Keyleth slips off toward the commander's office to assist Rokah with the break-in and investigation, much more comfortable in that role than being part of the distraction.
As Keyleth moves away from the group she looks to the Inner Bailey. She sees that the walls are 16 feet in height and there is only one visible entrance on the west side. Several guards stand at or near the entrance.
She also realizes that she is the only person heading away from Timber, everyone else is watching or moving towards the show. But no one else seems to have realized that detail yet.
“Have you ventured into the jungle much? I was hear a long time ago and it was pretty wild then” Dr Arbutaveyu continues his discussion with the guard.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Kirinar watches the crowd, trying to see if anyone of a more...questionable nature...is also taking advantage of the situation. Someone like a pickpocket, who would certainly want to use this distraction to liberate a few coin pouches...
“Have you ventured into the jungle much? I was hear a long time ago and it was pretty wild then” Dr Arbutaveyu continues his discussion with the guard.
"Yes, a few times. And the jungle is still very wild. " the man replies distractedly as he watches Timber.
((Rokah is not wth you. He separated from you guys when you arrived at the fort so the Fist did not think you were together in case he gets caught. He just wanted a distraction which Timber is providing. You can safely assume he is doing what he came to the fort to do. ))
OoC: Ah, ok. Keyleth was planning to go help him, but if she doesn't know where he is then she probably can't do that and would just stay and watch the show.

Timber kept his act up for a few minutes. When he finished with a flourish the crowd gave him a round of applause. Several coins are thrown his way. Timber picks up 2 gold coins and 19 silver coins. Over time the crowd disperses as no additional act is forthcoming.
You hope you gave Rokah the time needed to do what he came to do.
Qawasha laughs as he approaches again.
"Well that was unexpected but a joy to watch. But you never told me what your goal was. Gold, treasure? Maybe lost cities? The day is growing old but we can leave now or in the morning."
TImber bows to the audience as his copies fade away. He collects the coins and heads back to the group. As he walks he whispers something in his native tongue and his eyes briefly flash green as he uses his Pearl of Power
When he gets to Qawasha, he responds, "I am here to learn the extent of my powers and how to control them. I have joined this group to try and do some good whilst I am here."
Qawasha listens to Dr A. and why they are in Chult. "Well, perhaps we should get moving right away then? I have heard of this death curse and have seen its effects. I was not aware the solution started in Chult. But there are many lost cities and such out in the jungle. Anything could be out there. Much of Chult is unknown even to many of the guides. But I will not steer you wrong in the jungle. It will be my job to help you so you can find what you seek."
Qawasha proposes you leave right away. Unless someone needs to do something else. Let me know or I will have you head out.
Since Ransyl left I have transferred a potion of healing and a rain catcher to Kirinar and a Stone of Good Luck to Keyleth that he had in his possession.
“Just a minute” Dr Arbutaveyu says as he slathers himself in insect repellant. Watching him rub it into his wrinkled and leathery hide is interesting to say the least. When he feels that he is as protected as he can be he says “right lets go!”
Kirinar follows the old tortle's example, having lived on the edge of a swamp he fully appreciated the value of a salve that would keep the biting insects away!
"Ah, right, good idea," Keyleth says, pulling out her own tin of insect repellent and slathering a thick layer on her face and hands, and the few other gaps in her attire that leave exposed skin.
An hour later with your gear ready you make your way out of the Fort, Qawasha leading the way. The daily activities at the fort have returned to normal. As you leave Keyleth catches sight of Rokah slipping out of the Inner Baily. He gives you a thumbs up and smiles as he watches you leave. Using Thieves' Cant he reports to her that he was successful in his mission.

Qawasha sets camp a few hours later. The oppressive heat strengthens as you head into the jungle. Qawasha leads you down paths you may have never found on your own. It has now been several days that you have been in the jungle. You hear many creatures but encounter nothing.
Along the way Qawasha explains that to the west lies the River Tiryki. Much of this area has undead activity, but you have encountered none. The Fist has explored all of this area. If this item you seek is to be found, it will be outside the areas that the Fist has already cleared out. He continues to travel almost due south from the fort.
It has now been 10 days when you stumble upon something. In a clearing along a path you come across an old camp. The tattered remains of tents can been seen. It is hard to tell how old the camp is, rain has removed all tracks. You find a couple dead adventurers. Their bodies torn apart, possibly even fed upon by unknown creatures.
It is still early in the day. To the west lies the river a couple days away. Almost due east now are the ruins of Port Castigliar, to the south east the ruined city of Mezro.
The fighter pauses to survey the area, looking and listening for whatever destroyed the camp - most likely undead creatures. If it seems that the area is clear, he will cautiously explore the camp, keeping an eye on the bodies lest they rise up to attack!
"Man, this jungle isn't anything like the swamplands back home. I've never seen plants like these - and every one of them has some way to hurt you! Pointed tips, thorns, knife-like leaves, sap that make your skin go numb. And the creatures - venomous, mean, and hard to spot! How do you live here?!?"

(Do i need to anything to keep the performance/distraction going?)
((No. Was waiting to see what Keyleth was doing) )
OoC: Oh, sorry -- what's Rokah up to? Is he with Keyleth?
