Misprize Thou Not These Shadows That Belong: Lost Mines of Phandelver

Rabbit stops for a very brief moment as Mau falls along with the bridge.  Her face is impassive though as she sees his grave injuries.  Before anyone can hardly tell she has paused, she is again on the move for the exit. 

Having been sent by Sildar. Margret tries to quietly enter the cave from the forest 7 and tries to observe what's going on with the ability to see 120ft into the dark 15 perception with help from her owl that perches on her shoulder.

Blond hair grey eyed human dressed in scale mail and shield with a grey owl as a pet. Looking for the people described by her friend who said they may need help. At the moment she has her bow out ready to loose an arrow.

Edryd leads there way out the tunnel, grim and quiet he presses for the entrance. At the sounds of Mau falling he doesn't turn back or slow. Forward is his only thought. Forward to the moon and out of the cursed darkness of this cave. His keen night eyes seem the human as soon as the form comes into his vision  (went off my earlier perception roll). He holds up a hand and whispers, "We have company." He says simply. "She does not appear to be a bandit..." Edryd approaches carefully gripping his mace and shield. "If you are looking for death you found the right place..." He whispers as they approach. He keeps walking past the figure in his quest to leave the cave as soon as he can.

The man speaking is a dirty, filthy mess. His hair is maybe blonde but it is a dirty blonde in the literal sense. His hair is matched with an equally dirty and unkempt beard. His teeth crooked and rotted. He wears chainmail that is equally dirty and battered. In his right hand he holds a mace and shield in the left. The shield is "painted" in various dirts and berries with what appears to be a pair of eyes surrounded by seven stars. HIs eyes dart side to side and he is obviously very twitchy.

Margret looks at the man with concern

"I've met death, quite an ally. So you're one of the people Sildar described, your hard to miss. What's the situation? Why haven't you doused the lights? I've been told most of the bandits were human." 

Hearing Edryd indicate the presence of an unknown person, and seeing her, Rabbit tries to step to the side and hide. (Stealth: 7) If possible, she tries to step around the corner from where the woman can be seen but close to the wall. Taking up the position, she waits to see what happens. 

Rabbit is a young woman of rather average height and slight build.  She is dressed all in black - blouse, pants, and boots with a long black hooded cloak over it all.  Each garment is perfectly fitted to her figure and seem to be of very fine material.  Beneath her hood, her skin is very light, and her black hair, scraggly and unkempt, is roughly cut to just less than shoulder length.

Perception 10

(lol)

"You can come out my dear. I see well in the dark"

Having evidently been seen, Rabbit starts to cast Chill Touch holding back the effect to use in the event this unknown woman takes any hostile action.  (READY action basically.) "Outta our way or we move you," she calls out.

She gestures towards Phandelin  'I'm not standing in your way I'll protect the rear, if I can get someone with the courage to help me."

She's saddened that no ones taken advantage of this wonderous choke point.

"How are you not in the way when you're standing right at the exit we're trying to use?"  Rabbit says, sounding a touch annoyed. "But you said something about Sildar?" She glances back where the noises of pursuit were starting.  Having been spotted, she moves forward, as clearly hiding is pointless at this point. 

You see a towering goliath quite bloodied rushing towards you holding his greataxe ..he is bald with long sideburns,has tattoo sleeve on both of his arms and on his head.his upper torso is naked filled with scars wearing leather pants and boots.. from his belt you can see one handaxe and on his back has a small backpqck qnd some javelins..he says "hey you!you said Sildar sent you?then run with us and we ll talk about it later"

Out from behind the hulking goliath steps a young handsome man dressed in clothes that are likely haute couture, latest fashion of the Sword coast. He has dark well-trimmed hair and icy blue eyes, wearing a mostly purple coat over a ruffled white shirt. He is wearing a golden signet ring on his left hand and is wearing a strange medallion of some sort in a golden chain. "I believe you are a bit late to the party my dear, but we appreciate the thought. We are leaving, taking this family to safety..." He says, motioning to a mother with two small childen just behind him. "...and we are in no condition to face the evil wizard and his henchmen just yet. We do not lack courage, if we did we would not be here in the first place, but staying and fighting now would not be brave, just stupid." He says as-a-matter-of-factly to the armored woman entering the Redbrand hideout. "Rest assured that I at least will not leave Phandalin until the menace of the Redbrands have been dealt with, but right now we have a young boy to rescue."

Margret shrugs as she stands aside "Very well" Then follows behind leaving Marco behind in a tree keeping an eye on the cave for pursuit till the desperate group gets more than a hundred foot away then he flies up and circles then disappears. 

(Assuming we get out safely now the plan would be to get the family to safety at the Inn, then rescuing Butt from the Redbrands.)

(I believe it would be better to send someone to get Butt and the rest to save the family..)

You all stumble towards the exit, giving Margret a sidelong glance before making it to the exit. You all hear a blood curdling scream and the sound of crunching bones and laughter. Turning around, you spy Glasstaff glaring at you. His face seems to change and contort and you’re unsure of which is his real face - the one you saw earlier or any of these blurry versions. 

Yiu all make it out safely to about 100 feet or so before you see the body. The Redbrand who left seems to have met a grisly end, his body lifeless on top of a bloody red pool. 

Marco doesn’t sense or see any pursuit, though it’s a good bet coming this way again might not be as easy as before...

Krull as soon as they stop he punches the nearest tree he can find..(Attack: 18 Damage: 2)" F..ck we failed! WE F..CKING FAILED!" his anger dissipates as he sees the family behind him "OK we are safe..now lady...you said master Sildar sent you ?as you can see we aren't in our best condition.."

Wolfe glares back at the glasstaff for a moment. "We'll meet again, real soon." He mutters, then resuming the retreat to the inn.
As they come upon the body of the Redbrand Wolfe nods and turns to the armored woman. "Your work? I'm Wolfe Oberon, and I owe you my thanks if that is the case. He was sent to take care of a young halfling boy that helped us find this secret entrance. Come to think of it, how did you find the secret entrance?" Wolfe asks the armored woman.
