The Valley of Ends

Onyx would do the same, trying to catch some rest before they march off in the early evening.

Resfaen would be enjoying the downtime a little bit, but still a little antsy to get things done. And she would definitely be with Gotch as much as possible to watch him train his new pets.

Fingolin doesn't need a lot of time to rest, so he goes busking for a bit on a busier street, see if he can get a crowd going.

Performance: 18

The people in this city seem to be more cheery from the get go than Cardinal and gather around to watch the performance on other hand, they seem a little poorer than Cardinal's residents, netting him about 18sp. 

(Bringing the dire wolves? If not, they can be left at stables for time bring)

The party for most part takes more leisure activities as they wait for night to come. Depart from the city as the sun touches the horizon. The party sees the spiraling towering rock formation in the distance and takes about an hour to get to the Rock. Standing at the base of the formation, just starting at the mismatch trees as the sun closer down. Onyx and Fingolin are the first to see the ghastly figures before pointing them out the party, wispy figures moving back and forth, in and out of the tree lines in distance.

„Can you give me 10 minutes? I would like to test something. I would like to know if those ghosts can see past my camouflage.“ Onyx whispers to the rest of the group. „Once i return i can cast some shadowmagic to hide our presence. Hopefully we can sneak past them.“

If no one speaks out, i would like to try and sneak up to a small group of ghosts, but make sure to stay at least 31 or more ft away. I would use the darkness to hide myself and make sure to be silent. I would try to get a look at the ghosts before returning to the group.

sneak: 21
advantage:12
perception:11

The ghosts seems to no movements or reaction, maintain their wandering, roaming and rcicling of the trees. As Onyx approaches, he sees more phantoms fades into sight. 

While i do not have the knowledge to distinguish the different ghosts, i will try to get a good look at them and then describe them to the rest of the group when i return.

Even up close, Onyx can only see general shapes of the ghosts, they look like an invisible beings that passes through a veil of smoke. Onyx can see faint outlines enough to tell general shape and races but nothing much less. 

I return and tell my findings to the group. Did i spot or hear any natural wildlife?

“Do you want to try and sneak inside, or do you have any other idea? My spell will make us hard to detect for an hour, but i am not sure how it will work on Ghosts.“

It's eeriely quiet hear the ghosts, less the animals are not making nose but rather the sounds is damped like if you cover your ears. 

"We came here to check it out..." Gotch says with a shrug.  "Unless anyone has a better idea, I guess we try to move in to have a closer look."

(Any sort of check Gotch can do to see if he knows anything about these ghosts?)

Gotch has not even heard of things of this situation, either a ghost is visible while transparent or invisible, not this state of in between or semi-transparent. 

(Bringing the untrained wolves with you?)

Salys will cautiously approach, keeping watch behind them.

The ghosts for lack of better terms make no movement or even signs they notice Salys apporach. 

Resfaen grips her battleaxe even tighter as she follows the group approaching the ghosts, restraining herself from attacking.

Anyone give me either survival or investigation checks. 

Gotch investigation: 19

Survival: 9 

(still waiting on answer for Dire Wolves)

Gotch is first to notice it after watching the ghosts move around. They seem to coming from same general direction. The party carefully make their way deeper in the forest, moving where the ghosts seems to be wandering from. After a trek deeper into the forest until they comes across what looks like a steamrolled area of trees, many trees seems to have bee ripped, smashed or just uprooted expect for a lone tree which strangely has a near identical tree laying out of the trunk on the ground. Every so often another ghost will appear near the tree with it's back to the tree.

Can i tell what kind of tree it is? Nature 17 - 1 (i used the wrong modifier)
