The orc's eyes widen ever so slightly. "No! Orc never betray! Even on death!" His voice seems to falter slightly on death, betraying the slightest hint of fear.

The kobold takes Thurodurk's javelin full on, bleeding profusely from the wound, but continues to try and move whatever it's moving.
Jessica! (Giving Thurodurk this turn out of initiative because he saw the kobold. People can still roll initiative and join in, but it's pretty weak already.)

Guthric fishes a small bone pipe from his cloak, "This whistle is blessed by elders of my people. It was given for when I return proven as Pack Blood. In the forests days south of here, sounding the whistle will alert my peoples' packs to come."
Handing the whistle to the captain, Guthric gives a reluctant shrug, "It would be many days before they would arrive, so I would make myself useful how I can until then."

Ruby scowls, ‘why don’t some people believe me, my eyes are red because of my parents blood, end of story’ she thinks as she pulls out a coin and starts fiddling with it, tears starting to form in her eyes at the thought of her dead parents. ‘No, I must compose myself.’ she thinks as she puts away the coin and pulls out her dagger, chucking it against the wall then whistling for her pet rat to retrieve it a couple of times to pass the time.

suddenly you are missing your wallet
when you have a crossbow held against your head and you still ask the dwarf if he has any money on him
With his papers in hand, Xerlax emerges over the ridge. In sight is a tent where he hopes to find the Captain mentioned in his orders.
Xerlax’s scales are silver and are only outshined by the armor and the shield hanging off his shoulder. His right hand balances a huge warhammer - decorated in intricate carvings and runes - over his other shoulder.
He approaches the tent, pauses to make sure he is at the right place, and enters.
Jessica's arrow takes down the kobold immediately. The kobold doesn't even seem to realize that it's died for a moment, standing still on the cliff above, before teetering into the pit. You all pause for a moment, seeing if anything else happens. After a minute or so of silence, one of the soldiers says, "I think that was the last one." You all are able to proceed across the pit unhindered. The sun is lower in the sky than it was when you first encountered this pit, and you'll have to break for camp soon.
Everyone gains 35 XP! Liron, Thurodurk, and Paren all gain an extra 15 XP for setting up a way across the pit!
Wraith arrives at the animal pens just in time to hear the orc's explanation of what a "sacred vessel" was. "Wait! I will tell you! Sacred vessel houses spirit of great warrior long passed! Warmonger told how to make. I know no more! Free me!" The orc's tone of voice was desperate. Something had definitely changed between the beginning of the interrogation and this point in time.
Captain Gubb accepted Guthric's bone whistle and was about to give Guthric an assignment when Xerlax entered into his tent. Gubb looked Xerlax up and down, breaking away from Guthric for a moment. He took a moment to look over Xerlax's assignment papers, and signing off on them, he addressed Xerlax directly. "You must be the dragonborn I was told that was coming. You're early, to say the least." Gubb suddenly glanced between Guthric and Xerlax. "Actually, I think I might have a special assignment for you. I want you two to gather up some men and go scout out around the area. Try to find where the orcs came from, and then report back here with your findings. Dismissed!"
Feldri bowed to Manon as she joined the group. "Sister Manon, it is a pleasure to have you join us. I will offer again to answer any questions any of you have before we set out." If no one has any questions, you all set out into the swamp. Establish a marching order and have one person make a Survival check. Anyone can offer to Help with the Survival check.
War Party B
Init: 12
(How far away is the kobold?)
The kobold is 50 feet away, considering the distance between the other side of the pit and the cliff height.
War Party C
The orc's eyes widen ever so slightly. "No! Orc never betray! Even on death!" His voice seems to falter slightly on death, betraying the slightest hint of fear.
(I would have disadvantage for long range then, right?)
Disadvantage roll: 22
