"Regarding about the watch, I'm willing to take the first shift. Maybe during that time the captives would have a change of mind.
But enough about that, let's talk about business. 10 coppers would get you enough to fill your craving for meat. Not even a quarter of the day had passed since it was killed so I can assure you it's as fresh as it can get. There's also plenty enough for everyone to eat.
I'm willing to accept credit, just like what the old man proposed earlier. How many portions would you like to get?"
Handy digs a few more coppers from his satchel, "Here, ten you say ..."handing it to slightly over eager genasi. In return he gets a handful of some tough, disgusting, stringy meat. He is tempted on first taste to spit it out just like the little girl but steals himself and eats. He needs the nourishment. "I can take second watch" Handy looks at the others to see how this will lineup.

Aeros comes back in smiling. And then tosses a gold to Waft. "Ill gladly pay to return the favor of trying to eat me. I dont have change, so just keep it and share the meat as we do."
Aeros will eagerly chew on the meat. "Not bad, kinda gamey. Probly be a real good stew meat."
"It might make sense to push for reaching Phlan this day. The man I'm carrying seems to still be alive, but probably needs a priest sooner rather than later."
"Besides, the smell of food might draw in bears or worse, which would make spending the night here a hazardous option."
"I have some abilities in healing and it would seem many are in need of a rest. My vote, if you will allow it to count, is to follow the original proposed plan and make the cave our shelter for the night. If there are needs we can meet them as the night requires and we will head towards Phlan in the morning. How do the rest of you vote. I wont stop you if you decide to travel at present. I just advise against it under the current conditions and dangers."
"You know what the elders always say, early to bed and early to rise makes and man healthy, wealthy and wise.
We will depart early at sunrise. Remember, we're currently in a marsh. I don't have any particular knowledge of beasts living in this place but I'm sure it would be harder to notice them in the dark."

"I understand that you are feeling many strong emotions right now and would love to understand everything that has happened. We are here to provide you all the answers that we can. Do you understand?"
"We are near where you were held. You are not in captivity any more, but we are not completely safe yet either. It would be very helpful if you could try moving your limbs to see if anything is broken. Also, what is your name?"
"Take a few deep breaths, I'll check if I can feel any broken ribs."
Chenna will continue to calm the man and try to understand his situation and who he is and how he got into this.
He then makes sure he hands out (forcefully) the wolf meat to each and every released prisoner. As he reaches the newly startled guy for his portion of meat, he starts talking to him.
"We heard the Zhentarim would compensate us nicely if we found one of their valuable agents missing here at Skull Marsh and you seem to fit the description.
Tell us, what information do you have for them to go through such lengths to put a bounty on a lone individual?"
The man does not seem to has another physical injury, except for few bruises. He takes a breath and releases it. He looks at Waft.
"The Black Order always got its agents' back and I take it it's not a good idea to try to interrogate one" He says as he breathes heavily as he looks for his surroundings.
"We have no time to waste" He tries to stand "With this number of people we can take out those creatures! Let me borrow your swords, we can talk compensation back in Phlan"
"No can do, everyone is tired and needs rest. Besides, our paladin friend right there made a good deal with the goblins for everyone's release. He'll not like what you'll do if you decide to attack them.
Besides, you're already gone for two days. A night's rest would not make it significantly longer. So just chill and relax next to the other captives and eat this meat. Then tomorrow morning we'll immediately head out to Phlan."

The man grunts and lean himself to the wall to support himself.
"Listen, we - all the people near here - are in danger here - before I got knocked out, these goblins - I saw them receive an order from a mysterious man to excavate the remains of the Skullfang, the Black Dragon - and this man - this man is capable of necromancy, I saw him with undead escorts few days back while I am traveling here to the Marsh. If this is part of something bigger, then we're doomed!"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.

"Listen.. Bob.. As they said, I made a promise. It looks like you are more after the necromancer and not necessarily the henchmen. Would it make sense to get the civilians safe, rest up and then take it from there?"

Lot's of stuff ...
"You're truly a business man if you can sell that for 10 coppers, Waft. I'd rather go hungry."
Vortrin sighs slightly.
"I'll take third. I've got nothing better to do."

"Thank you for your patronage."
Waft pockets the copper coins handed to him by Handy as he speaks with their dragonborn.
"I technically already sold two, so you could say I'm quite a businessman Vortin.
How about you Aeros? This fine piece of roasted wolf meat really compliments your already primal and ferocious appearance.
Since we're fellow genasi, I'll give you a limited special offer. Buy two portions of this meat and I'll add one for free. What do yo say?"
Aeros comes back in smiling. And then tosses a gold to Waft. "Ill gladly pay to return the favor of trying to eat me. I dont have change, so just keep it and share the meat as we do."
Aeros will eagerly chew on the meat. "Not bad, kinda gamey. Probly be a real good stew meat."

Fourth shift anyone? So everyone gets 6 hour sleep and 2 hour watch time.
Aeros will take 4th shift, hoping everything is quiet as he pats his bandages.

Handy quickly uses some of the tricks he is familiar with to bring life back into the almost unconscious man that Chenna carried in: healing word: 6

The man's wounds are magically getting better and better. His hand twitches and not long after he slightly opens his eyes.
"Goblin...cowards.....what....is this..."
Realizing he isn't in cage anymore, he get startled and tries to moves away to the walls, but hasn't recovered enough strength yet.
"The goblins! Damn it! Ugh! Where is this!"

"Hey, it doesn't mean that if they dabble in necromancy they are automatically evil. Maybe it's part of his job as a researcher or something."
Though Waft doesn't discriminate people because of their occupation, he tries to remember if the practice of necromancy is illegal within Phlan.

Recalling for few seconds, Waft can't recall if he ever see anything Necromancy-related in Phlan.
