"Then I guess you can relax and have a bite to eat. "The squirreling will say, pulling a bar from his vest and handing it to Brell. "My wife made it, it is acorns, hickory nuts, blueberries and honey and dried and stuck together!" kip will say licking his fingers after handing the sticky treat to he new friend.
Brell's eyes go wide moments before he begins devouring the treat. His face plows down upon it, the bar quickly stuffed in his mouth; the sound of chewing is all you here from him.
Vanyel's axe digs deep into her back as she attempts to flee; causing her to stagger forward a few steps, hand on her wound, legs barely able to stand. She soon falls to her knees and begs you; "I.. I surrender! Lock me away, but get me to a healer!!" Tears of pain run down her face.
Vanyel strides over to the small female and grabs her by her hair and drags her to her feet, placing his axe to her throat and shouts out in a loud voice. "STOP NOW OR WATCH HER HEAD ROLL. I GAVE YOU A CHANCE TO LET US BY WITHOUT BLOODSHED BUT YOU IGNORED MY OFFER. STOP, OR ALL WILL MEET THE FATE SHE WILL IF YOU CHOOSE TO IGNORE ME ONCE AGAIN!" He hoped that this would cause them to think again about their fate.
Ash would take a piece of the nut bar when offered, "Thank you, pleasure to meet you both. Any ideas on where to go from here? What were you two up to before I stumbled on you?"
"Yup, I am hoping that any moment we hear some good news and are pointed towards our companions!" Kip will say to Ash with a big smile, his tail twitching high above his head in excitement.
(Is there anything I can / should be doing to help them?)
"Yup, I am hoping that any moment we hear some good news and are pointed towards our companions!" Kip will say to Ash with a big smile, his tail twitching high above his head in excitement.
"It is quite fortuitous that I stumbled across you, I only just a few minutes ago began searching for you, perhaps if we just set out and walk in a particular direction we will stumble across some of our other...dream..companions?"
"That works" Kip will say with a nod. "Brell, we are going to head off in this direction to look as well. Please let us know if you find the others!" The squirreling will say giving him a hug.
Vanyel cuts lightly along the neck of the female Mocker; causing her to cry out again. Mercury, you hear Penris swing at someone behind you; turning you see two more bandits turning away from you, accidentally dodging Penris' attack.
Seeing them start to flee, you blast one of them in the back for good measure; hastening their retreat. The female Mocker cries out in pain, forced to stand with her back heavily bleeding and sliced open.
Kip and Ash head in the general direction of the rest of the group, Ash; this is all new to you. The tiny hands of Kender pressing against your body, the beautifully gardened and maintained Halfling district, the countless Squirrelings that you pass; all of which seem to also be looking for your friends.
Eventually the two of you reach a less than maintained area, with more Bugbears then Halflings, and these ones look less cheerful. The Kender flood is about half as dense; but don't seem to care about the mood shift of the district.
Watching the woman struggling and bleeding in Vanyel's grip, Penris stands and speaks. "You cannot win," she says. "Surrender and we will spare you. Tell your companions to come out. I swear on Krythlynn's name that we will not harm you if you surrender." She leans down to Mercury and whispers, "We've got rope to tie them up with, right?"
"Then I guess you can relax and have a bite to eat. "The squirreling will say, pulling a bar from his vest and handing it to Brell.

Mercury, your blast hits with such force, that he is knocked tumbling down the hill; his crossbow tumbling away from him.
Penris, you see two people quietly sneaking up behind Mercury; blades drawn.
(Extra damage die for crit - 8)
When the Eldritch Blast hit the man in the head, a spray of red can be seen briefly, before he tumbled down the hill.
Vanyel strides over to the small female and grabs her by her hair and drags her to her feet, placing his axe to her throat and shouts out in a loud voice. "STOP NOW OR WATCH HER HEAD ROLL.

Ash would take a piece of the nut bar when offered, "Thank you, pleasure to meet you both. Any ideas on where to go from here? What were you two up to before I stumbled on you?"
Penris will sneak up behind those trying to attack Mercury. Raising her father's blade, she slices at the one closest to her.
Attack: 10 Damage: 4
Sneak Attack: 2
"Kip here just called out for Squirreling aid. If your friends are anywhere nearby, they'll be found." Brell says to Ash.
"Yup, I am hoping that any moment we hear some good news and are pointed towards our companions!" Kip will say to Ash with a big smile, his tail twitching high above his head in excitement.
(Is there anything I can / should be doing to help them?)
(If you want Brell to wait here for word, you could go search too. Or do anything else really, lol.)
"It is quite fortuitous that I stumbled across you, I only just a few minutes ago began searching for you, perhaps if we just set out and walk in a particular direction we will stumble across some of our other...dream..companions?"
"That works" Kip will say with a nod. "Brell, we are going to head off in this direction to look as well. Please let us know if you find the others!" The squirreling will say giving him a hug.
Mercury turns around to face the two people sneaking up on him and fires an Eldritch Blast at them.
Attack - 18 / Damage 4

I swear on Krythlynn's name that we will not harm you if you surrender." She leans down to Mercury and whispers, "We've got rope to tie them up with, right?"
"I've already surrendered." She yells out. "And they aren't coming out; they're already gone." Tears of pain roll down her face.
Suddenly five Squirrelings run up. "Here they are!!!" One calls out. "You said that the last three times." Another replies to them.
