The kender rushes towards the boat trying to get inside one as fast as he can.
Shan turns towards the goblins and the dog and simply says.
"Go to the boats. I got this." the calm on her voice is in contrast with the glibberish of the goblins and the bark of the dogs.
She closes her eyes and let her conscience flow into her inner energies. She starts to wave her hands ignoring the arrows that pass near her and feeling the energy of the magic flowing trough her veins like a river that burns her, but that burning makes her feel more alive and happy than nothing in the whole Krynn.
She produces some rose petals and sand from one of the hidden pocktes of her white robe and start murmuring some magic words.
"Ast tasarak sinuralan kyrnawi"
As she waves her hand and the sand and roses fall from it their pursuers start to fall to the ground.
She exhales and takes a moment to catch her breath leaning on her staff as the magic leaves her body, leaving her momentary weak. And she retreats to the boats with the others.
Seeing Shan stop, Alex will draw his bow and watch in wonder as she casts her spell. Being ever vigilant Alex will watch to see what happens to the goblins as they charge their position.
As the group watches most of the onrushing goblins tumble down to sleep, the others stop and start backing away. The dog is nowhere to be found nor heard and is probably asleep too.
It takes a few seconds for the rest of them to reach the boats.
For those who have stayed behind and who are keeping watch on the beach it is easy to hear that the full militia is coming there way.
Elona curses in Elvish then adds in a more serene manner " They really want this staff."
"I am inclined to agree with Shan, but what do they want it for. We still don't know what the staff is able to do." As Alex starts making his way to the boats. "We need to keep moving non the less."
"It heals people Alex!" says the acute voice of the kender from the other boat. " I saw how it healed the burnings in that mean man at Otis fireplace..."
It seems that the excitment of that fact is able to take out the kender for his silence.
Brenton, satisfied that the goblins are backing off.... or sleeping.... breaks cover and heads to the boats, helping the others in and getting ready to shove off. He states aloud to those gathered, "If anyone has any idea on where we should go from here, say it now. It's going to be a mad dash on the water."
"Any boats we aren't taking, cut them loose - or scuttle them if you can. No need to make this a boat chase."
Cairn rushes up behind bring up the rear giving the boat the last push to get into the water and jumps in grabbing an oar and starts to row using the momentum from the push.
"Aye tha' staff 'as some good in it. Tha' much is clear. What if these folks are the bad ones? Like they don't like the good in the world"
Zar begins to cut the boat's lines and then grabs a couple of boats and begins to pull them into the water."Lets get to moving, those goblins will come with reinforcements"
(Are we on one boat or multiple? Like are they the size of a canoe or and out rig style of fishing vessel? Because Cairn will act to push out the last boat if it's a few. Also what is the limitation of the sleep spell, Shan? Like do they get to save per turn or is it a set amount of turns? Or could we accidently wake them?)
( As long as we do not hit them they will sleep the night. I guess that eventually the rest will find their courage and come back and wake up them. That's why time is of the essence. And there were more than one boat... )
(Perfect. Yes. Cairn will be the last one on the water trying to cover what tracks we had left, maybe not all but some to hide our numbers at least. (I can roll survival if need be.))
The companions board the boat in a hurry and start rowing toward the center of the lake unsure yet of their final destination.
On the beach a swarm of soldiers can be seen arriving and several of them send arrow toward the bots to no effect.
Elona looks at the others. "I m very sorry to have put you in this situation. I ll need to take the Staff to someone who can help me understand its purpose."

"OK - ideas for someone who knows a lot about the arcane or the divine. What of that old man with the stories at the inn? Where's he from?"
Noticing the crowd gathering on the shore, he states, "For the meantime, let's just get away from them."
// Perception or Survival Check... 20... to find a spot to land the boats far enough from the Seekers that they get a solid lead, but not so far that they can round the lake and cut us off. //
With the help of Algrenon and Solomon, Brenton easily finds a remote beach hidden from sight by large outcroppings of rocks. The beach leads into a small cave they used to play inside of when they were younger.
Elona looks at Brenton, " The old man told me to take the staff to the forgotten city of XakTsaroth. Its far to the east of here …. " She looks at the others "and we would have to go around Solace."

Fangor breaks for one of the boats as well. "We could find shelter in a nearby forest."

Fangor watches the soldiers then turns to his friends. "It looks like we'll have to stay away from Solace for awhile. Where should we go next?"

Can Taylon roll a cartographer's tool check to see if he has some old map of it? INT based? so INT mod+Prof? In case is a yes: 7

"Shanryar has the look of someone who had an epiphany - please share," Brenton says with a tired chuckle.
"If you point it out on a map, I'm guessing between all of us here we can figure out the best path to take."
