Jasuri's watch goes without incident. A few minutes after sunrise, Musharib wakes up, greets you, and heads into the jungle. He comes back a little while later with what appears to be a large rodent. He skins it, butchers it, and the cooks it over the remains of yesterday's fire. He also fills his waterskin at the rain catchers.
Henry and Gimdir wake to the sounds of buzzing insects, chirping birds, and flowing water as rain slowly drips through the thick jungle canopy. You can see Jasuri and Musharib on the shore eating some sort of meat. When he notices you are awake, Musharib speaks
"Good, you two finally be awake. We should be leaving soon. There be plenty of water over there (He points to the rain catchers. They hold four gallons of water each) and if you be needing food I have this (He points to the meat cooking over the fire. It looks like about 6 pounds (about 3.6 kg))."
If any of you want to forage for food and water before you continue exploring now would be the time for that. If not, Jasuri can set your pace (Slow for +5 bonus on Navigation and quieter movement but a potential penalty to distance traveled, Normal for no bonuses or penalties, and Fast for a potential bonus to distance traveled but -5 penalty to Navigation and Passive Perception) and you can continue exploring. Right now it's about an hour or two after sunrise and it is raining lightly.
Henry wakes up to see Fizz dancing in the light rain. He just sighs as gets up and stretches. He turns to Musharib and thanks him as he heads over to the meat roasting over the fire. As he is carving off some meat, he turns and looks back at Fizz who is still dancing and playing in the rain. "Oi Fizz, come over here and be useful. Go to the rain catcher fill up these waterskins."
Gimdir will gather the water from his own rain catcher and accompany everyone else at the fire to eat. He doesn't make much of an effort to shelter himself from the rain, and looks fit to blow up into a rage... as usual.
As Henry sits around the fire, he notices the sound of footsteps somewhere in the forest. When Gimdir gathers his water, he notices this sound as well. Musharib and Jasuri also seem to notice this, and the visually perk up at the noise
Jasuri wants to set a normal pace for the day. When he hears footsteps he will ready the canoes for a quick escape if necessary, and sneak toward the sound with a javelin in his hand.
Jasuri sees nothing unusual until about 130 yards in, when he notices a trail of small footsteps and drag marks on the jungle floor. Jasuri can also see a small camp (only one tent) behind a boulder pile on the shore of the river. Upon closer inspection, Jasuri observes that the trail leads from the camp to somewhere in the jungle.
Henry will turn to Fizz and speaking to him in Ignan, he tells Fizz to go observe the small camp. Once Fizz is near and hiding, Henry closes his eyes and using his link with Fizz looks through Fizz's vision to see what there his, communicating with him telepathically to guide the mephit around the camp. If he sees anything of note, he will describe it to the rest of the party.
Through Fizz, Henry can see that this looks like a relatively well-made two-to-three person camp. The tent in the camp looks strikingly similar to the tents sold in Port Nyanzaru, and there appears to be someone sleeping in the tent.
Henry explains to the group what he sees as he sees it. When done, he telepathically tells Fizz to return and asks the group what they think should be done.
Gimdir responds in his typical irritated manner, "We be one day from the city. Of course there be others in the jungle for their own reasons. We be needing to get a job done. If you be insisting on checking in on them, do not be accepting to be racing lizards!"
A very tall muscular humanoid exits the tent, while awkwardly getting into his armor. He looks to be about 7 feet tall, tanned skin and no hair on his head. Those who are familiar with his race will recognize him as a Goliath, and he seems fairly young. He is wearing scale mail (or at least is partially wearing it while stumbling out of the tent), he also has a huge Warhammer and a Shield with a symbol (three lighting bolts radiating from a central point) engraved into it. He seems somewhat calm, and slightly panicked at the same time, but definitely in a hurry to get up a ready. He starts calling out, in a deep, but smooth voice:
Who is out there? I can hear you! What happened to Hunfy.. I mean Hunferho? Did you take him?
He starts turning around on himself looking into the forest around him, holding his Warhammer and his Shield tightly in his grips.
Henry turns to the group, "I guess our position is given away now." he says with his usual manic grin.
He stands up, and making little effort to hide himself, he walks in the direction of the Goliaths Camp. When he gets there, with a mocking bow, he introduces himself. "My name is Henry, greatest steam wizard you have never heard off. On my shoulder is Fizz, who I am surprised you heard, as he ways next to nothing, but he is also a clutz." Fizz just grumbles at that but does not speak up. "And My my, you are a big fellow, what is your name?"
Name’s Nas’dorgleyfyül, most people just call me Naz! Who’s asking? And your Fizz cloud didn’t give you away, what I heard sounded more like a grumpy Dwarf....
Naz stares at the people standing there, keeping a safe distance and not letting his guard down, he then adds:
Have you seen a half-elf about yee tall, not the most pleasing to look at but he’s a fun guy? He left all his stuff behind... I believe I heard something during the night, I just thought he left the tent to relieve himself... but now I’m thinking something worse might have happened to him! He mentioned seeing masked creatures in the forest around us yesterday, but I thought it was a weak attempt to scare me.. maybe he did see something. Do you guys have a fire going? I smell smoke!
While still keeping an eye on the characters around his camp, Nas starts searching the ground for clues on Hunferho’s whereabouts, any tracks, broken branches, maybe even smells or noises.
Survival: 19
He will check in the direction the smoke seems to be coming from.
Gimdir takes his turn to get some sleep.
Jasuri will finish whatever is left of his watch and try to get a full nights rest if he can.

Henry will go to Jasuri and tell him to wake him for the final watch before going to lie down for some rest.
Jasuri's watch goes without incident. A few minutes after sunrise, Musharib wakes up, greets you, and heads into the jungle. He comes back a little while later with what appears to be a large rodent.

Gimdir yells over from the other camp, "What be taking so long? We be having a gauntlet to rescue!"
(Nas thinks that the smoke was probably coming from Henry's camp. He also sees a trail of broken branches and marks on the ground leading south)
Musharib, who has been very quiet for most of the trip, agrees with Gimdir.
"Yeah. I say we go right now. Nothing be more important than a holy dwarven relic!"
(to Jasuri) "What be so interesting over there anyway?"
Nas follows the marks on the ground leading south... slowly and as quietly as he can with all his equipment.
