Brandy looks back to the keep, are the alarm bells still ringing? Any signs of a conflict? He says, out loud, "should we check out the alarm bells at the keep?"
Brandy suggests to Ricavor that maybe why he his pondering such a storm, maybe he could collect some of the rain water if it is colored like the ground.
"Good Idea Brandy" Ricavor replies. I will then go about collecting some of the rainwater. Then I suggest we return to the keep (if the alarm bells are still ringing) to see what is wrong.
Brandy will agree. 22 and 23 on animal handling to turn the rig around and head back to the keep. Of course that only happens if the alarms are ringing on there is signs of distress at the keep. 17 on perception.
The bells have stopped ringing don't see anything in way of conflict but at this distance hard to tell
you are able to get the rig turned around but it will be slow going back to the keep as the road is all mud (considered rough terrain half movement requiring 2 hours to get back to the keep without risking breaking a wheel)
Just in case you wanted me to roll a religion check, it's a 19. Brandy says, "Although we can't tell from here about the status of the keep, we should head back and check out what caused the alarms to go off. Besides, I need to check on Sam. And maybe we can some answers about the storm and the violet hued water."
Ulwin will say we better stay alert because he feels the storm might be part of a ambush it's just the thing to make us turn back or to slow our progress either way going forward or back to the keep.
Ulwin will use his perception a 16 to to watch for any kind of trouble. Although he will offer his opinion that maybe the alarm bells could be a setup to draw us back lnto the trap, or to alert somebody that we are on our way. Whoever is doing the ambushes might have some kind of magic user to possibly cause this kind of weather.
"You may be right, Ulwin. It could be some devious plot by I am Lionheart(Leocor). I am duty bound to answer the alarm. But your advice may ring true, so we must be wise and keep our wits about us. Expect the unexpected. My friends, whatever caused the keep to sound the alarm during the storm was something of great malice, I think." Why? Because when the violet hued rain fell, I lost my connection with the divine. So, whatever is afoot, it is something we must take seriously. And if the keep is unharmed, what issue was it to travel a few miles out of the way. We could have a warm meal and get out of these wet clothes for a bit. Finally, Sam is there and I must know if he is okay." Brandy proceeds to cautiously drive the wagon back to the keep. Brandy says, "Keep sharp boys!"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
You start on your way when ulwinn spots them undead rising from the swamp walking up on shore their bones carry a violet hue as the water does. there are a total of 10 skeletons 50 feet in front of your path roll for initiative 89
18 on Initiative. As soon as it is his turn, Ricavor will cast Ray of Frost at one of the skeletons. 21 to hit and damage is 8 and the target is slowed by 10' until the start of my next turn
Being an aficionado of storms, does Ricavor have any idea why the storm was like that? Arcana 15 Nature 14

would be a religion check

"Great advice Ulwin." I'll keep my eyes on the horses and road and I'll leave the rest up to both of you."
Sounds like a plan

17 Ulwin will ready his short bow and take aim at one of the undead.
21 on Initiative. Are the skeletons armed? Can I cause the horses to gallop pass and or thru the skeletons? 23 on animal handling.
I meant on or thru the skeletons. me doing that all depends on the result of my animal handling roll.
18 on Initiative. As soon as it is his turn, Ricavor will cast Ray of Frost at one of the skeletons. 21 to hit and damage is 8 and the target is slowed by 10' until the start of my next turn
18 to hit and 7pts for damage.
you can try to gallop past with the wagon risk the chance of loosing a wheel due to conditions caused by rain
