Tales from Talaveroth

(Eh, I will retcon anyway.)

Si'Juul steps away from the pillar and crosses his arms.

"Well, I don't know about you, but I am getting hungry..... and since we can't take this thing with us..... what say we go have ourselves a well earned meal?"

Twitch was interested in the magical runes and devices though, and even if she had no understanding of these whatsoever, the wards were fascinating. Hearing Elhanna though, Twitch, exhausted from the climb, can only echo her concern. 

Aww I though it would add a little comedy too the game the first way 😋 

Paren begins his way back down the stairs, attempting to parkor to see if it speeds him up.

Acrobatics: 7

With Paren quickly making his way down, one way or another, Si'Juul will look to Twitch and Elhanna.

"Well....I can offer to fly one of you down.......unless you don't mind waiting for me to make two trips up......."

“I don’t mind waiting.” Elhanna say, maybe a little to excitedly. 

"You don't mind waiting......here.....on top of a broken tower.....in the middle of a burnt out nest of creatures that nearly killed me?"

Si'Juul would at least attempt to get a read on Elhanna with an insight check mainly to see if her head is on straight and hasn't been too shaken up from the battle, given that, to his knowledge at least, she has limited combat experience.

Insight: 17

You suspect that she is just very excited about the thought of flying again..

”Yeah, I mean Twitch must be very tiered by now so obviously she goes first” she pauses to think “and Paren will outpace me I would suspect. Plus there are some things I would like to look closer at.”

She hopes you don’t remember her being eager to leave just an half hour ago. 

"....Okay....so that's one for flying......"

Looking to Twitch,

"What about you?"

Whatever Twitch decides, those who return to the beach find a great feast starting!  There is fresh tropical fruit, coconuts, delicious flame-broiled fish, and tasty, starchy fried roots of some sort.  In addition, the two Eveswyrms are roasting over a fire, being diligently basted by Dottle the cook and her two orc boys. (Smells like barbecued chicken!) The dwarves share some of their ale, their two children sleeping exhausted after a day of swimming and sand castling.  Captain Haba asks about the wizard, and makes plans to have the tower seacrhed in the morning.

Slithizz is looking worried, though, and asks, "Have you sssseeen the druid anywhere?  He hazzzz not returned from hizzz plant-ssseeking hike."

Si'Juul sighs and stands up after having a very filling meal of meats and fruit.

"I'll go take a look....."

Thinking to himself, 'I wonder if I should charge for such menial tasks?'

And then takes flight to start combing the entire island, minus the beach and tower areas.

(Should I roll multiple checks for each portion of the island? Depending on how big it is. Or just one check for the whole thing?)

Paren turns to go with Si'Juul, doing his best to search from the ground what he can't see from the air. 

 So, what are Elhanna and Twitch doing all this time?  Do they come back down?  Are they spending the night in the lighthouse?  What have they been up to meanwhile? So far Paren and si'Juul seem to have spent some time feasting and stuff.

Here's an island map,  The island isn't huge, but it will take a while to search in any kind of thorough way.  You will need a whole lot of perception rolls and a whole lot of time if you are just going to wander randomly.

Si'Juul will fly around the southern area, the entire southwestern most quadrant up to where the "mountain lines" are perfectly straight, basically the entire bottom left square of the map.

Saying out loud to himself, though nobody can hear from as high up as he is,

"Far too late in the night to be doing this...."

Perception:22

Twitch will happily accept a lift, and once back on the beach will gladly dig into the deliciously prepared meals. At Slizzith's remark though, she puts down some of the charred Eveswyrm, and asks: "Do we know where he was headed, and when he wanted to be back?"

Si'Juul scans the nearest part of the forest.  He sees lots of cranky monkeys armed with coconuts, but they cower under the leaves as a large creature flies overhead: the Eveswyrms probably ate a lot of monkeys. But though his search is extremely through, he sees no sign of the druid in this part of the island.

"He sssaid he wazzzz only going to be gone a couple of hourzzzz," Slithizz answers Twitch. "He wazzz going to look for interesssting tropical plantssss. I do not think he would be parted from hizzzz little treezzzz thissss long on purpossssse."

One of the dwarves says that he saw the druid headed south, when they first landed.

Si'Juul makes his way back to the group and lands. 

"Not south, checked that whole region. Bit late, you all want to stay up and search?"

Elhanna will wait for about an hour atop the tower before she realize that Si’Juul probably forgot about her. Then she will make her way down the light house while taking an other look around for valuables (spend about 30minutes doing so, she will keep an extra eye out for parchment). 

inveatigation: 15

then she will be heading back down to the beach, ALONE! Believing all the major threats having been self with.

From among the ashes elsewhere on the rooftop, you see three other spots glowing...one with transmutation magic, one with illusion, and one with enchantment.

 ooc: did she find out what it was?

 You find a couple of potions and a pair of goggles at the glowing spots.  Apart from that, you only find burned bones and burned ends of sticks and other burned things.

So, the druid does not seem to be on the southern end of the island. Do you guys go looking, or get some rest?
