Marav waits until whoever chooses to be his bunk mate gets in and settled down. He then tells them what he is doing and takes a handful of bearings and sets them by the door where someone would have to step and at the base of the window as well. He makes sure not to put too many, just a small handful. If the door opens though he reasons that the scraping and rolling of the bearings across the wooden floor would waken them even if the person misses stepping on the bearings.

// Fair enough—you're not using enough to make an actual trap, but I'll give you a circumstance bonus to your Passive Perception (so if someone tries to enter quietly the DC will be at +2). We'll say that this uses about 100 ball bearings per handful. //

//what I was going for... Didn't want to make something that would allo us down when a giant tries to kill the town. // 

Flint will stand a watch at the window facing the stables and will encourage the others to do the same.

Are the other three of you (Marav, Rip, Angel) going to be acting on Flint's advice and taking a watch at the window by the stairs?

//I assume we will take turns, splitting the night into 3. Marav will take the 1st shift. Being uncomfortable in town he will keep a close watch.//

Rip will take the watch until dawn

Nhek the innkeeper looks as if he's about to say something to Angel about the dogs being inside his guest rooms, but seeing the look on the monk's face he decides better of it. He doesn't seem to notice Marav putting the ball bearings down. 

As the night begins to pass, and Ink rests near the stable protecting the cart & ring, it begins to rain heavily. Marav's watch at the window is thwarted by the torrent of water running down the window and pattering incessantly on the wooden roof. 

Thunder rolls in the distance. Thankfully, everyone is nice and warm in their respective resting places!

// Those watching the stables from inside the inn, your perception is compromise—did you want to move somewhere else? //

Seeing the rain Marav sighs and goes out to get a better view, staying close to the inn to try and get some cover, but making sure he can see as much as he can.

// Oh will this take care of my level of exhaustion from the run back?//

//Whether or not I get to complete a long rest is up to you and the dice gods.:-p//

On his watch Rip will join Ink in the cart

During the second watch if Flint finds he can't see the stable well from the window he'll go check the stable every 20 minutes.

//  Aww guys - you like me, you really like me...  Oh you're worried about the ring..... Ha //

//Rip plans on getting everything set to go as early as possible given they are so close to his home//

You spend the night waiting and watching, taking your turns out in the rain and waiting by the window. During Flint's watch in the moonless midnight hours, as he steps outside to check on the stables, he sees a form approaching quickly through the rain. It's hard to make out, but it's large. The rain bounces off the dark form as it draws nearer, less than a hundred paces and closing. 

// For sake of reference - where is the cart with Ink in it? In the stable with Boris or elsewhere? //
