“I can keep it up for an hour. After that, I’d need to cast it again. But yeah, we’d definitely need to avoid that ambush squad...”

[Is everyone ready to move on?]
Once we join up with the rest of the group I think we move on, trying to avoid the road if possible. If that isn't really possible (or there is no way to avoid being see due to a large flat plain or something) I think Rex and I go in front of the group incase we encounter anything.
Any objections from the squad?
OOC: No objections here, Fjordix will follow the plan so long as it makes logical sense.
[Makes perfect sense to me. Novot will be trying to be sneaky sneaky, and taking cues from the leaders. She's no dummy, but has no delusions about her intelligence either]

You easily skirt around the hapless group of stragglers and continue your way down the path. After about a mile, everyone but Rex notices an area where the trail winds through a gap between two outcrops. This area fits the vague description that the stragglers mentioned for the likely ambush site.
Everyone make a perception check.
Perception: 5
Perception: 3

From where you're standing, the outcrops look clear. Would you like to keep going forward?
[OOC: Begrudgingly]
Yes, Arliden doesn’t see any reason not to.

If Rex thinks their getting close to where the ambush might be, he’ll transform into the cultist he was earlier.

As you get to the outcroppings, you hear a couple pebbles falling down the sides of the rock walls. Everyone make a reflex save and then roll initiative.
[Oh dear, Dex Save: 4 and Initiative: 6]
[‘Bout right.]
