OK, so if we are all waiting in ambush, for the bearers of the light to come over to us.
Let's hope they're friendly.
@DM - We're all taking actions to hide, discern the approaching entity, or refresh spells. Are we at a point where we could ready actions to attack as well?
You can always ready an action except spells. If you plan to ready a spell you will have casted it already and at the end of its casting it will be released regardless. For example if you ready fire bolt, you have to either fire it after 6s or dissipate it harmlessly. With spells higher than cantrips, it means you can lose slots if it takes longer than their casting.

Thanks, I was more referring to whether we had time to do more stuff before the light got closer.
@Party - depending on what appears, what are we thinking as a course of action? Landrae is happy to do the chatty bit if it looks like people we can talk to. Otherwise I'd say it's better to present a stronger front and Landrae will stay as hidden as she can with an arrow knocked.
Zephyr is thinking about how out of his element he is, so at this point he's on the fence. If it's hostile, he's got his shortbow out and will strike from a hidden position. He's willing to wait and see what it is, first, though. If it looks like a peaceful party, he'll stay put for a bit to make sure it's not a ruse, then join the group.
Sorry for the delay, ISP is having to rerun a new fios cable to my house due to a gas explosion on Friday. Internet should be restored by this evening and I'll post then.

Landrae will literally stand up from her hiding spot and take a step out of it, but staying close enough that she can try to use it again if a fight ensues.
Her attempt is to persuade the man into reasonable talk. Persuasion8.
(Ugh! Well that sucks... and it is still technically a better attempt than Arwin.)
I will recast Mage Armor in case something goes wrong then.

Jin is going to attempt to be stealthy as well as they move back towards the coast.

I'll wait 24 hours before proceeding, needless to say you should tread carefully.

Exhaustion aside, I can't make a saving throw to save my life.
It's not like failing it is inherently bad or anything....
