"Fine, if that is what you all want to do, no skin off my back."Peran finally says, motioning for the others to come help hide the wagon. He ensures the oxen are freed from the wagon, leaving them hobbled and tied to a tree nearby using a length of rope from his pack.
OOC @DM: Let me know if/what kind of roll you want for hiding the wagon.
Tangle leans against a tree until the party is ready to head out. Once the wagon is hidden and everyone is ready she waves her arm forward at Rosella. “After you sweet maiden.”
Tangle will stay about 50 feet behind rosella and proceeds quietly looking for signs of dragging.

Diodato walks beside Tangle behind Rosella, with his short bow at the ready. He keeps his sense pealed to try and sense if any goblins approach through the woods.
Grum follows just behind Tangle, with bow at the ready, eyes peeled for anything in the trees.
"We should all try to be as quiet as possible, too. I know there are 5 of us, and we dispatched the last ambush easily enough, but best to be the ones ambushing."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Rosella doesn't respond to the comment, going ahead on the path as quietly and quickly as she can, keeping track of the tracks. She stays just off the path in the woods as she does this. If she notices anything she will immediately that looks like another ambush she with head back to the party and inform them. If she locates anything else she will jump back onto the path and wait for the party to catch up.
Alright making a guess on the things i need to roll for.
The portion of Natural Explorer that might be useful here from Revised Ranger (not sure how long we'll be on the trail):
In addition, you are skilled at navigating the wilderness. You gain the following benefits when traveling for an hour or more: • Difficult terrain doesn’t slow your group’s travel. • Your group can’t become lost except by magical means. • Even when you are engaged in another activity while traveling (such as foraging, navigating, or tracking), you remain alert to danger. • If you are traveling alone, you can move stealthily at a normal pace. • When you forage, you find twice as much food as you normally would. • While tracking other creatures, you also learn their exact number, their sizes, and how long ago they passed through the area.
Wonder lets out a small soft and sad growl and huff when you tell him he has to stay with the oxen and the cart. But realizing he's needed for something important he sticks his little bear chest out and stands by the oxen, actively looking for any sort of danger.
As you all head deeper into the woods, Rosella, (only because you rolled a natural one on an active perception check, sorry) you were too focused on the tracks and where they went, particularly interested in a set of tracks that went around in a sort of loop that you failed to notice the snare in front of you and activate the trap. Make a dex saving throw.
The movement of the snare closing in around your feet catches your eyes and you deftly move your foot out of the way just as the rope is pulled up with a loud whizzing sound where you notice a weight is dropping on the other side of a tree.
Diodato heard the snap of the rope and the thump of the weight of the trail. Shifting his focus he decides it is probably better to watch his own feet at this time and allow any noises from the woods alert him to threats.
Hanging back at the end of the group, Peran does his best to make sure his armor doesn't make too much noise. It had been a long time since he had stalked around in nature, the last time must have been when he was still a boy, playing with friends, and he definitely wasn't wearing any armor back then. The others all seem to be in their element, however, which gives him some measure of comfort.
He lets his eyes wander away from the group, scanning the nearby forest for any sign of an ambush.
You make your way forward and, about ten minutes later, Rosella, you notice there's something strange about the forest floor ahead of you and you instantly recognize what it is. Your time in the wilds has made you aware of what should and shouldn't be part of common detritus. And what's ahead of you looks more like fabricated floor, and you realize it's a pit trap and tell the rest of the party its location and skirt around it.
"This was all prepared well in advance," Peran notes, "As if they knew people would come down this track." He lets the others draw their own conclusions, as he is not certain of the implications of it himself.
"Well spotted," Grum commends Rosella, as he takes care to avoid the trap. He turns to Peran, "Yes, they seem to have made significant efforts to protect this route from intruders. Suggests to me that there's something worth intruding on."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Tangle walks over to the pit trap, pulling out her sword to knock the twigs and leaves away and take a look into the pit. Presuming she sees a pit with some spikes at the bottom, but no creatures, bones, or other stuff, she shrugs and continues following Rosella. If there's anything down there, she'll take a closer look.

Rosella shrugs, "We must be getting closer to where they're hiding if they put traps down. Stay on your guard," her eyes never leave the tree line, like she's looking for something. "We should keep moving."
Rosella stows her swords and draws her bow again, arrow knocked as she readies to lead the group.
