Vex walks to the tavern with most of the rest. He smiles, but knowing his fame here would last longer than him. Closer and closer came the time he never wanted to happen, yet must happen. He greets Kristoph, and waits for Kocino to prepare the meal. A last meal before that dreaded event happens. They are coming for me, I’ll be gone by morn.
Drez, painfully aware that Gwen is watching, waits for Jess to drive the boar towards him. He can't afford to miss a shot like this, not in front of both Gwen and Jess.
He knows his crossbow would have no trouble hitting a mark at a 60ft range. However, he also knows that a shorter distance means more power, which means a more likely kill...so long as the bolt doesn't go straight through the animal... Still, he waits for the boar to be running almost directly towards him before taking aim, and waits until it is about 50-45ft away before firing, giving himself enough time to reload if necessary. He also waits for Jess to be at an angle behind the boar, so that he has less of a chance of accidentally hitting her should the shot go awry.
Hopefully he can manage to take it down in one or two shots, an angry and wounded wild boar is not an animal to be trifled with...well, at least if he has to grapple it, his rite is still in effect on his hands...
As they walk toward the Inn. Gilded will say to Vex. "Hey, you ok there my fellow dragon? You haven't been yourself since that fight with Simon. Every OK with you?"
“A near death experience can change a person, Gilded. I just have to get used to the life of nearly dying at every corner.” Vex well and truly knows that by morning, his contractors will have taken him back to Radiant City against his will for another mission. At least he knows a new person will replace him, that’s how it always is. Little did he know, that new person would be the strangest one seen.
Gilded responds to Vex. "Yeah, today was my first time falling in a fight, I sure didn't like it. You just gotta have faith in your friends to be there for ya." He smile then. "Just stay close to me for a while, we'll work it out "
"You know what, I think I like you too. I could go for some ale." Amon jumps up into the air, his insectile wings buzzing to keep him aloft at Gilded's shoulder height (assuming his wings weren't bound as well). "Why, I'm flattered. I've most definitely gotten out of worse. But I don't want to go back to my men, they'll rat me out for not getting anything for sure. I might as well stay with you." As he is lead to the inn, he does a small flip in the air. "Thank you! I think it's very pretty. I was sent to steal it from someplace or other once and found Corvus just looking at it, dumbstruck, when I got to it. That's where I know him from. My boss didn't tell me much about it, but I thought it was the cutest thing so I decided to keep it for myself. Goes well with my normal ensemble, too." He smiles cheekily at the dragonborn, and stops talking. When Gilded starts talking to Vex, he slows his pace a little to give them room for conversation.

Robin looks at Gilded blinking a bit surprised before smiling softly.
"Ya bet, I gotta have a drinking contest with you mate!"
Kristoph greets Vex wrapping his arm around the young dragonborn.
"Aye you son of a devil! I can't thank ye enough lad! Hey.. Kocino! You've been a hell of a chef! Need some help back in the kitchen?"
The boar stuck with the crossbolt in the fields yelps in pain spinning around for a moment! It looked to take off! Perhaps Jess could sneak a finishing blow (If stealth high enough attack with advantage) to finish the boar off!
Back at the tavern Robin see's Vex stuck in contemplative thought. He seemed sat by Vex's other side with a small small.
"Gilded's right, in this life our lives are always on the edge. Or should I say the life you all lead now. The life of an adventurer."
Robin looks over at Amon following Gilded around. Robin wouldn't lie he was a bit jealous Gilded had accepted this new thief so easily. It certainly took time for Robin but he wouldn't dwell on that for long. He did however still seem a bit on edge around Amon.
OOC Can Jess roll for stealth for me? Since wolves are built for hunting animals and such I'll say she has advantage ^^
Though Jess's form was awe inspiring to behold the Boar had seen her coming in full charge. Making a lunge forward the boar had drifted to the side avoiding her bite fleeing the scene. It began to run toward down the road toward the town? Or perhaps somewhere else? Though it was escaping with Drezmir's bolt in the boar they were now able to follow the blood trail. (Jess needs no role as Wolve's have like passive perception 15. And advantage on smelling/hearing.) She was able to sniff and track the boar's blood. She could sprint ahead and abandon Drez/Gwen or wait for those two to catch up with her. (Wolves have dash speed of 80feet in six seconds.)
The boar begins to head on the outskirts of town almost running into the lost forest! However Jess swift in her wolf form is able to pounce and try one more attack on the wounded boar before it heads into the forest! The boar seemed even worse hurt than before (With two bolts in him the second from Drezmir again.)
OOC That to hit 1 I thought was an opportunity attack? It's all right though she'll get another chance.
Bleeding from both bolts the boar looks behind to see Jess gaining pace. Had she missed the boar may have escaped entirely but.. Well that wasn't something they needed to worry about now. Pouncing the boar she manages to land the killing blow before going to deep into the lost forest. Though moaning could be heard from further within.
OOC The stealth gave her away before but it's okay now ^^
Seeing the boar go down, Drez raises a fist, "Yes! Good hunting Jess! I'm sure Kocino will love this."
Grinning, he gives Gwen a triumphant look before jogging over to meet Jess. If she needs help carrying the boar he will help pick it up. "Lets get out of here before we attract some unwanted attention shall we?" He nods towards the forrest.
Wolf Jess will drag the boar out of the forest to a reasonable spot, then change back into her normal form and field dress the boar. Then the 3 of them can bring back the meat easily enough. She will congratulate Drez on a good hunt and good aim.

Sprint ahead.
Opportunity attack?
(How far away is the boar? The crossbow has a range of 320ft.)
If the boar is still in range, Drez will reload his crossbow and take another shot at it.
Attack: 18 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

Nah that was her normal attack
20 to hit
5 damage
Oh I see, perhaps she wasn’t supposed to attack at all unless she got good stealth, I misunderstood that
Ok yeah my bad, rule it however you like.
