[party Order] The Rescue - Page 6
The group will sleep this night taking turns at guarding the camp.
The shifts will be two and half hours each as follows: 8:00-10:30 Mud and Daphne, 10:30-1:00 Kron and Malice, 1:00-3:30 Sabina and Cyroc, 3:30-5:00 Ice and Remi. The entire party awakes at 5:00 to begin the day. The shifts are in two so that they can keep each other awake.
The guards will have weapons drawn while on guard and the people sleeping will sleep with their weapons close at hand.
We will feed the horses some oats, but leave their saddles on them in case of trouble this night. They party will sleep with the reins of their horses in hand in case of a need for quick exit. This will also help keep the horses from wandering during the night.
When Sabina settles in for her turn at sleep, she will have her sword drawn and her sling at hand, with a pouch full of smooth, flat stones on her belt.
Kron will sleep with his bow and also have it ready during sleep. His sword will also be near in case it is needed.
Ice will keep her bow and her sword ready during sleep and guard. It is likely she will want the sword if they are overrun, but the bow will be better in a fight from a distance.
Malice will have his axe, Mud his bow and arrows with his sword nearby, Remi his dagger, Cyroc his sword with club nearby, and Daphne her bow and arrows with her sword nearby.

Rescue Order party
Daphne: "My fellow warriors and friends, I think it is not wise to stay here and wait to be devoured by wolves. I think we should pick up our stuff and move to a safer place. Even if we stay and rest, we will not be able to do so since the ground is so hard and we are finding very difficult to camp here. We could move or decide to make a big fire to keep the wolves away".
Ice and Kron agree. "Let's move back to the North and camp at the edge of the woods. Then we can set out tomorrow freshly rested to continue our journey, says Kron."
Ice says: "Yes, let's we can ride double to get there quickly so that we can still get some sleep."
Ice will give Mailce a ride, Kron will give Cyroc a ride and Sabina will give Sir Remi a ride. Mud and Daphne will ride solo. They will attempt to ride without lighting a torch, but if it is necessary to light one in order to safely make the trip, then Ice will light one and have Malice hold it while she leads the party.
We will ride Ice and Daphne in the lead side by side, then Sabina, then Kron and Mud side by side.
Once the group reaches the edge of the woods, they will light one of Malice's torches and gather wood from the immediate area. They will not wander far from each other in the search because of the danger due to darkness. They will then light a fire and heat up some rations before going to sleep. They will stick with the plan for guarding the camp as laid out when they were back near Death's Mouth.

[party Order] The Rescue RPG PBP Medieval World
Since it appears we may be being watched we the group had decided to change their plans but still attempt a ruse. During the early evening hours before the night begins we will all act like we are extremely tired so those watching will be more likely to believe we truly are sleeping this night. However, we have all spent the day resting and relaxing in one way or another and believe we should be able to keep ourselves awake this night.
Beginning at 8:00 we will begin to pretend to sleep as though we were just spending a regular night. The shifts will be two and half hours each as follows: 8:00-10:30 Mud and Daphne, 10:30-1:00 Kron and Malice, 1:00-3:30 Sabina and Cyroc, 3:30-5:00 Ice and Remi. The entire party awakes at 5:00 to begin the day. The shifts are in two so that they can keep each other awake. However, here is where the ruse comes in. Those on the ground "sleeping" will actually stay awake but feign sleep. Those on watch will pretend to fall asleep themselves.
The guards will have weapons drawn while on guard and the people sleeping will sleep with their weapons close at hand.
We will feed the horses some oats, but leave their saddles on them in case of trouble this night. The party will "sleep" with the reins of their horses in hand in case of a need for quick exit. This will also help keep the horses from wandering during the night.
When Sabina settles in for her turn at "sleep", she will have her sword drawn and her sling at hand, with a pouch full of smooth, flat stones on her belt.
Kron will "sleep" with his bow and also have it ready during "sleep." His sword will also be near in case it is needed.
Ice will keep her bow and her sword ready during "sleep" and guard. It is likely she will want the sword if they are overrun, but the bow will be better in a fight from a distance.
Malice will have his axe, Mud his bow and arrows with his sword nearby, Remi his dagger, Cyroc his sword with club nearby, and Daphne her bow and arrows with her sword nearby.
*******************
Unferth had a friend check in and let us know he had to go out of town to take care of his ailing grandmother. She fell down and broke her hip. So Remi is under the GM's control.
We have not hear from Glyphfury. He hasn't been on the site since May 1. So Malice is also under the control of the GM.
Rescue Order party
Yeah, sorry. In your absence we have done a lot. We spent time hunting, bathing eating and just resting. We built a campfire and sat around eating and telling stories in the early evening to help build comraderie. We will keep the fire burning. So, while we will pretend to fall asleep, we won't remain in that state long enough for the fire to go out entirely. Whoever is on watch will "nod off" and then wake up with a start as they realize they need to add wood. Same with time to change shifts.
Basically, we want to pretend those on watch are struggling to stay awake and are drifting in and out of sleep.
Since the ones on the ground are not really sleeping either, at least one of them should discover if the guards really do fall asleep and could wake them and keep the fire burning if necessary.
[party Order] The Rescue
Ice yells to the others: "We can't fight an enemy we can't see! It is time to flee!
Sabina drags herself up on her horse and hangs on for dear life, one hand trying to stanch the flow of blood from her wound.
"I'm ready to ride! Let's get out of here!"
********************************************
Kron will pull Remi up on his horse. Cyroc will get on the back of Ice's horse and Malice will get on the back of Mud's horse. The others get on their own horses. We will ride like the wind away from the arrows.

The Scenario doesn't seem to tell me from which direction the arrows came. We want to flee the arrows. If you can tell me from which direction they came, I can better answer which way we will be heading.
Our eventual plan is to get back to the village as quickly as possible.
