I will get a turn out tonight. I am working my ass off getting everything done in the office before I leave tonight.

I apologize for the sparseness of my correspondence this week. Our family is in Oregon trying to buy some land for us to move to, and now we're preparing to go to Wyoming to attend my grandfather's funeral.

As the party watches the shimmer in the light leave the edges of the tree trunks, the shimmering moves a few feet towards the party in a sort of undulating movement. The party can see the trees behind the shimmering, wavering form, but it looks like a mist has been hung in the air. All of a sudden the shimmering stops and like a hand wiping steam from a mirror, the shimmering falls from the air.
OODM: Now what. I need actions

Same as previously stated. Allistair turns Surin invisible. (You haven't had Allistair do that yet, have you?) Having one of us also invisible should even the odds a little bit, if this thing ends up being hostile.
Also, Allistair will shout, "Hello?" in Common, Elvish, and Draconian, and see if he gets a response.
Allistair also tells his familiar to go to the ground and slither forward while hiding in the grass, seeing if he can smell anything. Allistair will then communicate with Syssyphys using the Whisper spell like he will with Surin.
