Maverick turns to the other 2 and puts his arms out.
" Stop, somethings not right."
Maverick makes "eye contact" with a bird and asks it to do a fly over of the village and report back to him what it sees.
He goes back to Eskee and Stun. " We wait." and then sits against a tree and stares at the village, using the wilderness as cover from eyesight from the village
Stun as Maverick sends his bird says to the group, "This feeling in the air, feels familiar. If theres no movement in the streets, our best bet is to look in the square after his bird returns."
Without breaking eye contact with the village Maverick says in a monotone voice " who is faster? Who can explore more of the village and return in under an hour?"
The bird returns and chirps that it sees nothing but shadows in the streets, no people or animals, not even in the square. It is spooky and frightens the bird, who quickly flits away before you can ask any more of it.
Maverick stands up still not breaking eye contact with the village, " Listen, the both of you. This is dark, shadows are walking those streets. Are you still in?"
"We will need a game plan, you only have 1hr to make it there and back, explore as much as you can." Maverick hands him paper and something to write with " draw a rough sketch, take notes. Like I said you have 1hr after that this spell will ware off and you will be alone. Let me know when you are ready and I will make you invisable."
"Ok then, what do you suggest? We got shadows walking the streets, and its dead silent. How are we going to get from here to there? How are we going to fight shadows? How are we going to get to the eye being unseen? The only other way I see is we break into one of the houses and go house to house, building to building, step by step until we get to the eye. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. How does that sound?"
“Maverick get a hold of yourself! What are these shadows walking the street you’re talking about? Where is thisss ‘there’ that you’re trying to get to? As far as I can tell we have no idea where The Eye is and I don’t know anything about these shadowsss you claim are walking.If you have more information please share with the rest of usss. Otherwise, I agree with you that we take it slow and we can we can try to move quietly if you want. However, I think it would be wise to go in and see what we have before we jump to conclusions,” Eskee says to Maverick then looks to Stun.
As you walk towards the village, you hear a familiar voice say, "I wouldn't go in there if I were you." You turn to see Sir Gladmore come from behind a tree looking ragged and haggard.
"I barely got out alive," Sir Gladmore explains. "Shortly after we returned things got chaotic." He sits down on the grass. "The people were eerily silent when we approached, except for one old man who threw a rotten potato at the Eye as we took him to the Mayor's Mansion. We introduced the Eye to the new mayor, and he immediately had the guards seize him and take him prisoner. I protested but was threatened with imprisonment myself. When darkness fell, the town was invaded by an army of shadar-kai, elves from the Shadowfell. All my men were killed or taken captive, but I was able to fight my way out. Since then, I have been watching as the people have slowly disappeared into the Mayor's Mansion. I'm not sure what is happening in there, but I don't like it, not one bit."
"Gladmore, Im glad to see you are still breathing. Many thanks for standing up for Eye. How many of them are there and what other information do you have on them?"
Stun then turns Eskee and Maverick, "This sounds like some magic nonsense is happening that I am oblivious to. If we are gonna get through this, we must get the Eye out of the prison to help us"
"how did you fight back? Were yoy able to hurt any of the shadar-kai and if so how." Maverick looks around at everyone. are any of you able to comunicate telepathicley? Also how well donyou know the layout of the Mayors mansion Sir Gladmore?"
"I fought back with this," he says as he unsheathes his sword, "when I had to, but mostly I kept out of sight and got out of town as soon as I could. Apparently, whatever is affecting the town has limits. The shadar-kai army will not go very far from the mansion."
“I agree Stun, we need to free The Eye.” Eskee replies to Stun. “Not me,” Eskee answers Maverick. Eskee then waits to hear Sir Gladmore’s answers to Stun and Maverick’s questions.
Maverick turns to the other 2 and puts his arms out.
" Stop, somethings not right."
Maverick makes "eye contact" with a bird and asks it to do a fly over of the village and report back to him what it sees.

While Maverick talks to the bird Eskee asks Stun, “how do you mean? This feels familiar? What do you think is going on here?”
Maverick stands up still not breaking eye contact with the village, " Listen, the both of you. This is dark, shadows are walking those streets. Are you still in?"
Stun says to Maverick, "Most likely me in terms of speed. investigating though, I only know so much so i could only give you my best guess."
Stun then turns to Eskee and says, "Only familiar to me in a sense that something has gone horribly wrong to a village."
Then, he looks to Maverick once more and says "Shadows? I don't know what you mean but lets go, it sounds like trouble."
"We will need a game plan, you only have 1hr to make it there and back, explore as much as you can." Maverick hands him paper and something to write with " draw a rough sketch, take notes. Like I said you have 1hr after that this spell will ware off and you will be alone. Let me know when you are ready and I will make you invisable."
“I don’t think we should split up. I agree something is amissss. Invisibility is helpful, but not fool proof.” Eskee says to Stun and Maverick.
"Ok then, what do you suggest? We got shadows walking the streets, and its dead silent. How are we going to get from here to there? How are we going to fight shadows? How are we going to get to the eye being unseen? The only other way I see is we break into one of the houses and go house to house, building to building, step by step until we get to the eye.

However, I think it would be wise to go in and see what we have before we jump to conclusions,” Eskee says to Maverick then looks to Stun.
" I thought he was locked up like in a prison, or dungon? well let's go explore together."
Maverick begins tobfollow the woodline/shadows towards the closest building.
As you walk towards the village, you hear a familiar voice say, "I wouldn't go in there if I were you." You turn to see Sir Gladmore come from behind a tree looking ragged and haggard.
Maverck stops " what happened? Are you ok? Whats roaing those streets and where is the eye?"
"I barely got out alive," Sir Gladmore explains. "Shortly after we returned things got chaotic." He sits down on the grass. "The people were eerily silent when we approached, except for one old man who threw a rotten potato at the Eye as we took him to the Mayor's Mansion.

OOC: Happy New Year yall!

"Sir Gladmore honestly with what you have seen what is the likely hood we ALL make it back to the Orcs Village alive?"
