Gribz will smile and help the Kenku to his feet "Excellent. You can join Chad and I up on the right-side cliff overlooking the cave entrance." To Chad he'll say "Agreed, I learned my lesson last time."
With that, the group will begin to once again settle down for the evening, with Zack and Gribz continuing their first watch, followed by Lilith taking second watch.
(OOC - This is still a long rest using the previous perception rolls from before. If you each want to describe where you're sleeping, if you're still keeping an eye open or returning to a heavy slumber or if there is a quiet conversation that you wish to have then take this time to say. There was also a mention of a campfire somewhere in the conversations that just took place. I just want to say that there was no campfire as I believe it was decided that that would bring too much attention to any enemies)
Zack wood, when it was his turn to rest breast with a sword at the ready just in case. The bird was just a little bit... Too friendly in the situation.
(" if it's well known that there are goblins rating this path, why weren't sildar and gundren prepared? And why didn't they warn us goblins might be there. I highly doubt one town would know about it, but the other wouldn't") too many holes..
Zack would rest until the end of his time to rest and get up to do some morning stretches, but he skipped out on doing his normal physical routine for the sake of saving energy, and not drawing attention to the camp.
After that, since he likely woke up before everyone else does, as soldiers usually rise at the crack of dawn, he would wait for Nadia to wake up before going over to the wolf.
" I think I'm going to name him fenrir." He would say before adding " I also considered calling him nanaki, but somehow fenrir just seams to fit."
(Ooc - Rolling with advantage because I dont understand how the other method works, will need the other way explained, lol)
Shiv would wake up curled up tightly into a ball with drool running down his face and soaking into the grass below him. Waking up, he would stretch out and let out a few small Kaws as he runs his slender fingers along the new scar forming over his wound he received the night before. After a moment, the Kenku would look out towards the goblin cave for any signs of activity, crouching low trying to remain hidden near his companions.
Once Nadia wakes, Zack gets her to help with his newly named friend as she had suggested the day before. The wolf watches them both, following a few of their commands in an untrusting manner. As Zack goes to pet it on its head, it snaps its teeth at Zacks hand before remembering its place.
(1 Failure. 1 Success)
Shiv sneaks around to look for activity near the cave entrance, this is a bird that has been quiet before. His footsteps sound light and his breathing slowed. As he peers into the cave he can’t see any movement from within.
Shiv would make his way back to the others, following the same path he had just made back to the camp. "No sign of goblins" The kenku would chirp to the others as his head tilts and twitches as he looks from person to person. "Maybe still *makes snoring sound*.. we attack soon?" the kenku would say as he bounces around the camp excitedly. "Going to find Shiny things... *Makes sound of coins clanking together* he sings as he goes.
Gribz will wake and stretch before having a ration consisting of dried fruits, nuts, and jerky. After finishing his breakfast and donning his gear, Gribz will walk over to Shiv. "Good idea. Let's head down this cliff and wait for the others amongst the trees where we can see the entrance to the cave."
Stealth: 10
Perception: 7
As they wait, Gribz will talk quietly with Shiv. "Where are you from? How'd you get so good at being stealthy? Do you have any family in the area?"
Lilith, already awake from her watch and having eaten her breakfast earlier, will follow Gribz down the cliff. She quickly waves her hand and casts guidance on herself.
When Gribz asks him to accompany him back to the cave, Shiv would nod and end his song. Bouncing along next to the goblin, he would once again crouch and keep an eye out for threats. When asked about his past and family, the kenku would lock eyes with the Griz and tilt his head to the side before replying. "I'm from Waterdeep... My mom and dad still live there" Shiv would say as his eyes get wide with excitement, trying to keep his voice down. "No one asks me about me..." He would excitedly whisper in a mixture of children's voices. "I always been sneaky... Use it to find things people lost... Men in bar would pay me to return stolen things to them... " Shiv's eyes will lower as finishes his sentence and his shoulders will fall a bit... "I... left Waterdeep to find new people to work for... nicer people" He would mention just above a whisper as all the excitement seems to have left his body and his attention returns to the cave. "What your name" The kenku would whisper after a moment, his head turning every so slightly back towards the goblin.

Nadia woke up slightly cranky at the events that had transpired the night before, the ranger having decided to eat her breakfast alone to put her in a better mood. She managed a soft smile when approached about helping train the wolf, taking a moment to stretch and put her things away before hopping right to it.
”This one is gonna need a bit more time it seems,” She deducted after their little training session. “But all bonds take time, don’t they?” She gives a short laugh then looks to Zack. “I can tell you and Fenrir will be good friends, just not as soon as I thought.” The elf watches as the others gather themselves and start for the cave again, she as well following suit, picking up her things and most importantly her bow and quiver. “Let’s get to it then.”

"Interesting. Thanks for sharing. My name is Gribz, I don't really have a home. My parents and I belong to a group of performers known as Thelassian's Travelling Theatre. We travel all over Faerun performing as we go. I'm a theatrical gladiator. My friend Turok and I act out famous battles and lesser-known local legends. I signed up to escort a wagon load of goods to Phandalin with these folks, but as you can see, things aren't going as planned." Gribz runs a hand through his hair "I hope they wake up soon, I'm worried Sildar might be killed or harmed before we can get to him."
Chad will wake up and tuck away his sleeping mask. He squints as his eyes adjust to the light. His cloak hangs from a tree nearby and he dons it before heading down to the cave entrance with the others. "Morning, gents," Chad say groggily. "Any action inside the cave? I can not see all that well in the dark." Chad will draw his wand and stand ready for anything to come out.

Zack
Heh, yeah.. I mean we did just kill everyone he knew... so It's expected, but I feel he'll come around. And I know what you mean. My CO was a .. good friend. he taught me the values I hold today. He encouraged my dream, saying 'All soldiers need to have a dream. And never let it go. And never let go of your pride as a soldier' I was with him for years as my platoon, patrolled the kingdoms near Myth Drannor, and old elvaan city next to Cormyr. Lot of raids happened there, usually on the edge of the smaller towns and forested areas. I felt fulfilled, helping save people who couldn't help themselves, but .. Eventually I .. had to quit. Personal reasons.
After the event with the wolf, Zack quietly spoke with Nadia, Lillith, and the wolf, but not the others.Wait, just a moment, before we go... Giving them some quick tips over the course of the next ten minutes about fighting in small spaces, where you could be ambushed. Even if they were mad with him, they could see his words rang true to a point.. Granting Nadia, Lillith, Fenrir, and himself +4 temp HP.
Also, about last night. Sorry. Meeting someone for a job at a tavern or pub is one thing.. someone sneaking up in the middle of the night is another. I'll die to protect you guys if I have to, it's all part of my mission in life, leading to my endgoal. Between everything that happened yesterday, I must have been more on edge than usual. Normally I would have knocked the person out, but I thought he might have been the goblins.. somehow having discovered where we were, and perhaps they had some sort of mage that could disguise himself, or he was someone working with them, or... I think you get the point...
After that, Zack would nod that he was ready to join the others, Patting his hip, and the wolf falling into line. Initially it was confused as to what he was doing, before falling in line.
Zack Stealth: 17
Fenrir Stealth: 10
Both using Passive Perception.
As they wen't, unless one of the others stopped them on the way, zack would eat a third of a single ration, chewing on some of the jerky, giving the other half of that third to Fenrir to eat.
You each make your way into the cave, slowly while keeping quiet and keeping watch. You follow the path that leads next to the stream. As you make your way in, Lilith spots some footprints in the dirt that look fresh, on top of the ground that had been smoothed over slightly the day before. The area that the wolves had previously been remains deserted to the right. The group continues up the slope, following the river but stop when they hear the sound of hushed whispers from ahead, just over the sound of the slow running stream.
Gribz will suggest Shiv take point, as he can scout ahead. Gribz will follow up with Zack if Zack wants to join him. Gribz will say to Chad "Watch our backs." maintaining eye contact a second longer than seems necessary and tilting his head toward Zack.
(Ooc - last, about 10 feet behind the group, bow out and ready!)

Chad will nod to Gribz and move toward the back with Nadia. Chad will be second from last. He will also need to cast light on his wand. He's going to hide it under his cloak for the time being only illuminating enough to see just in front of him.

Zack
Zack will be at the front, though a moderate distance away from Gribz to the side, against the 'left' wall still in the stream. Fenrir, who has apparently mastered the art of stealth just behind him.
Zack will also be ready to Dodge if it's clear enough an attack is coming.
Fenrir will, with his perfect stealth, remain hidden behind Zack as a wall, and if an attack occors that is on the Same 'level' of the tunnel, Zack will command, it to 'Bite' at the weapon arm of whatever enemy is closest. If the enemy is on a higher level, it will hold this action until either an enemy comes to the same level, or the group goes to the enemy.
