Saralyssa and Wisp, the ogre and dwarf appear to be nothing more than muscle. Their personal belongings amount to the weapons they carry and the clothes on their back.
Seeker, it is early dawn.
The woman does not have the time or skill to cover her tracks, and Urmdir has no trouble following her through the pine forest. He finds her lying in the dirt ten minutes later, gasping and clutching at her ankle. She draws her dagger, her eyes burning with pain and anger. "Come any closer and I'll cut your throat!" She spits.
"Nothing but a nut and bolt." Saralyssa says as she stands up from the large brute. "Hopefully they can catch up with the woman, she might know something at least."
Urmdir stows his flail and shield and approaches the woman without fear. He stops right out of her reach and kneels down in front of her. "Is your ankle hurt? My brother can look at it and help you." Urmdir gaze focuses on the dagger. "You have already proven you are not ready to die. I suggest you put that away. You can answer our questions, and we will let you go - with a working ankle."

The thin woman considers this for a brief moment, and then shakes her head. "I remain loyal to The Toad to the last." Before Urmdir can make a move, she falls on her dagger.
Tank sheathes his greatsword in a ponderous motion. "I do not think Glem will return." He says sadly. "He is not a bad man, but all of his actions are driven by fear of the world around him." He nudges the moaning ogre with his foot. "What is to be done with this one?"
Seeker will move over and awkwardly try to pat Tank on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll catch up to him at the next town or find your own new path. As for this one, mercy may not have worked well for us last time, but I cannot recommend anything else."
"Well we better get on after the wagon as well." Saralyssa informs the others. "Whisp is on the wagon remember..." She does not say 'with the box' but makes sure the others of the group realize the potential issue with Whisp not being with them here and now.
"Already searched these two." Saralyssa says nodding to the dwarf and ogre, nothing there." She nods to the woman. "Let me know if she has anything though."
Wisp looks up to Seeker, "Just some bruising, minor scratches really" she was hurting but she didn't want to come off weak, "This Toad inspires great loyalty..."

Urmdir moves to where she was last seen. "Good idea, brother." He attempts to pick up her trail.
Survival: 7 plus 1 from guidance.
(What time of day is it?)
Saralyssa and Wisp, the ogre and dwarf appear to be nothing more than muscle. Their personal belongings amount to the weapons they carry and the clothes on their back.
Seeker, it is early dawn.
The woman does not have the time or skill to cover her tracks, and Urmdir has no trouble following her through the pine forest. He finds her lying in the dirt ten minutes later, gasping and clutching at her ankle. She draws her dagger, her eyes burning with pain and anger. "Come any closer and I'll cut your throat!" She spits.
"Nothing but a nut and bolt." Saralyssa says as she stands up from the large brute. "Hopefully they can catch up with the woman, she might know something at least."
Seeker would have followed after Urmdir then.
Urmdir stows his flail and shield and approaches the woman without fear. He stops right out of her reach and kneels down in front of her. "Is your ankle hurt? My brother can look at it and help you." Urmdir gaze focuses on the dagger. "You have already proven you are not ready to die. I suggest you put that away. You can answer our questions, and we will let you go - with a working ankle."
"Same here" Wisp says with obvious disappointment. "We should probably travel off the road going forward, it would seem they have our numba"
The thin woman considers this for a brief moment, and then shakes her head. "I remain loyal to The Toad to the last." Before Urmdir can make a move, she falls on her dagger.
Urmdir picks up her body and carries it back to the others.
Tank sheathes his greatsword in a ponderous motion. "I do not think Glem will return." He says sadly. "He is not a bad man, but all of his actions are driven by fear of the world around him." He nudges the moaning ogre with his foot. "What is to be done with this one?"
"I could...revive him? Do you think we could get useful information from him?" Siggur looks down at the brute unsure it would be worth the effort.
Seeker will move over and awkwardly try to pat Tank on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll catch up to him at the next town or find your own new path. As for this one, mercy may not have worked well for us last time, but I cannot recommend anything else."
"Well we better get on after the wagon as well." Saralyssa informs the others. "Whisp is on the wagon remember..." She does not say 'with the box' but makes sure the others of the group realize the potential issue with Whisp not being with them here and now.
OOC: Wisp was pulled off the wagon actually, she is with the dwarf.
(Oh, missed that... Then never mind Saralyssa's concern for her...)
Tank nods solemnly. "Your words ring true, brother. Perhaps our paths will cross again. As for the rest of you, what will be your next move?"
Urmdir motions towards the woman. "She said she remains loyal to the Toad, then killed herself." Urmdir searches her, the ogre, and the dwarf.
Investigation: 14
"Already searched these two." Saralyssa says nodding to the dwarf and ogre, nothing there." She nods to the woman. "Let me know if she has anything though."
Seeker will look move over toward Wisp, "Are you alright?"
Wisp looks up to Seeker, "Just some bruising, minor scratches really" she was hurting but she didn't want to come off weak, "This Toad inspires great loyalty..."
