Khan can only shrug at Ghee's initial compliant, understanding little of it. At the reminder, however, the Orange Grung cannot help but nod sagely in agreement. "Teacher Ghee and Saros and B'Leep. Those ones you mend. If still feel too bad, then drink Ghee potion. But after, we move for mansion. We do so quiet if can. If see Goblin stragglers in shadows, maybe we yet enact trick. But main focus is we move swiftly. No argue." Khan states firmly, taking the executive position.
"And you." She points to Darrik. "More useful as bear. Difficult to hide, but not worry. You stay that way for now, if not already gonna to. Best in case more goblins to maul."

The group deliberates a little and comes to the conclusion that time is not on their side. Ang insists on patching up at least the worst wounds on some of her companions and the group relents. The purple grung pulls out her healer's kit and begins to perform her expertise. If anyone needs to top up, Ghee still offers some magical potions.
While the group waits for treatment to be administrated, they plan. Khan takes over the discussion after a few minutes and begins dictating the next steps. After they are patched up, they will try to proceed as silently as possible towards the manor. Darrik, and any other volunteers, will follow from a distance as to minimize the chances the vanguard will be spotted. If they come across other goblins, the party may still try to fool them into invading the manor and creating a distraction.
The party (probably) agrees/sneezes but makes sure they are all feeling a bit better before proceeding...
(@Grimnir: Please go ahead and roll your heals.)

Ang gets her healer kits and starts helping each person in the group, tending to their wounds. (-5 doses) Ang: 10 Khan: 12 Ghee: 14 Saros: 10 Bleep: 12
Khan leads Ang, Bleep, and Ghee (as well as Blip) out of the mining district. They move swiftly and quietly for the most part, though Ghee seems to be audibly huffing as he goes. It takes him some time to even realize he is doing it. Thankfully, the vanguard group does not come across any groups of goblins on the path connecting the mining district to the manor up the hill.
Bearrik and Saros stay back, following from a distance. Although they are not particularly taking precautions to hide their movement, they are moving through the same path as the vanguard, which seems mostly safe. They are following the other group from a safe distance of about 90 feet.
Once the vanguard begins to see the wall surrounding Weirding's estate, from a distance, they slow down their pace even more. They can already see several dead goblins and an ogre by the gate, with many others dead Batiri on the bridge and along the walls. Strangely, no body floats on the water of the moat. The group can also see some smoke rising from within a wooded area several yards from the manor. Noticing it a bit too late, Ghee makes some unwelcome noises as he takes in the scene. The group hears a "Hmm..." coming from the wooded area, as well as the ruffle of dead leaves on the ground.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Seeing the presumed fruits of her labor littering the ground brought a smug smile to the Grung face. Though her enjoyment was to be cut short. If Khan hadn't already been among the trees before for Ghee's sake, then she certainly took to them now upon hearing the noise. If training taught the Grung anything is that people hardly ever looked up enough. Even so, she hugged the shadows of the foliage above, and trusted her hunting party to do the same.
Ghee, on the other hand, she hoped would improv his way out of trouble as tended to be the way.
The grungs dash for the trees as soon as they hear the noise. They keep a close eye on the approaching creature from their hidden spots. The rustle came from some ways away, so it takes a few seconds for the noise producer to show his face. When it finally does, the grungs and Ghee see a hairy creature that is at least 5 feet taller than what they were expecting. A muscular bugbear, wearing multi-layered patchwork armor and a hefty antler helmet strides in confidently. He carries a large wooden club that has been outfitted with sharp metal scrap to resemble a morningstar. He also sports a Batiri war mask, though he carries it as a shield instead of a facial ornament. There is one more detail about him that Khan, Ang, and Bleep notice: from his belt hang three severed grung heads, two fresh and one more decayed. (You may roll perception checks.)
He spots Ghee and approaches, speaking in broken common: "You. Villager. How you pass Batiri? How you here, alone?" He looks pensive for a split second before, with a guttural sound, screams something in the Goblin tongue, directing his voice toward the source of the smoke:
@Bleep & @Ghee:
"To me! To me!"
(@Shadow & @MuggsHill: How far behind Ghee are Bearrik and Saros at this moment?)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Unless bade by Ghee or B'Leep to do otherwise within the next few seconds, the strange goblin's screaming is more than enough to have her loading an Urchin bullet ready to let death rain to try and quickly silence the creature. Not that she had much hope of that happening...
As her focuses is narrowing however, she pauses despite herself, seeing the heads and giving in to curiosity to squint at them with growing dread..
Still gripping his spear, Ghee readies himself for the appearance of more goblins and more combat.
"How am ah here? Guess yer wee friends weren't too quick on tha uptake. Ah'm no one tae go quietly. How are ya all here? How'd ya get so far and why are ye no tearing tha manor?"
