(Thanks y'all. I'm the last man standing at the moment which means I'll be sick by Friday.)
After a night of recovery the party makes ready for their next adventure. Heading to the stables after breakfast you prepare the horses and cart for the journey. (You could have got up and bought any additional supplies first thing. PHB prices just let me know and add it to your sheet.)
Shortly after everything is squared away you see an over loaded cart turn the corner. Ben and his two assistants sitting on top.
Ben drives the cart up to the party and hops down.
"Top of the morning to you. I did not sleep a wink with excitement. Let me introduce my assistants. Tiny and aTim."
Tiny a 7 foot tall orc in fine lab where looks ill studied for a day on the road despite his well muscled frame, bows low.
"G'day looking forward to our journey"
Tim is a thin framed human of average hight. He looks at the party and simply nods
Ben "Tim don't talk much but he is shart as a knife and will one day out pace me as the authority on Teran ruins found in North Westera."
After a few pleasantries the party sets out North around the city then North West along the coast.
Marley greets Tiny and Tim, barely able to keep from asking Ben and Tim questions about Teran ruins and culture. But he reminds himself that it will be a long enough journey to allow plenty of time for that later. Assuming that Sam will do most of the driving since he seems to be the best at it, he jumps up in the cart to take shotgun unless the party want him to do something different. He keeps his bow handy and a eye out for trouble ahead.
Aquila speaks up.... "Keen eyesight Marley! I see it now!" And turning towards the Gnome, "We must aid them! Sir Ben, if you do want to risk the lives of your men, we will go alone, and rejoin you after!"
Her eyes flash w determination, and she urges her companions on... "this is why I joined your party! To confront the forces of suffering!"
She removes a wand from one of the many pockets of her paint splattered coveralls, grasps it tightly, ready for her first combat in some time.....
Sam says "Those are pirate flags. So we are talking about fighting skilled mercenaries.But, YES, I say lets go and aid them. Maz, Marley. What do you think?"
Aquila removes a small piece of leather from another pocket of her coveralls and mutters a few indistinguishable words while.moving her hand over her in a protective manner.... a dull barely imperceptible aura can now be seen surrounding her. She places the leather back in her pocket...

Marley scratches an ear and frowns as he considers what to do. "Perhaps get Ben and the carts to a safe spot, then we move in and try to catch them by surprise?" He studies the landscape ahead to look for any good potential hiding spots.

A few hours pass and the party is on a coastal road. Ben calls back.
"Map says there is a tavern or something about a mile ahead. Let's stop there for lunch."
Everyone roll perception please.

Aquila you are idley sketching the landscape when you notice a change. Smoke it starting to rise on the horizon.
Marley a bit more alert you see the smoke and something else strange. A black flicker. No it's a flag. Pointing it out to the party.
Sam you know what it means. Pirates, you spent your youth in the Marines fighting them and know that the inn up ahead is being raided.
Does the party ride to the aid of the inn and risk the Lives of the party or travel around the Inn avoiding the fight and leaving the inn to its fate?

She removes a wand from one of the many pockets of her paint splattered coveralls, grasps it tightly, ready for her first combat in some time.....
Ben looks a bit concerned. "We're under your protection and will go where you tell us"
Aquila looks towards Sam, Maz, and Marley... her eagerness to enter the fray is obvious...."what say you, men?
Sam says "Those are pirate flags. So we are talking about fighting skilled mercenaries.But, YES, I say lets go and aid them. Maz, Marley. What do you think?"

Marley doesn't look so sure at first as he notes Ben's concern, but soon shrugs and says with a half grin, "I suppose we should."
Aquila removes a small piece of leather from another pocket of her coveralls and mutters a few indistinguishable words while.moving her hand over her in a protective manner.... a dull barely imperceptible aura can now be seen surrounding her. She places the leather back in her pocket...
"I am prepared. What's the plan?"
Did you cast a spell? Or was that all RP
Mage armor
Cool. When you cast spells please announce what your casting.
👍
