The party scurries below decks to find hiding spots, some doing better than others! It's only a moment before you hear shouts from the docks about the missing gangway, guard wolves and presumably, the missing Frost Giant.
This continues for a minute or two and then you hear a Frost Giant or maybe a couple, come down to the lower deck and quickly walk around searching. They don't seem to find anything and head back topside.
Shortly after that you feel the ship lurch, and then the sound of Giant footsteps on the decks above.
It's another couple of minutes and then the ship starts to make way.
An hour passes at sea, when a few giants start to come below decks. Has everyone stayed put in their hiding spots during this hour?
Lyngheid, you hear the Frost Giants coming down the stairs, three or four of them by the sounds of their footsteps.
You can hear them drawing closer, and then they stop and a shout rings out "Hey!"
One of the Frost Giants picks up the bag you were hiding behind and tosses it, another points at Umbriel's feet sticking out from behind the barrels he was using for cover.
The first Giant starts rattling off words in Giant at you, Lyngheid. You manage to get the gist of what he is saying "Dwarf! What are you doing on our ship?"
The second one adds something about "cook" or "meal".

Baeshra would have tried to nestle down somewhere he could take a short rest and not moved.
Similarly, Umbriel would try to melt into the shadows as much as possible, looking for any means of getting a rest in.
Lyngheid remains wedged in as far down into the ship as she can get.
Yes, the timing is just about right for that. The party tucks in and tries to remain calm and get in a short rest.
Droop's Hit Die: 26
After the Short Rest, before you hear more footsteps coming down to the below deck you are on, does anyone do anything, or stay put?
Baeshra holds still where he is, listening carefully.
Perception: 13
Umbriel whispers "If we need a quick escape, we still have the conch," and hunkers down even more.
Lyngheid keeps an ear out.
Perception- 27

The second one adds something about "cook" or "meal".
(Does he only spot Umbriel and Lyngheid so far?)
" Your ship?", Lyngheid says in Giant.
" I won this ship fair and square."
" Your trespassing."
Persuasion/Deception/Intimidation? Its all the same roll anyway- 3 = Guidance 1
If Umbriel ' Helps'-
Persuasion/Deception/Intimidation? Its all the same roll anyway- 4 = Guidance 4
( Ok, Lyngheid should just never talk ever....)
(if the Giants make an aggressive move toward Umbriel or Lyngheid, he'll cast invisibility on both him and Lyngheid to add to the confusion.)
Yes.
Lyngheid tries to speak back in Giant, but her words seem to frustrate the giant and he reaches for her.
Umbriel casts Invisibility on both himself and Lyngheid.
Once you are invisible do you stay there, or move?
Lyngheid if you try to evade the grasp of the giant, make a Dex save at advantage due to the invisiblity.
Lyngheid considers letting herself get eaten and burning the giant from the inside out but shelves that for later.
Dex: 20
Umbriel dodges out of the way as well, moving away from the rest of the group.
