Ace hops off the horse, grabbing the arrows in a respectful manner.

"I do believe that this training session is over."

Ace bows to Tor, saying "Thank you for the match."

He stays in this position, waiting for Tor's response.

Tor looks a little uncomfortable being bowed to, and with the general level of formality Ace displays. He nods a little before saying "Sure thing. You too. Let's get back to the fire. I've got some new holes that need tending." He claps Ace on the arm approvingly, then walks back to the others around the fire.

Ace walks back to the fires, sits down, and stares into the fires, lost in thought.

(OOC: For the purposes of sparring, I don't care that much, but in actual combat, there's a few things that are important to clarify rules/mechanics-wise before they come up. Firstly, unless you have the Dual Wielder feat, you can only draw one weapon for free. Drawing or stowing a second weapon requires an action. Secondly, crossbows have the loading property, which says "Loading. Because of the time required to load this weapon, you can fire only one piece of ammunition from it when you use an action, bonus action, or reaction to fire it, regardless of the number of attacks you can normally make.")

If everyone is content to rest, please give me perception checks for each watch, if you're setting a watch.

(I’m down with doing the rest, so long as we get an opportunity to resolve Tyrel’s message reply from Neverember with the assumption that it happens the same night.) 

Oloven’s watch perception: 25

We will need to wait for Tyrel to decide what he's doing with them information he's received then.

Perception: 8

Perception: 17

[Sigi rolled his perception back in #213]

Tyrel walked over to the group that was now calmly sitting once again. "I've recieved word back asking what a high road genie is. I could send another message to clarify. What kind of genie was it?" He asked looking about the group. "I hadn't quite caught up to see it and believed it to be resolved rather quickly by Sigfried" 

He seated himself near the campfire and pulled out his water skin to take a sip from it. Placing it back into his bag of holding once again afterwards. 

"Efreeti," Tor spits, just the one word as he cleans and wraps the slash to his arm from the sparring.

Oloven smacks himself gently on the forehead, saying "Oh, foolish. I must be gettin' old not to think that the bird probably hasn't even arrived yet. Tell him...

Efreeti encountered today. Emerged from bottle. Attacked caravan carrying bottle. Sole survivor says bottle was gift for Neverember from an aforementioned suspect. Detailed letter forthcoming"

Tyrel Nodded, he had not been travelling for a while therefore he had not enountered much need for learning what kind of creatures roamed the other planes. Using another spell slot to cast sending he would speak softly to himself.

"Yes the blacksmith, Efreeti was encountered. The survivor says bottle was a gift for Neverember. Detailed letter comes soon. Hope this find you well.

Having modified the message slightly as to answer the questions a bit better in his opinion. This fact was probably not correct and left more questions open but he is learning. 

The response is immediate. It is not rude, but is brusque, as though he is otherwise occupied:

 The rest of the night passes uneventfully. As the sun rises, it burns off the last of the clouds and the thin fog coating the ground. The weather appears to be warming. If there's no obstacles to your travel today, you should arrive at the Wayside Inn at the end of the day, where the Triboar Trail heads east off the High Road towards Phandalin.

OOC: To Wizardously

With the Dawn, Siegfried will use one of his spell slots to cast sending.  He will make the church aware of what occurred, reaching out to one of the other clerics at the temple of Chauntea in Neverwinter.

It's Siegfried.  Encountered Efreeti attacking caravan.  It escaped from bottle that may have been intended to harm Lord Neverember.  Sent message to alert Neverember also.

He will continue with a second use of the spell.

We dispatched efreeti and continue to Leilon.  Stopping in Phandalin to deliver surviving witness, Nikita.  May be wise to send a brother to protect witness.

Unless any response alarms him or causes him to take other action, Sigi will then resume his normal morning routine, walking the nearby fields to look for an agrarian breakfast (survival 7) and then getting Barley attached to the cart and ready to ride.

Oloven wakes early, chipper as ever. He continues his routine of morning stretches while engaging in a one sided conversation with Daisy, then riding with her for a bit, getting her used to his voice and commands, then carrots and oats for both of them. With that done, he hops out of the saddle and offers the reins once again to Nikita.

"She's in a good mood today!" he tells her. "Must be this weather got her wantin' to move! How're you doin' this morning, ma'am?" 

To Siegfried, you receive the following from Abbot Lukas
