Talen gets his ass back back to the group and draw a map on the ground.
"I'm thinking we cross the river and move up on the right side where we heard voices. Dealing with those first before moving into the cave." He pause to let others offer alternatives.
"Or we could try to sneak into the cave from the left side of the opening. But we risk being spotted and end up in between two group of opponents and that's not tactically sound, you know."
"All right, all ready to sneak up on them? Let's first go a bit further away and cross the river out of their sight." Talen leads the group a bit south so we can jump across the river well out of sight from the guards outside the cave. Then we find cover and sneak back north.
Morg lets out a sigh at the mention of sneaking up. He will hold and wait to rush in once the sneaky ones have started their attack. Morg has his axe in hand and is ready to charge in.
(I guess non of us succeed all that well ha ha. On the other hand the guards were talking so perhaps we can still sneak up undiscovered. Well thats optimism :) )
The water is more stream than river and both Talen and Charmine jump over it without issue, though Talen’s landing isn’t the quietest thanks to the undergrowth on the bank. You both pause for a moment, but there’s no obvious sign that you’ve been noticed. The bushes on the other side of the stream are much thicker than on the trail side. You might be able to make your way through them, but it would be hard to do so stealthily due to the close entanglement of the branches.

You both make it across the stream, Morg catching Feng when he stumbles slightly on the landing. Staying on the other side, you see Kiblin holding the tips of her ears and looking worried.

Great axe in hand, Morg feels his blood getting hot in preparation for a fight, his muscles tighten and his mind becomes clear and focused on the area in front of them.

I would rather not have an enemy at our back who could trap us in the cave. I agree with Charmine.

Kneeling in front of Kiblin, Feng whispers to her What has you so worries little one?
She looks up at Feng with wide eyes, but says nothing.

Feng slowly draws his weapon and shield whispering to the group I think we should ready our arms
Talen draws the greatsword when Feng whispers the warning.
