Henreid: 15

Lycosa: 3

Valar and Henreid notice a distant fire light flickering in the trees ahead. 

Striker and Milo communicate with their master's in images:

Lycosa has found some delicious snack and is too distracted to keep a look out.

"Careful..."  Saralyssa says in a soft voice.  "There are people up there with weapons..."

Malbor nods even though he had been distracted with cleaning some of the food from their meal out of his teeth. He gets into a stance and raises his Warhammer and shield into a fighting stance.

"Perhaps it's the search party?" Valar whispers. 

"It could be" Talos whispers to Valor "Or it could be bandits I'll send Milo out and, Eh just watch over me for a moment Valor, cause I wont be able to see or hear"

He goes into Milos senses and scouts ahead trying to stay unseen.

Milo perception check!

 "Let's stop and let Talos do so his owl eyes thing," valar says.

Talos always loved to go into Milos senses He liked the sensation of flying after reaching a hundred feet away from his Master Milo alites on a branch watching the

Perception 10

Talos sees nothing more than Milo described with the flashes in his head. His empathic link does not reach far enough to see the group 200 yards ahead.

"Damnt" Talos quietly says as he comes back to his senses

"I should of known better, Milo did say 200ft. We need to get closer say 100ft before I can use Milo to spy."

Henreid mutters to himself about how easily Lycosa is distracted when she catches opportunistic prey.

Using his aptitude as a forest hunter, Henreid sneaks further off the trail and quietly closes the distance between himself and the unknown camp. Crawling silently, he sneaks to within 50 feet of the camp, trying to spot clues, hear phrases, count & identify persons. He limits himself to a mental count of 60 seconds.

<Perception Check> 5

Roll stealth too please Henreid. 

<Stealth Check> 17

Malbor waita for more information as he seems both ready to greet the group ahead of them or to run ahead and tear them apart if they are hostile.

Saralyssa has Striker fly over the camp to get another look, specificley asking the owl to look for children this time.

Striker perception:  10

Henreid is silent but can not see again over the large tree roots he's hidden himself behind but the flickering of fire light on the upper branches hanging over the camp. He can oddly hear only the fire...no voices.

Striker gets easily distracted by a noise in the trees near the campsite. He reports this back to Saralyssa, it's an odd gnawing sound but he reports nothing else distracted by the sound.

"Some weird gnawing sound in the trees around the camp."  Saralyssa informs the group.  "Do we move forward?" She keeps her voice as low as possible, not wishing to give away their position if they have not been noticed as of yet.

"I wouldn't normally ask this" Talos says to Saralyssa

"Cause I respect you smaller folk. But if you want to go into your familiars senses do you want me to carry you closer?"

Frustrated by his bad luck, Henreid decides not to risk another attempt. He sneaks back to the party hoping they've had better luck. "Have you ever known a party not to banter around a campfire? I didn't get much, but they're certainly not talking."
