about you, but I do not.
MARISHA: It’s such a quiet bird. I’m used to very
loud birds.
MATT: You guys gather some kindling, get back to
your three horses and your comparatively
uncomfortable riding arrangement, and continue on
for another hour on the outside of the forest
before the sun does eventually vanish. The graying
sky is getting darker and darker, the faint bits
of orange that poke through– it’s not a beautiful
sunset, you only catch the faint hues that manage
to push through the gloom, but the sky grows dark
enough to the point where you think you should set
up camp. Are you setting up camp at the edge of
the forest, on the inside of the forest, on the
outside of the forest, what’s your preference?
LIAM: Off inside, I think.
ASHLY: Yeah, I think inside as well.
MATT: Okay. You guys set up camp. Who’s keeping
first watch?
LIAM: I will.
TALIESIN: I’ll also do first watch.
LIAM: I will begin it by putting out the silver
thread around the group.
MATT: You guys want to both individually roll
perception or one aid the other? With the help action.
SAM: Help action!
LIAM: Individual.
TALIESIN: Individual.
LIAM: Because I can’t decide.
MATT: Go for it.
TALIESIN: Natural 20.
LIAM: Better than my 16.
MATT: Plus?
TALIESIN: Oh. Plus… three. 23.
MATT: All righty. As everyone’s settling in,
begins to find their initial portions of rest, you
guys have your small fire there on the edge.
Molly, you glance off deeper into the forest…
and your eyes, even at this distance, catch a
faint glimmer of matching flame. You see a faint
bit of firelight sparkling about 200 feet deeper
into the forest.
TALIESIN: There’s another… there’s another
campfire.
LIAM: How far away?
TALIESIN: 200 feet, give or take.
LIAM: Uh…
TALIESIN: Do you want to send a bird, maybe?
LIAM: I would send one of two things. One is our
little friend here, or–
TALIESIN: She’s sleeping.
LIAM: Or I… lose the peregrine and go back to
something else a little less noticeable.
TALIESIN: I’d say go ahead. I figure if they were
meaning us any harm they wouldn’t set a fire.
LIAM: And it’s dark out now, yeah?
MATT: It is dark, yeah. It’s probably pushing
10:00, 10:30.
