The Aarakocra grins darkly. In a low and husky voice, he says, “This is for Skyhaven,” and proceeds to bury his Shortsword to the hilt in the hobgoblin’s back.
“Well, it’s right over there,” and her points to the nearby encampment. “There’s another group near here, I think it would be best if we tried to meet and coordinate our attack”
Rhi bows to the other Aarakocra and says, "Your wisdom is poignant. It's best to deal with evil through strength. But affirm the good in others through trust. In this way we are prepared for evil, but we encourage good."
The Aarakocra gives Rhi a curious look. “You sound just like the mentors at Skyhaven. Before… Let’s just find the others” He shakes his head and returns to his aura of dark resolve.
As you go over the hill, you see the Goblinoid Army camp spread out before you. In the middle of all of the campfires and tents is one very large tent, possibly several tents put together to form one massive pavilion. Flags, pennants and banners fly atop of and festoon the tent.
Down near where he left them, you can see the other team fighting some of the goblins.
"Sooo...Rhi and...New person, what does everyone think of you two reinforcing the other team as a highly visible distraction while the rest of us sneak in from the rear?"
Primrose and Waltz, as the two aarokocra Rhi and Varen take off to aid the other team, it looks like you two are left alone to find the warlord and deal with him. (ShadowQueen12 has been inactive for nearly two weeks; so, I had to deactivate her character.)
As you look down the hill, the camp is in an uproar. Someone attacked a squad of goblins and killed their hobgoblin squad leader. A fire has started to burn one of the tents in the area. If you decide to continue into the camp, I need a stealth check with advantage due to the distraction of the other team.
Prim raises an eyebrow, & smiles. "Yay!", she says relatively quietly. "We got reinforcements!"
The Aarakocra grins darkly. In a low and husky voice, he says, “This is for Skyhaven,” and proceeds to bury his Shortsword to the hilt in the hobgoblin’s back.
Okay. The hobgoblin is dead, skewered on the bird man's sword. Two goblins run away in the opposite direction of the camp.
The Aarakocra turns, and mutters, “Oh no you don’t,” under his breath and draws his bow to fire two arrows at the fleeing goblins.
Attack 1: 15 to hit. Damage: 13 piercing
Attack 2: 26 to hit. Damage: 10 piercing
Both goblins go down with arrows in their backs.
The Aarakocra says, “Another step towards my vengeance,” then turns to the others and says, “So, what’s your deal? You here for the goblins?”
Prim cheerfully explains "Why, yes, we are. Trying to take out the chief in fact. You wouldn't have seen the main encampment, would you? "
“Well, it’s right over there,” and her points to the nearby encampment. “There’s another group near here, I think it would be best if we tried to meet and coordinate our attack”

(Does it look like the camp's attention is on the other group?)
(Yes, the camp's attention is definitely on the other group.)
"Sooo...Rhi and...New person, what does everyone think of you two reinforcing the other team as a highly visible distraction while the rest of us sneak in from the rear?"
The Aarakocra grins darkly. “My name is Varen, and I’d be glad to kill some goblins” He takes to the air with his longbow and flies towards Team East.
Varen and Rhi, if you decide to join Team East, go to their thread and roll initiatives.
As you continue looking, what appears at first to be a small campfire quickly engulfs one of the smaller tents.

(Who should make the stealth check?)
