As TT and Robwin are laughing, Eli jumps the stream. The goblins follow. Glufs and Gralk land lightly on the east bank of the stream.
Gaatbort doesn't quite make it all the way across the stream and splashes into about sixteen inches of water. At 42 in (3'6") tall more than a third of the goblin is now in the water. "Mostly dry.", he quips.
Blaire laughing slightly at Robwin and TT fails to set her jump properly and lands squarely in the middle of the stream. Causing a splash that soaks Gaatbort from behind.
If Ikki can fly above and help anyone by holding their hands as they leap to extend their jump, he will. He's not very strong, but he might can extend their distance a little. He won't offer that to the goblins. If it is suggested to him by one of the others to help the goblins, he would agree.
As he can't see in the dark, he won't want to be in the front of the group if it's dark in the cave. "Can light *click* torch?" he asks, holding an unlit torch.
Once everyone is on the other side of the stream Wolfsong begins to feel the hunt come to him as he had countless times before he then turns to the rest of the group and speaks, "Yes light the torch but keep it low, we do not want our prey to see us coming before it too late. TT, Blaire, I want you two with Ikki as the rear guard the rest of us do not need the light as much. Robwin, Eli, keep watch over our goblin friends and make sure they do not attack us. I will join Rinn in scouting ahead, we need to be careful here we do not know what sort of traps they may have set up."
Wolfsong stands at the month of the carven, takes a deep breath, slowly lets it out, then gives a short prayer, "Let the Wilds be with us on this hunt."
Wolfsong then moves in hoping to catch up to Rinn watching for traps as he goes. Stealth18Perception20
Rinn and Wolfsong as you first cautiously and quietly [enter the cavern] you see the cave follows the stream north.
Just inside the cave mouth, a few uneven stone steps lead up to a small, dank chamber on the east side of the passage. The cave narrows to a steep fissure at the far end, and is filled with the stench of animals. Savage snarls and the sounds of rattling chains greet your ears where three wolves are chained up just inside the opening. Each wolf’s chain leads to an iron rod driven into the base of a stalagmite.
Robwin is pretty impressed with how everything has gone so far. He’s happy to be near the middle: sneaky people at the front, non-darkvision people and the torch at the back. The middle suits him fine for now.
He slowly follows Rinn and Wolfsong inside, happy to take their lead on what’s up ahead and what to try next.
Rinn rubs a bit of the fleece lining from his clothes between his fingers and casts a minor illusion of a pile of fresh meat in front of the wolves to capture their attention and perhaps quieten them a little while they try to figure out what's happening. He continues to sneak past, motioning for Wolfsong to follow.
Robwin sees what Rinn did and catches on. He follows up by casting prestidigitation to create the faint odor of delicious meat, emanating from the spot that Rinn created the illusion of meat. Then he’ll follow maybe 20-30 feet behind the two sneaky ones.

As Blaire reaches the makeshift kennel, Gaatbort says, "Use wolves. They trained."
Blaire stares at the goblin for a moment then nods.
Blaire and Gaatbort approach the wolves using the distraction of the magical visual and olfactory illusions as well as rations from the ranch as well as their knowledge of beasts.
Ikki: As you watch Blaire and Gaatbort take control of these wolves in this makeshift kennel, you notice a chimney crack on the east wall behind the wolves.
The Fissure, a narrow opening, in the east wall leads to a natural chimney that climbs 30 feet. It looks like a flickering light, torch or campfire, is just visible on the other side.
The main passage from the cave mouth climbs steeply upward, the stream plunging and splashing down its west side. In the shadows, a side passage leads west across the other side of the stream.
You both can easily tell noone without dark vision or a light is going to do well continuing north or west.
In the shadows of the ceiling to the north, you can just make out the dim shape of a rickety bridge of wood and rope crossing over the passage ahead of you. Another passage intersects this one, twenty feet above the floor.

If Robwin can use shape water to divert the flow of the water around him, as he walks calmly across the dry stream-bed, he will do that.
Otherwise, he will try to jump across, like the common folk...

Robwin's slow steady walk across the bead of the stream amuses Gaatbort and Blaire as they're hastily drying off.
TT could easily get across following with Robwin or with Ikki's aid.

Ikki tells TT he'd rather use a torch that could be thrown as opposed to turning his weapon into a target in the dark.

You both can easily tell noone without dark vision or a light is going to do well continuing north or west.
What would you like to do?
Rinn, Wolfsong,
In the shadows of the ceiling to the north, you can just make out the dim shape of a rickety bridge of wood and rope crossing over the passage ahead of you. Another passage intersects this one, twenty feet above the floor.
(( benefits of dark vision ))
Ikki approaches the chimney to get a closer look.
