Subject Turn

Ok Kevin is due back tonight so I will wait until tomorrow to write a turn.

Any one else want to add anything before then or just wait and see how they respond to Ran's statements?

Subject Turn

Nothing from Salix. He's just standing quietly, regarding the strangers, looking carefully for anything that might give him a clue about who they are or what they are up to.

Subject Turn

Surin is too stunned by suddenly turning Scottish to do anything. He's waiting for his pants to turn into a kilt.

Ran replies "I am Ran-Ell, and these are my companions," he gestures to the group.

"We are traveling home after a difficult journey and are scouting out a camp site. We see you have chosen a great spot to set your camp and were hoping to share a fire if you please. If not, we would be happy to continue further on our path and set our own camp later." The man in chain obviously struggles with the language. The man in plate next to him says something in their language and Kendrick's face brightens and he takes a few steps forward.

?You wish to make camp with us? Oh wonderful. We are on quest to find object of great worth for our employer but are lost. We feed you, mayhap you help us?? He looks back over his shoulder talking to his compatriots. He seems happy with what he has heard..(Sense Motive DC18, Bel 21, Cai 21, Fal 20, Harp 21, Kal 11, Ran 13, Salix 23, Surin 22) ?I think that maybe we should make camp and help these fellows.? Ran says and starts his horse forward. Salix hisses at him. ?Wait, there is something not quite right here? he whispers. Ran looks around at his party members. The two rangers are nodding their heads as are Harp, Surin and Fal. Kal looks at the others and says ?What is wrong with you? They pose no threat.? and spurs his horse forward a bit.

Kendrick and his companions, seeing what seems like agreement on the part of the party start forward a few steps as well.

OODM: What next? The sense motive result was amazing. Those who made the check do not think that Kendrick is lying per se, but he is not telling the whole truth.

New map attached.

Subject Parley

"Keep your ground, and stay alert!" Salix says quietly enough to not be heard outside the party, but firmly enough that they should know he means it. His hand goes reflexively to the symbol on his armor, now hidden by his cloak.

"Thank you, but we have food enough to maintain ourselves," Salix calls out to the man who spoke. "What is it you seek and how is it you think we may be of help to you?" (Diplomacy here, if it applies.)
