With a nat one, Fargen only knows the sound and remembers the ghasts movement direction. As Fargen runs forwards the marshy land, slows him, he realizes the land below him is floating, slowly sinking, and with a passive insight, or nature one would think that they would need some kind of boat to continue.
Unless you see the Ghasts again, you are out of combat.
"Let's search the mound and be off. It seems we disrupted their strength, with the loss of the grave. If there's time, we'll return before we set out and clear the lot. Until then, it's been quite a night."
Fargen looks to Nobody, "Can you sense anything with Mystara's Eye?
Although Nobody nodded his ascent to the various request of Fargen initially, nothing really comes of it at first. Rather, the tiefling appeared a bit lost in thought while rubbing his hands together. With a bit of a start at the touch from Fargen, he finally snaps to attention. "I-I, u-uh, s-s-sorry. I-I don't know, uhm, hmm." He frowns, then shook his head. "Sorry. Uh.. I-I could call Yanda here, but he wouldn't be able to see in the dark. A-and I don't have much in the way of supplies to just be sending him off to die." Nobody smiles apologetically.
"B-but I can do, the, u-uhm... other thing now that, uh, I'm visible again anyhow. A-a moment." Nobody takes a deep breath to calm himself, pulled out his rapier, and then held the pommel level with his face while uttering some words of power. A faint light flickers within the ruby embedded in the pommel before his eyes began faintly glowing with a cyan light. Wordlessly, he glanced about the general area before warily approaching the site where the mound itself fell in defeat.
Fargen sighs, "Another day, another evil. Let's see what tomorrow brings."
On the way back to camp, Fargen brings up the idea of spies back at camp. "Kissa, you can sense untruths yes? Let's hear what that cook has got to say back at camp. And we best keep tabs on that wizard."
Fargen pulls out the pearl of power and renews his presence with Moradin.
Nobody sighs before turning back to Fargen and Kissa while rubbing the back of his neck. "W-well good news is, it's definitely dead. But unless it, uhm, was incredibly capable of ripping flesh from b-bones, it seems those yelling before hadn't quite, uhm.. been killed at least. We should-" But he doesn't finish before spying more people entering the swamp, confusing him for a second. "O-oh, wait. That must've gotten a rescue party going. Th-that's good at least!"
At that, he all but eagerly follows Fargen back to the camp before having a small epiphany. "I-It might be best for me to remain out of sight again. J-just in case. But uhm, th-that's a good idea, Fargen." He said. Then unless otherwise it's suggested he stays visible, he once again [Tooltip Not Found] from view before the group reached sight of the camp, but intended to keep following the pair at the very least.
Fargen sighs, "Another day, another evil. Let's see what tomorrow brings."

Kissa nods happy for an excuse to be away from the swamp.
So back to camp? The two dwarves are happy to see you, Millie states "Sorry your food is cold," She points to the pot. Dorrin asks are you setting up Watch, and where is the gnome and dragon bourn?
"That gnome seemed a little shifty. I think we may be better off without Jemna. As for the Dragonborn, well...I think he's also gone. We seem to be losing folks on this caravan. How many days left?"
Fargen sets up the first watch. "Longest night ever...." he grumbles.
"Y-yea, uhm... I-I'm honestly surprised noone has approached you too about it, seeing as your kind of our, uhm... w-well, employers." Nobody further confirms. "B-but, uhm, I-I supposed to get ahead of any rumors in regards to our, ehm... D-dragonborn companion. I-I think, er, uhm, a-assume he's being falsely accused of murder and presumed on the run." He confesses. Nobody is then quick to raise his hands in surrender and tacks on, "F-f-for the record, I'm sure he's innocent! But... w-well you know how-" He stops there for a second, and then gets a really pensive look on his face as he mutters "Actually, they're so rare in the region I suppose it wouldn't be-" But never finishes the thought before shaking his head and wave his hands dismissively.
"A-anyways, you can rest assure that, uhm, he won't be continuing on this journey. A-and I suppose on his behalf, w-we do apologize for the, eh, inconvenience." Nobody said to the dwarves, bowed his head, and then lifted it once more while placing a hand over his chest. "B-but I assure you the rest of us remain committed to the job, and we'll take, erm, extra precautions to assure the safety of both yourselves and, uhm, your property." At that, Yanda chooses that point to swoop in from one of the trees he'd been keeping from watch over the camp the whole time to land on Nobody's shoulders, and gives the pair a thumbs up.

Kissa is still more than a little confused as to what exactly is going on but is on the verge of firmly resolving not to trust a single individual in this strange, cold land....
Dorrin looks down and spits in to the fire "Best, yet, he probably answered the call, of the fight against the darkness in these here parts. I guess my coin couldn't stop that urge." He shrugs, "Happy to hear some of my guards will still be with us, it's only a day from here, then we'll part ways at Waterdeep."
Nobody can but give a noncommittal shrug, as his own connections and understanding of the dragonborn was.... well, they were far more than mere acquaintances, but still had a ways to go before come true friends, as far as the tiefling was concerned. "Mn. Th-that's good news at least. Th-though I can't personally say I'm looking forward to return to the deep, and all their regulations." He sighed. "R-regardless, thank you both for understanding." Both Nobody and Yanda bow their heads at that, before really digging into their evening meal. But as unbothered as the tiefling was by any actual coldness, he would offer to warm up the food of others, if they so wish.

Fargen nods at Dorrin's estimate to Waterdeep. "A dwarf does not veer from his word often, least of all this one. Best of luck in your travels after tomorrow."
Dorrin shakes his head "We're setting up shop in Waterdeep, no traveling anymore just, business and family."
The night goes uneventful, as does the travel, You come to the outskirts of Waterdeep, when you part ways with the two dwarves, in a town called Undercliff. "We have kin here in the town we'll stay with, we'll be alright, there's a couple of bars and Inns here for you to stay in since night fall is coming, soon " The dwarf pays you what he promised, and adds a small keg of ale, then heads further into town.
The cultist move on, too Waterdeep, course you already know, where they are going.
Fargen responds, "Let me check in with our contact if we had new instructions...."
Fargen once again casts Sending and delivers the message to Leosin Erlanthar"Cavarn stopped at Undercliff and cultists are entering Waterdeep. What are new orders?"
After the spell completes, Fargen uses his pearl of power to recover the 3rd level spell slot
Even if but a small keg both Nobody and Yanda grimaced at the idea of trying to carrying it, but sighed in relief should Kissa or Fargen volunteering for the role. "Uhh... Oh by Azuth! I-I know I took some notes here somewhere." Nobody scrambled root about his person for notes. "O-oh! Good idea, Fargen! Though, uh, probably, uhmm, should head into the city proper anyhow. Th-th-though I doubt we have the coin, I'd at least like to try and maybe see if I can purchase a scroll or two, and-" He snaps his fingers then points at Kissa. "'Th-this is your first time so far north, yes? If so, you'll definitely want to get inside and see the sights! ... er, uhm if there's time of course."
