(Using a diameter of 2 ft, each acorn would be roughly 4 cubic feet in volume, and the bag can hold 64 cubic feet, so up to 16 acorns should fit, depending on what else is in there).

Getting everything together and moving close to the bunch of acorns, Malachi tries for the closest of the smaller acorns that looks unblemished

DEX(Acrobatics): 5

The rogue successfully retrieves the first nut.

Malichi fits the acorn in the bag of holding. He looks into the opening, his eyes and mouth go wide

"I could have ssoooo much fun with this!" he says, his voice filled with wonder. Going the next two acorns

Nut #2 DEX(Acrobatics): 11

Nut #3 DEX(Acrobatics): 10

"Maybe next time stick tine at a time?" He says to himself

 (OOC Any penalties for the misses? Fall? Anything dropped?)

"Malichi, careful there!  Do you require any assistance?"  Zensiro watches nervously as Malichi teeters out on the branch, attempting to wrangle the acorns.  He's concerned that his friend's confidence in the grace of Tymora may have emboldened him too much this time!

Malichi reaches for the remaining acorn, but slips and loses his footing, plunging over the edge of the branch. Fortunately, his rope and grappling hook are securely fastened, and the fall is brief. The others haul him up, and he tries again with the same result.

Dyumi catches a glimpse of movement above them. As he watches more closely, strange shapes seem to be leaping and gliding from branch to branch further up the trunk.

"I'm good" Malichi says, climbing up the rope "I guess I'm a little over excited" 

"Be careful lads, it seems we have some visitors!"

Hoping they are just sugar gliders or flying squirrels, Dyumi will rack his brains to see if he can identify these creatures based on the movement patterns of creatures he knows. Survival: 17

After a few attempts, Malichi is able to retrieve the second acorn, for a total of two in his possession.  This level of the tree now appears to be picked clean, it would be necessary to ascend further up the trunk to find more acorns.  Assuming you choose to do so, about 60 feet above the first branch you come to a ring of three equally spaced branches sprouting from the main trunk of the tree spreading in opposite directions.

Zensiro heards Dyumi's warning and turns his gaze upward to see if he can help in identifying whatever it is that is flitting about up there.  "Dyumi, nice work spotting those!  What do you think they might be?  Hopefully we can gain some knowledge of what we're dealing with before heading up there."

The shapes look something like this:

Cerlinde knowledge nature22 

Cerlinde recognizes the silhouettes as those of some species of flying squirrel, although these specimens are the size of small dragons compared to you.

"They may be after our nuts!" Malichi shouts, then, more to himself "Well, somebody had to say it"

After reaching the branch and climbing on top of it, Malichi secures all his gear and starts heading back to Aggie, speeding up as his footing become more secure.

DEX(Acrobatics): 24

 Nearly at a dead run as he reaches our transportation, making it look easy

"Ha! Called it! Flying squirrels! I should be able to strike up a deal with them if they do in fact *chuckle* want your nuts."

Dyumi finds Malachi's situation quite comical :)

(Meanwhile the squirrels are thinking, Hey, those weird-looking bugs are after our nuts!)

(I'm not sure I like the sound of that!)

So... you are at the second level of the tree (See diagram above).  From your vantage point on the trunk you cannot tell what lies obscured behind leaf and twig at the ends of the branches.  So, pick a branch and start exploring, or move further up the trunk.  Or back down, I suppose.  The squirrel-shapes that you have seen to this point are mostly still above your level.

For orientation, Branch A points west, towards the fountain, Branch B south, towards the vegetable garden, and Branch C runs eastward, towards the other trees.

"Ah well, I'm up for anything.  Hopefully we can find a quantity of acorns on this level such that we can avoid travelling higher.  Perhaps I'll disembark and scout along this branch to the west."  With that, Zensiro leaves the confines of the AGGE and carefully makes his way out along the branch.  He'll keep an eye out for both acorns for Malichi and the crystal chrysalis for Cerlinde and himself.

(Maybe Investigation for the acorns and Passive Perception for the chrysalis?  Acrobatics for the branch?  What the heck, I'll just roll 'em all.  Feel free to pick which are applicable or ask for something different.)

Investigation 26
Passive WIS (Perception) 20

Cerlinde will also accompany Zensiro on the branch scouting mission, if it looks big enough she can walk without too much difficulty.  (Giving help to perception/investigation) checks.
