Tyri walked along, looking around but staying close to Ivy and Kree since they seemed to know what was happening. She got the jist that there might be an ambush/trap waiting for them but the cousins had a better eye for when things were not what they appeared to be.

Riven took up her usual position at the rear of the group, keeping a look out and trusting in the dagger hidden up in her bracer and the other strapped to her thigh.

Farora kept in rear and close to Lysander, apparently comfortable with him, her eyes alternating between scanning for threats and flicking at the sights to sate her curiosity. Boll may not be the largest city but it was still interesting to Farora.

    as they crested the  small rise,  it went  down to a slightly deeper  low... the  incline wasn't too steep , except, for   , maybe the   winter... think timbers    set like  steps  here  10 yards  up hill would  Give  carts  and  wagons a  place to rest, before  pushing up the next... the trees  covered the lowland  for a goo hundred  yards , before  a  wider  road  Opened to    the ferry area.., it was a good  2 miles away, there were   2 ships  and some  smaller sail ships and  Fishermans   rowboats...  Flags were up  to stop any  river  traffic  as the Ferry  was  pulling it as  way  across the  water  to Thur...

 Ivy  looked at the lowland  with the   'tunnel like' trees...It has to be there?  right?.... cannot be on the other side, too many troopers from The   Road Patrols?.... we would have already saw them, on this side...

 Aye. Stay calm, look around if you will. They would  expect that, do not  draw weapons unti we   enter the tree Cover

The   Man was sweating  , his eyes  wide as he looked around.  barely   holding onto the hilt of the shortsword.....this..this blade? its  rusty, will it  even work?

  I'm sure it will more, unless you meet someone with plate or chain?

 Ivy chuckled,here is a type.. when you  have to fight.. you stick the pointy  end in...then Twist as you pull it out...The Damage and pain will be greater, and//maybe even kill the person you fight.

  The  man looked miserable...

Lysander moves out to the left flank, using the woods as cover.

Farora took note of Lysander's actions and slunk to the opposite side of the road.

Seeing others ready their weapons, Lysander is wise enough to realize there is action coming.  He holds his main weapon in his left hand, and a throwing axe in his right.

 Elandra followed along using her staff as a walking stick, with her Goddess's spells at the ready, she praised Amot as she got ready for a battle.

entering the tree  tunnel, kree says...This is  were i would kill folks , cannot se  why others  would not   thing  the  same..

 Ivy  whispers,I am worried  about  shafts from those  boughs  above?.... Only a fool would just meet us....


 In front of them, halfway through the 'tunnel' stood the Fancy  Captain , his  two  big  officers and  4  people with Bludgeons  behind him, a  slight noise  as 4 more men. armed the same way came from behind them.

 Your group  will  fill out  my ship, quite nicely..we will make  coin, your  people and I..and as we  sail up the storm and them Up The  Widow.. we will allow you to leave when we reach the  new   docks  being but there...Of  course..your women?.. they may not want to leave...

 and?  you must know  we will not  joint you... how do you plan on taking us?

 My people have clubbed many a person  into  submission, armed as you?  we have no fear...

 Kree Nodded , looking at his  boots, scuffing the ground a bit, there was chuckling  from the men with clubs...
he reaches into his jerkin fished  around  for something   and Tossed it to the   Dandy...

 There are  2  things you have over looked?  The first?  we do not care if we kill you all..in fact5, I for one, will enjoy it.... the 2nd thing he pointed at the object the hargenite looked at...we are  Crimson Arrows...you.....are not.

  The Captain looked a bit  no plussed  as he   whistled  through his teeth..  4  more  men  cam running  down the  tunnel, these  were armed   with blades and shields.

 What does that tell you, of  our chances...

 That you do not have  enough  people....  He and  Ivy   reached    for and arrow  and nocked them. Pulling   back the shafts  as kree said...Run now.. you might   live a few moments longer...

 The Captain   threw the   arrow  pin back at  kree and  Yelled.. KILL THEM ALL

 Kree smiled.... Ivy  said  loudly....What he said!

 the  troops from the front  and back charged, save the Captain who stepped  back to have his crew charge in..

Lysander will attempt to stay to the left as he makes his way through the trees, making for a position flanking the captain, or until he meets resistance.  His weapons are at the ready.

Farora keeps to cover as much as possible, going for any people on the outer edges to kill quickly.

As Krwyn hangs a bit back, it is up to him to fight the men coming from the back. He brings up his bow and sends one of his infamous Flaming Arrows in the first one that comes his way.

 Elandra sees everyone move into position for the bad guys. Elandra smiles, and says," You have not faced the power of Amot, and you have taken others Peace." Elandra channels as much power from Amot as she can and uses four spell slots to attack the first 4 bad guys coming from behind to bottle them in. Each one will get a Guiding Bolt launched at them from Elandra's hand.

Riven’s eyes narrowed as she shifted into a defensive position. When the men got close enough, she sent out two of her daggers at two different assailants.

When she had noticed the others getting into position, she did much the same though staying close to Ivy. She drew her bow and nocked an arrow, waiting for one of the men to get a bit closer before letting the arrow fly.

 Elandra turns to the  4  men at the rear, she  calls  upon Amot, sending   Bolts into  each of the  attackers  at the rear, all four  are staggered..so Did  Elandra.

 Krwyn's  arrow  slams into  the  far  north ,with the flames   gathering on his jerkin.

   Riven  threw  daggers  at  two of the  front  4  charging at Kree who seemed to not care about attackers   as he drew his bow

 Tyri  waited a a breath to get a Better  Target.

 IVy was more off  to   the  north  side, He  too had  his first arrow  drawn.

 Lysander   went down the  North side,  Faroa was going  down the   south side.

 Kree's  two shots   slammed  into the  2nd from the north  henchman, the arrows  buried themselves to the fletchings.. and fellow  fell, stunned..most likely didn't even know he was dead.

 Ivy's arrows   flew, he hit the  south-middle  fellow once in the Chest..once in the  thigh...Ivy was curing his luck, but the man would be out of the fight.

Lysander knew that, if he paid attention to the immediate fight, his attention would waver and he would not be able to focus on moving silently through the brush.  The Arrows had proven themselves in battle on many occasions, and against more difficult foes than this, but he had a chance to remove the ship's captain from the field whilst he was unguarded, and this was too good to miss out on.  He moved as quickly as he could while maintaining his quietness.

With an unseen frown, Riven drew her shortsword and quickly made her way to where Kree was, slashing out at one of the men who got too close.

Farora made sure that Ivy's target was finished then went for the guy nearest to her with both daggers.

Krwyn attacks the next close attacker with his bow; if the man is too close, he switches to his longsword.

 Elandra let her bolts go then after the last fired she got dizzy, and fell to knees. She could still fight though. She would look too see how how the four attacking from behind are doing.

As soon as Lysander gets within 30 feet of the captain, he will throw his handaxe.

as soon as the Kid  heard  the men speak...he ran  up the road to the ferry.. His   scruffy dog  following him, the  troops paid the Kid no mind as he ran to the ferry   yellin...

 //get me across!..Foul Deed is being done!

 the two men  workign the   ferry its self began to  pull , even before the  Kid  reached  him, the two men  at this  in, hauled on the   rope to raise it  from the  bottom of the water, while two more  on the other end, did the same.. the  Kid sp[lashed into the   Knee deep water,, Tossing  his  dog on the raft, then hoped up  before any serpents tried to brave the  splashes, to see if  food was there.

   Lysander was almost even with the Captain of the  Hargenites..but the  Halfelf was slowly backpeddling as he watched the    fight unfold..his thoughts of a large Boiunty were starting to look....unsteady.

 Faroa ended Ivy's target, she  could see  the  other man in the first  row, slow up when he saw the large female.

 Krwyn, perhaps, because of The Sisters.. found the throat of the fellow he aimed  for..perhaps a one in twenty chance..the Impact of the arrow and the Flames cause the   Man to fall and  claw at his throat...he could only make wet gurgle sounds  as  he struggled on the  ground

 That left two of the  court on the  south side of the Tunnel passage, as  Elnadra saw them stare at her.

 Riben first dagger impacted  the  target she  had  chosen, but  the other   bounced o off his choulder  as he turned

 Tryi sent  an arrow  into a fellow, it dropped slightly, impacted on the man's left Thigh..he was slowed and angry.

 The second  for  coming from the front, the two middle people, both females, brought up Bows...

 IVY!!!

 I See Them!

 the Cousins  fired.. both shafts from both elves hit the mark and brought it down..sadly.. they Both hit the same target...

 kree looked at Ivy...Do not look at me!..I always take the one on the left...

  The answering  arrow  was loosed  by the survivor

Lysander, seeing the resolve, and focus of the captain waver, moves towards him, loosing his hand axe, hoping to incapacitate him and preparing to cut him in two with his battle axe.

 Elandra got her bearings and will use 2 spell slots to hit each of the 2 bad guys still up behind them. She said prayers to Amot as she cast her two guiding bolts.
