Nephrius, still on guard from the incident with the wolves is the first to notice a goblin on the rope bridge in front and above the pathway the group is on. At this moment he believes he is hidden, but Nephrius can make his form out in the low light.
Nephrius is shaken slightly after the wolfs but glad they are out of the way.
She replies to Harukai. "Thankyou, I would not move if you did not come."
When she notices the goblin up on the bridge she draws her bow and whispers to the others. "I see a small shape to small for dwarf, I think I can get them."
OOC. would Neph have advantage from sneak or just sneak damage?
He is aware the party is there because of the torchlight, but cannot see you because of your good stealth roll. You will have advantage in this instance and sneak damage also.
"Shoot true!" Jackson whispers to Nephrius as he watches the tabaxi fire a shot into the darkness. Jackson will ready one of the arrows he has into his shortbow, holding the shot should an arrow be fired back at their general direction.
OOC: Where is Nephrius leading us? Further down the center passage, into the passage to the left, or checking out that vertical shaft in the wolf room?

The group passes under the bridge and comes into a large cavern with two long rooms. There is a passage immediatly to the right that passes down a hallway. There are three goblins in the room, but they are currently at the rear of the room sitting by a campfire and do not yet notice your group
(OOC: Assuming the room is lit by the campfire, what can we see about the goblins? Are they armed? If we were to attack, would they have any other means of escape? Is there any sign of Gundren?)
The goblins have bows and shortswords, but are not activley weilding them. The room has three exits. The one you came through, the hall to the right, and one on the south side of the chamber, but you cannot see where it leads
"This cave appears to be fairly intricate. I propose two options -- one: we take out these three goblins quickly before any of them have an opportunity to run; or two, a couple of us stay here to keep watch on these goblins, while another pair accompanies Nephrius to map the rest of the tunnel. Nephrius will report back, and we can regroup and come up with a plan. What say you, all?"Jackson whispers to the group.
Harukai holds the torch low, behind his back, so as not to advertise their approach. Looking at the others, he is ready to spring into action against the unaware goblins. Not sure of the exact plan, Harukai looks to Jackson for the call...
OOC: Assuming we are going to attack, but I am open to suggestions. Just trying to move us forward.

OOC: You ninja'd my post!
Thinking quickly, Harukai replies quietly, "I would be reluctant to separate the party, or to leave enemies behind. I like the first option. Let us attack with surprise while we can."

Harukai sets the torch down slowly behind himself as he crouches, drawing his quarterstaff and steadying himself for the sprint to the enemy. He nods that his is ready and prepares to close the distance as soon as the bowshot is fired.

OOC: Jackson, I believe we have a majority in favor and are waiting for you to light off this fight with a bow shot. I will put my attack in a spoiler for when my turn comes up.
As the arrow files towards the unsuspecting goblins, Harukai races it to the campfire, springing suddenly like a great cat closing in on its kill. With his quarterstaff gripped firmly in both hands, he swings it hard at the ribs of one of the foul creatures. Harukai then follows up with a spinning kick at any enemy still standing. (Move, attack with quarterstaff, bonus with unarmed)
Quarterstaff attack: Attack: 18 Damage: 9
Unarmed attack: Attack: 18 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

Nephrius shakes of the last of the scare from the wolfs and raises her hand to stop the group for a moment, lifts her bow and releases an arrow.
Shortbow: 17 Damage: 4 Sneak: 1

"Shoot true!" Jackson whispers to Nephrius as he watches the tabaxi fire a shot into the darkness. Jackson will ready one of the arrows he has into his shortbow, holding the shot should an arrow be fired back at their general direction.
The arrow flies true through the darkness, striking the goblin in the chest. He falls from the bridge into the river with a small splash.

OOC. Nephrius was leading the group straight ahead when she saw a goblin on the bridge. If no one says anything different she will continue forward.

Jackson nods at Harukai and prepares a shot with his bow. He awaits for the rest of the party to prepare their attacks.

"I am happy with both plan, but we seem that first is best." Nephrius replies in whisper to the group.
She puts away her bow and pulls her sword and dagger so that she can be close if any goblin tries to escape.
OOC. What is our stealth like at the moment, are we hidden enough?
GM - Limbo's Pit PvE
Yes, the quick kill on the bridge goblin kept them from being alerted. They are unaware of your presence.

(OOC: Wanted to give Koren an opportunity to be included in the surprise attack but I suppose we'll move forward.)

Action -- Attack with shortbow: 10 Piercing Damage: 2
Bonus Action -- War Priest Attack: 15 Piercing Damage: 7
Object Interaction -- After firing off his two arrows, Jackson stows his Shortbow and pulls out his shield.
Jackson stays put with his shield up and contemplates his next move.
