lionel turns to the farmer, and asks, "My friend, tell me, you have lived here for a while, how safe do you think the road into town is, and is it safe enough for me to travel there alone?"
