Mads rests as the company discusses the options at length, and the morning draws on.

(1d6)

With them still chatting in earnest, Mads has dressed his hurts, refit his armour, and taken a refreshing swig and is feeling much better (1d6=6, back to 9 of 9 hit points).

Wibert pokes around the site of the discussion, supposedly looking for anything to add to a stew, but checks out the equipment of the slain Padrig along his way.

With the knave having made off with the Elf's coin purse and backpack, what is left of Padrig's goods are:

• A water skin,
• A spear,
• An Elf made Shortbow,
• A quiver of 16 arrows and 3 silver arrows,
• A metal shield,
• An oil flask.

At last there seems to be something approaching a consensus.

The favoured course appears to be to backtrack out of the ravine with the cart and loot, and there upon to search out a route to scale either side of the ravine and to come upon yonder gate house during daylight hours.


Gentlemen, I shall require a marching order before you set off. What brave soul shall take the lead? And what wary adventurer shall take the van?

What, if anything, is to be done with Padrig's body?

Unless the second group has returned there would be very few manning the defenses. The good Master Hobbit and Myself may even be able to gain entry without a fight since until just a few moments ago we were counted allies. Mayhap the rest of you could even disguise yourselves with the knaves garb. I say we march in the front gate with loud shouts of victory and promises of gold and catch them unawares!"

"I'm with Nidhogg if you ask me, make the cart safe and let's clean out the place", smiles the little man called Wibert.

"It does not seem right to leave the dead knight over there behind, I'm help bury them before he smells", offers the hobbit.
"I once had a pet dog that died, and we where to busy to bury them. Big mistake for the smell got so bad we had to move house down the valley to breath again. Don't want a do that again."

Highbough will indeed cast The Trammel upon the door.

He would like to take a nice safe place near the middle of the marching order.

(OOC: not that he is a coward--just realistic!)

Nidhogg will march second ready to stealthily scout ahead if need be.

Pellenwin will follow 3rd in line, unless no one volunteers to take point.

Well, I think Olaf and Dieter (2nd level fighters) need to be near the front with scouts out ahead of them. Mages and other low HP/armored folk in the middle and somewhat strong fighters at the rear for protection there.

And for heaven's sake, missile shooters, *please* don't shoot any of us in the backs any more! [img]images/smiley/smiley.png[/img]
