Gimble moves over to sit by Sildar. “Glad we were able to rescue you. How are you doing?”
Fiddling with the clockwork frog project, he would continue. “You had asked earlier where people are from....I’m from Nisras. But I’ve been traveling for some time now. Do you travel often with your missing boss? What exactly were you traveling for to Emberhorn City? I was thinking about what could have happened to him. I think there must be more goblins. It doesn’t make sense that you woke up with goblins but he wasn’t in that cave network. I think maybe he was taken elsewhere.....or worse dead.”
@ Gerrack, Sildar accepts ration (or part of a ration) that Gerrack offers (OOC: make sure to mark off a ration for the day. @ everyone, same for anyone who had a ration, and those of you who didn't get food from Gniff and/or hunted will be using a ration. and if you decided to not eat let me know.)
@ Gimble, Sildar is eating the shared ration Gerrack gave him. Sildar takes a pause in his eating. Sildar: (to Gimble) "I am glad too." He says with a laugh. "I am much better. Being free, having fresh air, and the healing i received from Edmond have greatly improved my status." Sildar listens to Gimble's next part of the conversation. "I haven't worked with Mr. Rockseeker before. He seems like a good enough of a person. If his venture goes well i expect i will be paid equally as well. As for what we were transporting it was ordinary stuff, just supplies for his venture. The venture is a little secretive and private, but i do believe we weren't the only supply wagon." Sildar pauses for a moment. "Its possible he could have befallen a terrible fate. As i mentioned earlier i do have some pull in the Kingdom, i use to work for the crown. I might force myself out of retirement and see about improving this situation. Goblins, bandits and orcs running rampant. Travelers robbed and attacked. This is ain't right."
@ Misty and Gerrack, During the first watch, both of you feel pretty confident the camp is safe and quiet.
@ Gimble, During the second watch, you hear something... you go to check it out. and its just a raccoon trying to get into someone's backpack, you manage to scare it off with no harm done to you, the raccoon or the camp.
@ Edmond and Finnian, During the third watch, Edmond feels confident that is quiet with nothing to worry about. Finnian on the other hand is a bit more distracted and feels less confident but since Edmond hasn't said anything it must be safe.
(OOC: date and time July 20th 6:00 a.m. dawn)
The party wakes up (unless they want to sleep in.) and does their normal morning routine and has the first meal of the day.
@ Gniff, (OOC: if you are looking for animals go ahead and give me an investigation or nature check [DM's comment, because i assume Gniff didn't usually hang out so close to the roads he would know where animals would be based on his current location])

Tandon takes some tome, reading from a book in the morning before helping everyone pack up. “Quiet night last night. Next watch or next inn payment on me for those who kept watch last night, return the favor a good night’s rest”
Gimble slowly wakes and gathers his stuff together. “Thanks Tandon I appreciate it. Easy night last night just a pissy and inquisitive ración. I’ll tell ya what though, I can’t wait for a warm bed, cuz warm ground is killin me. And I think I picked a wrong spot of ground too, (he sniffs his stuff) it smells like animal piss. I swear it didn’t when I first layed down though. Maybe I was just to tired to realize it. Gona need to wash this stuff sometime soon, ugh.”

GERRACK is addressing the party
Gerrack wakes and gathers his things together. On hearing Tandon's offer, he nods in gratitude. "Your g-generous offer is m-most a-appreciated," he tells the gnome. "W-we should make h-haste back to the c-city, t-there are m-many people we n-need to s-see."
After getting prepared for the journey back to the city, Gerrack joins Gimble at the lead and also begins to scout.
Perception: 17
(OOC: I wanted to suggest that we keep an eye out on the way back in for the missing Sister Garaele from the Shrine of Luck who was last seen going in this direction, but Gerrack actually joined the party after that quest was given and hasn't heard anything about a missing person at all so far... Just a thought!)
Edmond does his morning Stretches. eats breakfast, and says to group while packing up -
A normal pace I am thinking, for the first 2 days, shall we be off, then?
The greaves and arm pieces for the splint mail he will pack in his backpack, and hang the breastplate on the outside of the pack in place of his shield. He is carrying his shield and 'hammer.
Misty has become a bit less pushy about the spellbook and showing Finnian her spells now. With the book filled with her current spells now, she is more about enjoying the walk as they head on towards town.
"Hey Finn, want to sing us one of those pirateing songs you are so fond of?" She asks with a teasing smile for the wizard.
@ Gniff, you take a stroll for 10-15 minutes (don't worry about the limitations of speak with animals, i will extend it for the purposes of story for the moment.) and you are greeted by some birds. Gniff explains he is looking for his friend Quinn. Bird: (to Gniff) "I saw him earlier today a bit aways. Should i go tell him you are looking for him?"

Just a thought!)
@ Gerrack/Enkida, (OOC: couple of corrections here. Sister Garaele is not missing, according to the rumors the party heard, she has been seen leaving the city for a few days and then returns. It is deemed suspicious since the dangers outside the city that are present [goblins, bandits, orcs]. Second and technically the party doesn't know this part so i guess i shouldn't say but i will since this is out of character, she was scene north of the city, the party is currently south of the city.)
@ everyone, (OOC: it sounds like most if not all the party is ready to start their journey for the day, so i will need a march order and a marching pace. if anyone has questions about those feel free to ask. so far i have it at Gimble in the front, with Gerrack walking (flying?) next to him (unless Gerrack is actually scouting in which he would be ahead of the party), Edmond is behind Gimble. Edmond voted for a normal pace so if no other people give a suggestion or vote it will be a normal pace. feel free to keep rp-ing breakfast, keep in mind that Gniff left shortly after eating so he is still out there. let me know what you guys are doing and if everyone is ready to advance the story.)

Gniff tweets at the bird happily, "Oh yes please. I need to find my friends but tell him to go to the road and head toward the big city, he knows the one. He should catch us pretty quick and I will meet him along the way."
Happy that he will get to see his friend again he practically skips back to the party. He takes up position near Edmond when he arrives and whistles a tune unless he hears Finnian start a song.
Watching the sun rise that morning puts Finnian in a sunny mood, so when the party breaks camp after breakfast and takes to the road he's all too happy to oblige Misty's request. "A morn' so fair as this shouldn't be rushed, certainly not while we're makin' good time as it is, eh? When we get movin' I've got something to put a little spring in our step, hailin' straight from the docks of Ashington!" With a swig from his waterskin and a deep breath, he launches into the shanty.
