Grant's adventure in the Outpost will be done privately, the encounter with the Wooduke's army will be done on the boards.

Assuming you don't get into a fight with the Wooduke's army (keeping in mind you are all tired and low on spells), you may all level.  Grant, if he leveled, may have to wait until he is through his ordeal.

The first halfling to approach you says, "Did you come from the Outpost?  We were heading there when the weather turned incredibly bad and were forced to camp here."  Then after calming for a moment, "I am Lieutenant Kameron.  Who are all of you?"

He is a nearly 4 foot tall halfling.  He is wearing a breastplate with several emblems emblazoned on it, one of which you recognize as the Wooduke's flag; another is his rank.  He has a short sword and a small shield, not in his hands.  The troop behind him stands and listens, somewhat readying.

You all look miserable: wet, going on over 24 hours awake and much of that fighting and moving.

Vor'Ruk slides off the newly armored Sunder Quattron, as he lands on the ground blood squelches up his boot and leaks freely around every plate of armor.. There is clearly a maw bit mark across his chest and claw rakes across his face..


Vor'Ruk growls at him, pointing a banana thick finger in his face.. " 60 of your country men are dying right now, holding that fort so that some could live on, and YOU complain about the weather.  Mobilize, and I will lead the charge back into them!  Move! " he mounts Sunder again.. rearing the horse  massive stallion 14' in the air.. " Lets go"...


he turns to Rom'Pie and wonders " I wonder where my domain is, if they are close we could really turn this war"

The halfling lieutenant quakes, "I can't give that....type of order.  We are to remain here until the weather breaks."

You clearly see some halfling running off and spreading the news of your arrival.

The lone elf of the Outpost chose to flee.  He approaches and says to Vor'Ruk, "Your style will not serve you well with them."  It is the first time you have heard the elf speak since you got to the Outpost.  Other than halflings and five humans, he is the only of the other races that were at the Outpost to leave.

The halfling member of the foot left and is with you (covertly).  The halfling cleric of Tyrogatore remained (unless Haas ordered him to leave).

And a note, 60 left the fort; leaving about 160 there.

One of the humans that left was the Quartmaster, who was ordered to leave and take with him several items that could not fall into wug hands.  Saladien went with him to the vault and Saladien saw and probably reports that the vault was a 20x20 room filled with magic items.  The quartermaster also tells you, "Many of the spells on the outpost emanate from the vault, which is made not of wood but of steel."

Snarls and turns to Haas, " Maybe you should handle this, we need to march this army back there and save those soldiers, they are giving their lives for the wood duke.  If this was the Empire I would be there with him."

I ask him if he is the highest in command in this area.  If not we would like to speak to the person here that is in charge.

Happily turning his attention from the intimidating orc, the halfling lieutenant responds, "Captain Bermill should be coming soon, it looks like they are telling him of your arrival.  Expedition General Waxwool is in command of the entire force."

Bring us your commander. Immediately. If you attempt to delay us we will know who's side you are on.

I do not order him to leave, but I do remind him that his death here will not aid Tyrogatore's cause. "Most of us only get one death; make sure when it happens, it counts."

I make sure he is the one of the recipients of Tyro's Breath.

That's good. 

I know it's cold comfort, but if it means anything to you, Valizar was thoroughly impressed by the 72 foot curb stomp.  Tyrogatore would be pleased.  💪

Vor'Ruk paces around like a caged tiger that hasn't been fed for a week, even Rom'Pei gives him a wide birth.  He simple glares at the halflings leaving a trail of blood behind him, his green orcish blood, black wyrm and wug blood as well.
