Mullo stares at Dork as if trying to intuit something before nodding slightly and turning away, not saying anything.
Whether intentionally or not, in that brief moment of trying to intuit something about the construct, Mullo at least would getting the feeling of wariness from construct whenever any night time raiding/action got mentioned by the group. A likely result of some lingering trauma or regret from the last time the group thought to take advantage of darkness even with Ilezneya blessing of sight.

"I have not forgotten the blessing of night vision, Dusk Warden. Although this ability to incapacitate the others with forced slumber is... new to me." D.O.R.K said with her last words having a bit of an edge to them for just a second. "Be that as it may, all is noted. Mayhaps then I shall reach out to... to Torrun first, and see if... if he could perhaps provide some insider intel with more conciseness than our goblin allies."
On that note, D.O.R.K put her head to the side of where an ear should be and began her message. "Torunn. This is Red. Group aware of situation and are near. Planning to set free you and others. Hostiles Noted. Requesting... further advice."

The dwarf stopped for a brief second when he hears D.O.R.K.'s voice on his head.
"May Gond be praised" he thinks while keep on working not to make his captors to notice it.
"Good to hear'ya lad. Meet me at the river, near the mill tonight. can't talk now"
He immediately fakes a cough to masks his mutter words to his friend. The Yalkfolk that oversees their work glances at him but he assures that everything is ok with a wave of his hand, but when his captor looks away he cannot help a grin on his lips
As others are perhaps waiting on answer from the construct, there's a long moment of silence from her before there's a metallic clang from her facepalming. "... It would seem that there's a possibility of there being more going on than just meets the eye, as... Torunn has insisted we somehow meet him at the river near the mill. Tonight."She explained to the others as stared off and up towards the village. "No exacting time frame given. I could inquire into that one more time. But in the interest of conserving strength, it may be wiser to instead focus our energy towards figuring out where we might settle down until then."

"Gond be praised"Toruun thinks while he keeps on working "Good to hear'ya lad. Got captured a while back. They lock me and tother dwarf in the cage outside the mill every night! "
"A tall order, Dusk Warden, and one that would invite Tymora or Bashaba to meddle with things, if either fancy intruding upon our holy mandate... But not wholly a poor decision." D.O.R.K conceded to a point, before then raising a hand. "Also, small correction. Following a reanalysis of my conversation with Torunn, it seems he meant to say that he, along with another dwarf, are imprisoned in the cage within the previously mentioned area. Another new wrinkle, if we should aim to do a night raid, unless some of us have a talent or means to unlock said cages."

"I have such talent and means, though it is not something I have used much. I can free them from the cages." Devin says. "So what is the plan? Day or night raid? If we rest tonight and go in the morning we can prepare the spells we feel we may need to ensure the best outcome possible."
"If we can find somewhere safe to rest, it would be good to attack around dawn, this may be a better, but I do feel a little exposed here."responds Ebonitus.

"Both good considerations and things I had allowed to -- as this one gnome in Lantan I knew would say -- 'perculate on my own backburners' up to now. But an extensive rest raises the odds of us being detected, and things going sideways even more so. At least without some far more guaranteed method of sheltering ourselves from both the elements and attention then what a mere cliffside path might provide in the endeavor." D.O.R.K admits.
"However, there is a simple solution, if albeit risky one, in utilizing the cave we passed by earlier. Those creatures we saw before no doubt roost there from time to time. So, rather than waste the day in its entirety, shall we retreat there, set up an ambush for the beasts, and then potentially rest there the for night and make infiltrate at dawn? In this way, m-my... *a-HEM*... Torrun and those he might have time to be able to also prepare and conspire with other slaves in preparation for the assault?"
"Sounds like a good plan. I think a couple of us have the ability to ritually summon a protected sphere where we may rest in comfort and security, too. We can set them up in alternating fashion, overlapping in time so if the chimera come earlier than anticipated, or we are hurt in a fight, we have a safe refuge," Ilezenya offers.
Mullo would know that Chimera hunt as effectively at night as they do during the day!

"Perhaps backtracking a little way to be behind a bend in the mountain wall - as long as no others come up or down this path..."
