(Is everyone going back with rock?)

Maythus goes with Rock

If everyone is going I will go along but if most of us are staying I will stay too and press on.

"I say let him and the dwarf go while we stay here guarding the tunnel entrance"

(Just need to know what pops is doing)

Pops will stay at the grate. 

Deekin peers into the surrounding shadows with his darkvision, searching for anything out of place. Perception: 5

Maythus and Rockcrusher drag their captive back through the tunnel to the keep and deliver him to one of the guards, sending another to inform the Governor of the capture, then head back down the tunnel to meet back with the others to go to the temple.  The others wait in the tunnel for the pair to return and...3 nothing eventful happens.  Once Maythus and Rock return, the group heads up the stream towards the temple.  

Once you reach the part of the river closest to the temple, you move your way up the hill into the trees between the water and the building, creeping forward until the low wall around the temple comes into view.  You can hear booming from the battering ram trying to knock down the front doors.

(Up to you guys how to approach it from here.  The tunnel brought you out at the stream directly southeast of the keep.  You're at the blue spot in the trees, unless you'd rather approach from a different direction entirely, which is always an option, and the above can be edited.)

How tall is the wall, can we see over it?  Could we lift  someone up to look over? We might be able to go over the wall, or we can scout how many are in front of the church, I don’t known if DJ can do that or if Dawn can sneak around and look?

"I can do it but DJ might have a better view point if he of Pop's are not to tired, as he would be able to see both outside and inside the walls"

(It's a mostly decorative wall.  Maybe about 3 feet high, so you can see over it if you move closer.  I just had you stop as soon as you got to where you could ese it so you could decide how to procede for actually scouting and handling the situation)

How many enemies can we see? Is it possible for us to set up a sneak attack?

I follow the woods to the place where the city will is closest to the temple wall and using stealth 27 look over the temple wall to see the lay of the land 15

(I rolled a 4 on the perception, like I said DJ probably would see more)

(There is no city wall.)

Dawn sneaks closer to the edge of the trees so he can see what forces are waiting for you. You see a group of raiders clustered around the back door. Two humans are trying to get the door open, while six kobolds are arrayed around them keeping watch.  As you watch, you see more come around the corner from the front. This group consists of 2 drakes, 3 humans, and 10 kobolds spread across about a 50 foot line, patrolling their way around the building. 

Rockcrusher is brave but this is a lot of enemies to take at once, he thinks we should head to the river/trees as the rear of the building and wait for a patrol to come by and try to lure them into the trees to fight so we can split the groups maybe.  

(You’re in the trees at the rear of the building reqdy. You see the patrol and a group at the back door. You don’t know how many are at the front door, though you can hear the battering ram pounding away)

(This might be a good place to have a grid map so we can see where every enemy [we know about] is and we can make an attack plan)

(Or my and Deekin can start shooting from the woods while Rockcrusher and Maythus wait concealed between us amd the enemies at the back door and hope to surprise these who come to clear us out)

(Also I missed a bit on he description for the group at the back door. They’re actually building a fire back there trying to light the temple on fire.)

Their meager fire produces little flame, instead creating prodigious clouds of thick smoke that engulf the back of the temple and blanket the surrounding 30 feet of ground. Everything in the smoke is lightly obscured, and objects or creatures that are seen through more than 15 feet of smoke are heavily obscured.

Pops says, "Ok Lads, Get crazy and I will do my best to clean it up. If you big kids can get in there and cause a ruckus in the smoke then I can support the ranged attacks from the forest. Dolomite will also help out." Pop's eyes go white as sees through his owl buddy. DJ flies strait up 60 feet in order to Search Perception 22
