"...at worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
Tacidea can take the second watch, but he doesn’t see well in the dark.

Okay, Taxidea. You hear the same dripping water and the scuffling sounds of creatures moving in the dark. Otherwise, your watch goes by quietly, and you awaken Prim for her turn.
(I just checked and Prim has no torches. I assume we'd have thought to bring torches back when she said to replenish supplies before we leave, but I thought she had some. I mean, the party members without darkvision would have noticed the lack of light pretty quickly after we left the deep gnomes. Can we retcon to say we have torches or a lantern?)
Taxidea uses the Light cantrip cast on a crystal set in a bracelet he wears for light.

Okay. Prim, as the rest of the party sleeps, you here a strange sound, at least one supposedly foreign to the Frelian Underdark. It is the sound of a carriage creaking its way down a rocky dirt road.
As you follow the sound, you enter a large cavern filled with bioluminescent fungi. In the distance, you see a large covered wagon being pulled along a trail lined with glowing mushrooms by a team of pale, furry humanoids. Two dark elves sit in the carriage seat using whips and reins to direct the humanoids.
As you try to creep up on it, the carriage stops. One of the dark elves says something over his shoulder to someone inside the carriage. Slowly, from the back of the covered wagon, a woman comes out. She has jet black skin, radiant white hair, and stunning purple eyes. She wears a white lace dress which barely covers her shapely figure. "Don't be afraid," she calls out to you. "I don't bite." She smiles and holds out her hand as one would when approaching a frightened animal.
Despite Deragor attempting to hold him back, Bolin cautiously approaches the woman and kisses her outstretched hand. "I am Bolin Brickbreaker, som of Bron, milady," he says, looking deeply into the woman's eyes. "What should I call you?"
"I am the Mistress Aliena, kind sir," the lady laughs. "Now, do tell me. Who are your friends, and why were you sneaking up on my wagon?"
"The elf is my friend Deragor. And this is Primrose Perianth," Bolin replies, holding an open hand out toward Prim.

Prim will take the middle, Also watching up, down, l, r.
Taxidea will bring up the rear with Alora.
"...at worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
... with Bolin in the middle of the group to protect Prim if necessary.
You travel through the tunnels and caverns for what feels like a day and a night before Bolin suggests you all take a rest.
Orion offers to take the first watch.
Prim can take last watch as long as she gets her long rest
Okay. The first watch goes peacefully. The only sound you hear is the distant dripping of water. Who has the second watch?
Tacidea can take the second watch, but he doesn’t see well in the dark.

"I'M UP!",Prim says with a start, and starts her turn. (Did we have a fire or torches?)
I don't know. I assume you had a few torches for those who cannot see in the dark, and you may have built a fire when you stopped to rest.

Okay. Whoever does not have darkvision should have gotten at least five small torches or a hooded lantern before leaving the village.
(Thanks, added lamp & oil)
Okay. Prim, as the rest of the party sleeps, you here a strange sound, at least one supposedly foreign to the Frelian Underdark. It is the sound of a carriage creaking its way down a rocky dirt road.
Prim will wake Bolin and Deragor.
(whispering) "Psst. Bolin, Deragor. I hear a carriage. Lets check it out."
Orion snores gently, and rolls over.
Bolin and Deragor follow Prim.

(OOC: Prim woke them for the dark vision. She urges stealth as they go to check it out & wait to see if there's trouble.)
