Xelazhia strides over to the rest of the group, a little unsteady. She looks as if she’s about to add something to the conversation, but as she opens her mouth, she gags again, and rushes over to the side to to retch once more into a small shrub.
The plants whisper to Amanita that they had seen a green scaly creature and offer gestures pointing toward the town.
With regards to Vuist's comments, the human man finally stands up after a few more dry heaves, "Name's Miguel... I'd prefer that over 'hey you.'" He blinks as Pouf seemingly disappears, "Where did the mutt go? Damn thing's wastin' a spell... unless..." Miguel examines the group, "Say... they mentioned our powers, do you guys have a trick you all got? Maybe we should coordinate a tad, eh? I imagine that tabaxi, Pouf was it? I figure her going 'poof' is part of her trick."

Miguel holds Pouf for a moment before turning red and tossing her away, "Y-Yes, well, I'm not quite as impressive. I can be a bit helpful in combat, but, it isn't something to rely upon like your, uh, pouf-ing ability..." he casually puns.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"A green scaled creature was seen heading toward town," Amanita informs the others. She nods to Miguel. "I can talk to plants," she says plainly.
"Shall we continue on? Oh..." she sees the elven woman still heaving into the shrub. "Here, this might help." and she will again druidcraft the scent of mint centered around Xelazhia's head.
She will also keep an eye out for tracks, etc. Survival: 13
Wiping the traces of vomit from her mouth, Xelazhia straightens, still unsteady, but improving. “Appreciated. Amanita, was it? Very botanical name. Some of my favorite ingredients come from that genus.”
To Miguel, she answers. “My...abilities are mostly alchemical in nature. Most importantly, I have developed a means of placing any willing individual into a state of unconsciousness that is outwardly indistinguishable from death. This has some practical purposes, many of them oriented towards research and testing.”
As you walk and talk, you find yourself on the edge of town, Almdalir as Mr. Jack called it. You are east of the town looking westward. You see some farms dedicated to some sort of greenery, although its hard to tell at a distance what it could be. Honestly, you've found yourselves in a hamlet of sorts and there are very few people outside. There seems to be an abandoned guard station to your right as you wander closer.

Vuist comments, "Pouf proofed again. Very well. Let's check in with the guard station. Start our search. Be on the lookout for signs of violence... I don't expect our queries to be too subtle."
Vuist heads over to the guard station to search for clues. He asks if any of the others are specialized in investigations, as that isn't his cup of tea.
Pouf goes poof and fades out from the Material Realm. As always, the Ethereal Plane paints the material world in a lovely turquoise color as the little dog hops toward the guard station. Behind her, she leaves the muted, gray forms of her companions. Something out them to the laymen would seem ghostly, but Pouf knows better at this point what ghosts really look like... speaking of which, she happens to see some now! She can't open the door to the station here on the Ethereal Plane, but she just hops onto a stone before a side window and takes a peek.
Within she spies a couple of ghosts! They seem to still have their shape and Pouf can make out the finer details of their outfit, haircuts - all of it! They must be recently dead, although recent could mean just now all the way up to a few years... they look like soldiers. Ostheimer soldiers! How interesting!... Not.

Coming toward the guard station, Amanita sees there are very faint footsteps here. The boot prints don't seem to match the description of their quarry. Ducking down and examining the tracks here, it seems whoever was here came and left not too long before you arrived. The tracks were left by someone not worried about being seen and are only obscured due to the light snowfall.

Pouf giggles, which echoes throughout the empty plane, “Ha, doors. Zat is funny.” She phases through it and reappears inside the house.

"Huh, look a-tat. It's one of those kobolds,"one of the ghosts points at Pouf. "Thing walked clear through the door."
"Did it now? Can't say I was paying attention, I was busy counting my many regrets..." the other ghost sounds overly somber and melodramatic.
"Oh here we go 'gain,"the previous guy shakes his head. "Wasn't your fault, Hakon- Wait a sec."The ghost blinks as he looks at Pouf. "I think the dog is lookin' at us."
"Impossible."

"Blessed Arcturus, she knows your name,"the still unnamed ghost grabs Hakon by the shoulders and shakes him.
"Unhand me!" Hakon shrugs him off, "You gave her my name, Fred. Anyway," he stands up and dusts off little clouds of stardust from his person then extends a hand, "Hello little Pouf, I'm Hakon as you know. This is Fred. Recently deceased?"

"Hmm, hard to say. Time's passing is odd," Hakon looks at Fred for an answer.
"Eh, the war was still going fierce when we died. Our post here got overtaken in the night... glad King Asmund had a handle on things in the end."

Pouf winks saucily at the firbolg and then (15), poofs out of existence again.

Pouf nods, “Oh yes, it’s very“ (15), “reliable. I only poof when I really want to.”
In other words, it’s not reliable whatsoever hahah
