The Valley of Ends

„That didn‘t went as planed.“ 

I will report all i saw and heard to the others.

Salys listens carefully, "So, do we attack then? Do we want to wait until dark to see if we get an advantage, or daylight?"

"I suggest we go and attack now. If we wait that giant might head back to his camp where there might be even more giants. I do not relish the idea of attacking a camp of giants and however many bugbears there might be. We can always attempt to back track his progress to try and find his camp after they are all dead." Reginald says.

[OOC: Lord, I need to pay way more attention or get more sleep.]

"Well if we wait till right before dawn we will get them at hopefully their most unprepared and vulnerable. I also suggest we attack form the opposite or at least a different side that Onyx left from." Resfaen suggests.

Wrong game jonpawl

(It's already morning) 

What races did i see and how was the equipment of the guards?

„I can attack from 150 ft away, but i don‘t have any speacial attacks beside that.“

"If we want to have me send in some of my summoned creatures to attack, then come in to hit them while they are distracted, I would need to be much closer..." Gotch says with a glance to the others.

(Mix of humans, dwarves, elves, a teiling here and there made up the guards. Gnomes and humans made up the dismantling crew)

(Expedition team are unknwns) 

Are we doing a hit and run or full assault?

(Unsure. We are suppose to clean the place out, so not sure what a hit and run gets us, unless we plan to cut down their numbers with several attacks, pulling back between. I don't think we have a safe fall-back place though, so likely it will just mean they start hunting us. Full-on attack might be our best bet, but not sure if we are going up against too big of odds for that or not.)

„I was hoping to just scare them away, but they saw me, so i don‘t think that will possibly now. If we get separated for some reason, we regroup where we camped last night.“

(I return the fireball necklace to Fingolin btw)

"Yes, he did request a full clear of said group from the ruins. I hope when we start our assault a location will become apparent where we can funnel the attackers into. That way we do not get surrounded and we can handle a few of the attackers at a time with the possibility of groping up the others for our spell casters. Onyx, by chance did you see a spot such as that?" Resfaen asks.

Laughing quietly Resfaen adds, "Too bad we have not seen any larger animals around that we can coerce into attacking the camp as well. A few rampaging dinosaurs adding confusion would help immensely."

The site is mostly open with minor hide spots here and there with the terrain but nothing they can really funnel people unless you want to try the collapsed building in the center with four entrances.

Layout

Ruins are a long rectangular area centered a partly collapsed central building/tomb. The surrounding area is mostly clear expect for rows of pillars and  low walls that they're breaking  down and moving into tented areas. The tent are are just covering for the ruins pieces they've dismantled. It'll take less then a minute to cover one corner to the next on the short side, just over a minute on the long side.

Salys listens to the description and attempts to work out his best ideas for a strategy, "I think perhaps our best idea is the one we started with, wait until nightfall, hit them with the summons to weaken them, and then charge in to try and break their spirit and make them flee. Perhaps even attack from behind while they're fighting or even the ones sleeping. Thoughts?"

„I love fighting in the dark, let‘s do that.“

"Works for me." Gotch agrees.

Anyone want to do anything while waiting for nightfall?

Onyx would keep an eye on the ruins/guards.

Would need stealth to sty hidden while keeping  eye on them and perception to see what you see

Salys would attempt to rest, making sure he isn't tired for the attack.

Wish me luck 🤞: Stealth 15 &Perception 10
