Veeshal looks at the newcomer, to Sorrow, then Arashi, and back again. He says in a low aside to Millwater ‘I think the horned lady is looney-she’s not ugly. How can she be related to Arashi? And I assume the other is a type of dragonborn? I’ve never met one in real life but that’s gotta be what-she? is. Wadda you think?’ All said in one long breath.
"Greetings friend!" Lifts his open plams up to the newcomer "I suspect your right about strange lands, i feel farther from the Dionysus monastery than a night's travel. " while continues keeping pace with his new found companions.
Turns to Veeshal "She follows the crying God, the Broken, Ilmatar. She will open up when we earn her trust. Couldn't ask for better company for going into danger with."

"Hello Azurewrath. Well, I find that most people are afraid of me as well until they get to know me. We would welcome you along to join us as we try to figure out who is attacking the caravans along the side of the road." *He then thinks for a moment, and realizes this individual came out of the woods* "Why didn't you approach us outside the tavern? Approaching us from the woods seems quite suspicious." (Arashi will try to glean some insight into Azurewrath to see if their intentions are true)
As you make acquaintances with the blue Dragonborn the other Tabaxi that was in the inn catches up to the party after looking a bit more at the people and the vendors around the village. Now the seven of you once again move towards the south. As you are ready to walk across the bridge a younger female is running as fast as she can towards you She keeps glancing back behind her. You do not see anything pursuing her but that is what she is acting like. She appears to be around 12-13 years old.
What do you do next?
The girl is running north coming across the bridge towards you just to clarify
Soldin watches carefully as the girl approaches, his eyes glancing between the girl and the route behind her, trying to spot anything tailing her or anything suspicious in her hands. He nudges his nearest acquaintance, the Aiel and motions his head towards the girl.
"Hey, I think things are about to get more interesting" he add nonchalantly as he hunkers down slightly, ready to intercept something chasing the child or to greet the child as she gets closer to the group.
Sorrow, after a quick glance where Soldin indicated, unlimbers the huge axe and squares up to face the runner, looking for what-or who-had sent the youngling fleeing in such haste.
Perception 16
~correction after directions of travel were clarified~
Veeshal cocks his head sideways, looking towards the runner as well. Laying his hand to the warhammer at his side, he does not clear it for action but plants his feet and focuses on the running figure.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The joy of spotting another Tabaxi was quickly quenched while making his way to greet, as he spots the child. Taking swift action as adrenaline floods his body and goes godspeed with feline agility! Races to intercept child with arms outstretched. "Quickly too me child!"
If the child accepts being lifted, quickly pick up and sprint past Soldin and Arashi's line. Purring calmly for the child's benefit and to temper my mind to better perceive my surroundings.
[If the child runs past me, I'll follow the child using my body as a shield to protect and dodge if confronted. Gently grabbing the child to a stop past Soldin and Arashi's line.]
I will need a d20 + your agility to make a successful catch of the running female child roll If you miss I will need another agility roll with advantage to keep from falling down. The DC for the save vs falling is equal to your Dexterity score.
The restr of you look past the bridge but do not see anything chasing the young lady. You can see that once the river flows under the bridge moving towards the west it will slowly bend to the south and follow the road for a while before you lose it in the trees. Trees line both sides of the road as it heads south. Like the river you soon lose sight of the road.
*Arashi says nothing but observes this child running towards them and tries to discern what may be chasing her. Squinting his eyes to try and focus on details that may be further out.*
Veeshal glances at the kit, then opens his vestment and pulls out the tome he has stashed there. He places a hand on her back and croons soft encouraging words to her.
Millwater fails spectacularly! The little girl not only dodges the tabaxi's intercept but jinks at last second to counter causing Millwater to face plant into the dirt! Back arching, legs over his head. Tail twitching. Wiping the dirt from his eyes, staring at the running figure in disbelief. Thinks to himself (this child is supernatural!)
Sorrow gives a quick glance to the acrobatic tabaxi sprawling beside her, gives a wry smile and small shake of her head. In a strange whisper ‘Thought all cats did spit baths, not dirt or dust baths…’ then returns her gaze back south. ‘Did anybody catch the name of the kit or reason for running? Cant see anything out there that could or would strike that much terror, or cause such a flight reaction.’
Azurewrath scans the area to see if she noticed anything that would cause the child to run.
I definitely didn’t catch the name I was focused on the Tabaxi. Definitely not normal behavior though. I’m used to people running away from me not towards and past me.
---- Dex Score 19, Roll to catch the girl = 16 (12+4) ---- Agility Saves with Advantage vs Falling = 15 (9+6) and 24 (18+6)
Soldin's expression softens with a slight smile. "Easy there Child, why the rush? Is something after you?" he offers, slight concern in his tone, trying to calm the child.
Soldin is able to capture the girl as she is running past after Millwaters failed and dramatically attempt. As she is held she starts telling a interesting story. "I was fishing just beyond the bend of the road There is a trail I follow to the best fishing spot in the river I know. I saw some men that looked like trouble coming towards me. I stood up to see what they may have wanted and it turns out they were wanting me. I could the sneers and the the way they looked at me made me uneasy. So I dropped my pole and fish and started walking back to the village when they attempted to surround me. I escaped but they tore my shirt." She shows the ripped shirt that was almost ripped from her. "I thought they were going to do bad things to me so I fled back here as fast as I could. Do you think that you could help me get my fish and fishing pole back?"
When asked she will tell them she lives here with her mother and father. Her name is Karie

Examine the child for injury and offer water. "You are safe now. What is your name? What are you running from?"

Sorrow huffs as the kit comes even then passes her. She’ll slide to put the kit fully behind her, blocking the way and sheltering her as well.

Lost in thought and distracted by the child, Tail Feathers laughs softly at the other tabaxi's attempt to catch the child.
More of a quiet type, she listens as the young one speaks, and a soft growl stucks in her throat. "Did you see what they looked like?"
