(I'm fine going second to last. I would also cast pass without a trace on the group)

Marching Order: Genren ; Ronkur ; Tallow ; Manfred ; Perkas ; Wakka

Entering the concealed cave entrance, the group travels through the natural caverns with 20' high ceilings and no light. (What's your light plan for those without darkvision?) After heading eastwards for about 40', you come to a T-intersection, with a passage leading south and north-east. You hear a variety of sounds coming from both directions. DC18 Perception:

Ronkur darkvision, but he also has a driftglobe which lets him cast the cantrip Light as needed.

'Speak up if ya need light, otherwise keep yer hand on the person in front of ya so ya don't get lost'

Perception 13

(Perception: 19, after a lucky halfling re-roll!)

As the group enters the cave entrance Manfred frowns ‘Ahh, I’d forgotten about caves...’ with that he quickly whistles up some Dancing Lights to provide both him and Perkas some dim light to navigate by…

• Perception: 9 

"Thanks for the light Manny.  Was about to walk into a wall without it."  Wakka replied as the balls of light sprang into existence.  "And looks like we found something in caves based off of all this racket.  Think it's the sea monsters or something else?"  

Tallow perception 3 (Nat 1!)

Tallow walks right into a wall before bouncing off and almost tripping over his feet before the lights came on.  "SHHH! We might not be alone."

Tallow thinks the noise is just the wind whistling through the caves...(which way - up or down =)

If no objections, let's go South :)  

(South it is!) Genren has an arrow out and resting on his bow string as the proceed. He’s now walking on the walls. 

Perception: 13

Perkas keeps her eyes and senses open. lil Bess at the ready hearing things from both ways. She is thankful for the bit of lights they have. "Thanks for the illumination, I think we will need it."

(Post more when I get to a computer)

‘Wait guys!’ hisses Manfred quietly. ‘We should go North East - they’re closer that whatever is happening to the South…’

(A split decision - most folks were ready to head south but the bard brings up a point...do you change the direction?)

Quote from JorvikDave >>

‘Wait guys!’ hisses Manfred quietly. ‘We should go North East - they’re closer that whatever is happening to the South…’

"Maybe you're right.  But if we go around the long way - assuming there is a long way - maybe we can catch them by surprise?  Either way, we should decide before something finds us here chatting away"  Wakka replied quickly.

Ronkur reaches out with an invisible hand [spell[ Mage Hand [/spell] and catches Tallow as he bounces off the wall, all without losing his place in the stack or turning his head.  He keeps the invisible hand firmly on the little sorcerer's shoulder, keeping him in place and firmly behind his armored form.

He mumbles a bit about all the hesitation and sneaking about as he shakes out his massive armored gauntlets, each crackling with barely contained energy, eager to get in close to something.

Tallow gives Ronkur a head nod in thanks and sends a telepathic message to each in the group.  It is a vision of a clock ticking.

Genren thinks for a moment. “Or we could be missing the spearhead of another attack no? North east makes sense for eliminating the immediate danger even though I do like the tactic Wakka, since not everyone can see well, getting the jump might be difficult regardless…”

(Since Genren is the first in line, you decide which way to go. Unless the party wants to split up <insert evil laugh here>)

"I think we may be over thinking things, especially with what little information we know.  Let's just keeping moving forward and figure it out when we run into to something.  I'm sure it'll be fine..."  Famous last words xp 

(He continues on his original trajectory)
