"I agree Kwami. Boil why don't you be our look out. The sight of a dragon born might be more aggressive than we'd like, but a priest and a simple traveler shouldn't raise too much alarm. The rest of you should fan out a bit in case we run into trouble."
If everyone is in agreement Quin will take Kwami back to the camp. This time they make no effort at silence and instead purposely approach with a little extra noise to help cover the movements of the rest. Once the pair get to about 20 yrds from the camp the rogue will call out.
"Hullooo in the camp! We mean no harm! May we approach!"

Everyone post your thoughts. Quin won't leave until everyone has had their say.
With Quin and Kwami approaching the camp, and the rest in various support places, Quin yells out to the camp, "Hullooo in the camp! We mean no harm! May we approach!"
The bustle and joy of the camp continues to the most part, but a few men squeeze between a couple wagons and head their way. The men all smile at their presence, and the one in the front opens his arms to greet them.
The brown haired man is olive skinned, and tall and broad shouldered, wearing red boots and baggy red pants. His shirt is a loose fitting blue. He has a bejeweled dagger hanging from his belt. He wears several rings of gold.
"Good morning friends! Peace be with you. A brother of the cloth and an elf - not often seen in these parts. Where is the rest of your party? It’s a rare thing for the mist to bring just two. You are all welcome to join us for our morning meal."
DMN:
@Razaniel, just confirming you are back at max HP.
"It's true there are more of us. We didn't want to scare anyone by approaching as a large armed contingent nor do we wish to intrude but you are also correct in how we arrived. Thank you for your hospitality. We will join you and perhaps you can answer some of our questions."
Quin turns and waves his arm in the air as a signal to the rest that it's safe to approach. Turning back to the brightly dressed gentleman he says,
"You may call me Quin and this is my traveling companion, Kwami."
Boil at first disappointed for not being the first to meet the new people, quickly forgets as the excitement builds. He makes a quick sketch of the wagons and some notes on the men’s appearance. When Quin signals for the rest of us to come forward, Boil is quick to respond, with smile on his face.

Boil routinely forgets how his appearance can affect others. In his own mind he is quite dashing and friendly looking figure. He tries to not see his real face if he can help it.
IC: Abel steps forward out of the treeline and joins the growing, loose column of adventurers as they make their way toward the welcome of the local men.
"Peace to you as well,"answers Kwami. "I did not catch your name. So the mist brings people here often? Where exactly are we? Who or what is the source of the magic in the mist?"

Adjusting the lute strung across his back, Bruno offers his hand to the man. “The name is Bruno, nice to meet you. Nice uh, wagon camp(?) you have here.”

IC: Abel observes the men who have approached the first of his party to arrive at their camp's outskirts, watching carefully for signs of anything other than genuine welcome and curiosity. INSIGHT: 17
He leans in to the nearest of his companions and whispers, "They say they knew we were more than two travellers because the mist mostly brings larger groups, but I wonder if they knew our numbers because of some link to the ravens we tangled with earlier..."
OOC: I am not certain of which party member would be the nearest as I approach the new men from our hiding spots.
The men are willing to shake hands and greet any that offer.
"It is very nice to meet you. My name is Bohemia, and this is Bartley and Danior." The man motions to the others who both nod in greeting. "I'm sure you all have many questions. The mist is a strange thing for sure. Let's go inside the wagon circle, and share a meal and you can rest comfortably for a bit."
The three men begin to walk back towards the wagons, assuming the group will follow.
Bohemia talks as you walk, "We are a Vistani clan of metalsmiths. Mostly copper and silver, but people love their trinkets, no? It provides for us, and allows us to live our ways."
As you enter the loose circle of wagons, there is quite a bit going on. Tables sit snug against the side of the wagons, and craftsmen are preparing their tools for a day's work. Several of the women and children are preparing food around the large bonfire in the circle's center, or folding blankets and pillows from the night's rest. All of them are dressed brightly, and seem genuinely happy.
One of the wagons, larger than the rest, has several stump stools in a semi-circle in front of it - clearly a meeting place of sorts. It is here that Bohemia leads you. Bartley and Danior offer blessings and leave to resume their normal activities.
"Here friends," Bohemia motions to the stools. "Take a seat, and ask your questions."
As you begin to sit, some of the children begin to bring bread and cheese to whoever is interested.

By RAW, cantrip selections are permanent. No swapping. You can add guidance when you add a new cantrip.

"I agree. Those of us that stay behind still ought to be close enough to muster assistance. Just in case.'
The cleric agrees to accompany Quin, holding his empty hands out to his sides as a gesture of peaceful intent.
