This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Liathana continues to walk in the center of the group and feels guilty for not going to the helm. She was confident in her abilities, but the last time she had a crossbow bolt shot almost clean through her shoulder caused her to be a bit skittish about being near the front. She thumbed her nose as she said, "Let's hope we don't find another trap."

Lithiana: Now that the trap has been activated, there’s not much left of it, and you cannot make anything out of it. Perhaps you’ll be able to acquire more information from future traps, if there are any other. You’re confident this time you’ll be able to warn your teammates though.
The party finally decides to move on, staying alert for any other trap the goblins might have set.
Wolf Blade: As you walk, nothing out of the ordinary catches your sight. You feel somewhat safe now, at least when it comes to traps. You know, as mentioned by your Sorcerer friend, goblins might be waiting for you all. You ponder for a sec. There's definitely something ahead...
Eniallis: There’s something weird looking about an area on the floor…
Alexander: Feeling humiliated after falling for such a petty trap, you take a breather, and find courage to keep on walking, fearing you might dissapoint your party members.
Liathana: You immediately find a trap where Alexander is about to step. It’s a Pit!
Wolf Blade, Eniallis and Liathana have detected a trap!
Alexander, Eniallis, Liathana, Wolf Blade: Roll Initiative to warn Alexander in time, please.

"Ugh, another trap. Boring." Eniallis thinks to himself. "Alexander, you're walking straight into that pit trap. What's the matter with your senses? You really seem distracted."
"Damnable pit traps! These are some of the more dangerous types."

Hearing the warnings for Eniallis and Liathana Alexander looks down at the trap he is about to step into, strangely Wolf Blade is silent. Alexander manages to stop himself in time, saving himself from falling into the pit.
"Thank you both for warning me, today is just not my day. I agree Eniallis, I'm feeling very distracted today. Hopefully this will be the last trap before we find are destination. Come on let's continue."
Feeling a little shaken from almost falling into another trap Alexander continues on, sidestepping the pit trap and continuing on toward the end of the path.

Wolf Blade takes a look at the pit trap, dropping the possibility of the snare being a hunters trap and begins to see the seriousness of the situation, he points out "these traps weren't left to catch wild game"
"Is that right? Makes sense..." Liathana sighs, wiping some sweat from her brow. Traveling by foot was not the easiest thing, but she did her best to keep her composure and not resort to whining like she'd like to if these were close friends. "I certainly hope we aren't coming too late for our patron, Gundren. I hope nothing bad as befallen him..."

Liathana: There doesn’t seem to be anything else dangerous around, you’re sure of it.
Following the goblins' trail, you come across a large cave in a hillside five miles from the scene of the ambush. A shallow stream flows out of the cave mouth, which is screened by dense briar thickets. A narrow dry path leads into the cave on the right-hand side of the stream.
Alexander is now level 2! Liathana is now Level 2! Eniallis is now Level 2! Wolf Blade is now Level 2!
Liathana stops moving, hoping the others stop with her. She looks to her companions with grin, "Looks like we may have found the goblins' home, friends." The human scratches her nose, looking at the cave mouth in general. "Any ideas and how to best make our approach? I suspect they are expecting their pals we just massacred back on the road. I wonder how high alert they might be."

"I can see at least, upto 60 ft in the dark, I can help take lead" Wolf Blade suggests to the group, looking to Alexander being the current lead of the group
"I have dark vision as well Wolf Blade, and if we get attacked I rather me be in the front in case they have guards on duty. They may be armed with crossbows like there friends we took care of at the ambush site." "We may need to set up are own ambush and draw out any guards that may be in the mouth of the cave."
Thinking of a way to draw them out Alexander remembers that Eniallis understood the goblins back at the ambush site.
""Eniallis, if we can pick a good ambush site do you think that you can say anything in goblin to draw them out into the open? "

"Hmm, that could work. However my voice is not nearly deep enough to impersonate a goblin and even they are not dumb enough to just overlook that." Eniallis answers Alexander after putting down his heavy backpack. "How many do you think there are? If there are not too many of them, then..." he gets lost in thinking out (semi) loud.
Liathana looks sheepish for a moment and coughs, "So boys, I don't talk about it much, but I can spin a disguise on myself. Don't speak Goblin, but I could enchant myself for a long while to understand it. That's if we truly want to go a sneaky route."
She folds her arms and leans against a tree, "Course, I think doing all that will spend me, and, I think we might require my other expertise should one of us fall down again. What if we just hide and cause some sort of disturbance to lure someone out? Or could one of us sneak a little closer and take a peak. We don't have a clue how many we are up against anyhow."

"Four people will be hard to go unnoticed, Wolf Blade. I could bring them out, one by one with prestidigitation, if they are at least a little curious. But that would require me to be pretty close, that spell's range is garbage."
