Gen takes the 20 and her hawk springs to life in her arms. Letting the creature take flight she begins to edge out from the protection of the deadfall.
"Is...did you find anyone else alive," Gen says standing up taking the staff in her hand like a clutch moving towards where her father had fallen who Isk looted. Kneeling beside him she begins to sob.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Nam steps away from the girl to let Griff and the others deal with her when something catches his eye. In a bush is tan colored bag. Nam begins a inspecting it openly. No reason to hide such an ordinary bag. He reaches inside the bag and feels something fuzzy. “What the....” Nam says as he takes the fuzzy thing out. Thinking it’s a bit of fur, he drops it to the ground. 8 He then watches as a form takes shape from the lump of fur. Nam starts yelling with some fear “ Guys! This thing is turning into a tiger!” Just as he is about to run, he realizes the 800 lbs cat is purring and licks his hand. Then with excitement “This Is Cool!”
Flint will take the quiver and slap Isk on the shoulder. "Thank you friend! I owe you one." The large man will say as he dumps his 60 bolts into the quiver and drops his old quiver on the ground.
Nam walks over to Isk with the tiger at his side “cool ain’t it” then turns to the group “I agree. We should head the direction they cam from and maybe one of our animals” with a big grin on his face “ can pick up the trail”

Griff kneels down and brushes some hair away from Gens face. He lets out a sharp whistle and Lucy comes to his side. He takes Gens hand and places it on the fur of the large wolf.
"Its ok Gen, we're not going to hurt you. Are you alright? Those... things... attacked our camp too and we barely made it out alive. Do you know if anyone else made it out alive?"
"No. I.... I think it's just....me," Gen says petting the wolf's coat.
The young half-elf looks around at the party her eyes lingering on the gear of her family troop.
"I....iI....if their gear helps please take it," Gen says rising up to get feet. "I think I'm going to return to my village," she says glumily. "I...there's no one left but me now," she adds.

"Yes...I know where one entrance is," Gen replies. "My da...he kept his map in his head," she says with a sniffling another sob as her hawk returns to her staff to perch there. "Thank you," she then says smiling at Karnic, "for my life as well as his," she adds with a small smile.
OOC: EVERYONE level up!!

"I can't tell you. I have to be there," Gen replies getting nervous. "My...that's was my job," she added, "and heal," she adds quickly, "but there was too many. They woke us," she trails off.

“It’s not your fault, It’s the maze. That’s why we need to find it and maybe we can put an end to all this. What do you mean when you say ‘you have to be there’?”
"The maze...it talks to me," Gen replies. "Or....well my mother does through it sometimes. My mother....she died in the maze not long after I was born," she explains her hands gripping the staff as the hawk ruffles it's feathers as if feeling the half-elf's discomfort. "Please...I need to find her remains. I thought without my family I couldn't do it but if you are still brave enough to go throught it after what happened here tonight I could be of use. We could put my mother to rest," she adds her tone seemingly tittering between tears and determination to be confident.
Through your observation Isk realises the party found her near death but she did survive the assault on her entire family troop and cleverly too by crawling into the deadfall! She might have expended every spell or gift at her disposal but you can see she even sacrificed her animal companion trying to beat back the dread! To you, she seems capable if not poorly lead into a bad situation.

"My friends, I see a warrior's heart in this one. She used cleverness and skill to survive the attack, two things this group could use more of, " Isk says with a hearty chuckle. He then puts his hammer in the belt loop and pulls an amulet from under his tunic. It is a silver right hand holding a hammer. He holds it in his right hand saying, "I'll keep watch over her. Gen, I will help find your mother's remains and see you through the maze safely. I make this pledge to you. May Torm judge me harshly if I fail."
Flint will leave the survivor in good hands and continue to search through the remains of the nearby camps, no longer looking for exotic items or weapons... nearly looking for useful tools and supplies. "There have to be some additional healers kits and rations around here" He would say aloud to himself, removing his kettle helm and wiping sweat from his forehead. He would then take the time to look through the remains tents, pick up and shake out bed rolls, and give the area a thorough last look before joining the others and heading towards the entrance of the maze.
Aethene needs to roll investigation.

Isk looks at the tiger and is totally confused
Flint will take the quiver and slap Isk on the shoulder. "Thank you friend! I owe you one." The large man will say as he dumps his 60 bolts into the quiver and drops his old quiver on the ground.

"Gen, you father made it seem like he knew one or more entrances to the Maze... Do you, or did he have a map? Do you know where the maze entrance is?"
"Yes...I know where one entrance is," Gen replies. "My da...he kept his map in his head," she says with a sniffling another sob as her hawk returns to her staff to perch there. "Thank you," she then says smiling at Karnic, "for my life as well as his," she adds with a small smile.

Would Flint have been able to find any additional healers kits on any of the dead campers or in their camps?
Griff puts his hands on Gen's shoulders getting her attention back.
"Gen, where is the entrance to the maze?"
Isk takes a good look at Gen during these exchanges, trying to get the measure of her.
OoC - does she look like someone who could ha e handled herself in the maze, or not really?
Insight, Isk.
