Savage Harvest- adventure thread

No coincidence, Sasha thinks to herself, she would just have to find out the connection.

"Thanks Ufeli, you've been a brave scout and champion, now get some cheese and some rest." The young sheep herdress says to her pixie companion while preparing a corner in which to sleep. "Oh, everyone, this is Ufeli, he'll be coming with us to protect us from any further goblin attacks..." She says to her friends while inclining her cute head towards the tiny fey. "...right Ufeli?" She adds, turning to the pixie with a wink and a smile.

William opens the chest, it was very snuggly closed and when he pulls it open, a small cloud of dust fills the air. Inside the chest there are some extra blankets folded neatly. Underneath the blankets you find a small painted portrait of a beautiful woman, long black hair and piercing green eyes. She is wearing  a velvety red dress and emerald green wide belt. 
on the back of the painting is the name Silvia.

next to the painting there are two golden wedding goblets in a small mahogany tray, each is wrapped in a silk cloth.

"Flying pigs?" Sasha repeats with a giggle as Aaron too enters the small cabin. "What do you mean? What have you been seeing? Did you sneak away to drink some liquid courage just now?"

Aaron smiles, "Oh no no - Only joking, but I wouldn't be surprised if either showed up on this doorstep. Things just keep getting weirder the further we distance ourselves from Longsaddle. Nice to meet you, Ufeli. Glad to have you with us, we'll need all the help we can get.. " He takes a seat, rubbing his hands together and blowing on them to warm them up.

 “ right , right. Ufeli the brave, I call me…ha hah” he laughs as he settles in. 

"That's the spirit my brave fey knight of the courts of the feywild." Sasha chimes in with a warm smile as she settles in for the night.

 William feels a bit conflicted (I assume Gerty saw that he opened the chest with all the dust), he'll just take out the blankets (for now).

With the extra blankets you will be able to sleep warm on this cold night. Set up the watch schedule if you want one

(Suggested watch schedule: Luke, Will, Loran, Sasha, Aaron and Gerty.)

(Agreed)

(Good to me)

(Sure sounds good.)

William gives Luke 1 of the blankets. Wake me up when you're getting tired. I'll take the next watch.

"Thanks, I will keep the fire going for us"

Perception for watch 1: 6

Aaron finds a spot on the floor near the hearth and falls asleep relatively quickly. His limbs at times twitch as he dreams. 

Gerty buries herself under one of the blankets, grateful to be out of the storm and hope they make their destination soon.

Perception for watch 1: 8

 Luke keeps the fire warm and bright, occasionally sensing animals far off huddled to fend off the storm. The whistle of the wind and the dancing flames of the fire keep Luke occupied for the duration of his watch. Ufeli occasionally marches by with his spear and shield like a good little soldier walking the perimeter of the cabin.

( next watch)

William's Perception check: 17 (rolled in game log)

During his watch William silently open the chest again, looks at the golden goblets, but doesn't take the out. He picks up the portrait and takes it with him. Between looking around for dangers he will, at one point, look at the portrait and whispers:

Oh Silvia... what happend here? To you? And... would you get mad if we took the goblets? I don't think you need them anymore...

(Did Gerty forget to level up?)

 As William takes over for Luke, Ufeli cracks the front door and exclaims “ what the heck is this white stuff, and where does it comes from? Holy moly it’s cold…” he heads out to look about the outside, the snow is piling up so he uses the areas under the eaves to travel.

William looks into the eyes of the painting of Silvia and feels an immediate sense of familiarity. Like he has met her at some point or maybe met an ancestor of hers more likely. 
about an hour goes by, the cozy warmth of the cabin is relaxing and secure. William hears a woman screaming outside near the paddocks
