Eliana looks to Henry and nods. "Wasn't the front door to that place open?" She asks. "Did you, by any chance, just peak inside?" Chantilly shakes her head: " Do you want me to?" - she asks excitedly.

(OOC: It was around 5PM when the party arrived at the castle, so I'd guess it's around 6-7PM by now.)

"Hm, actually it might be safer to just try to...well, pretend we're Children and ask for hospitality." Henry voices his own opinion, even though he doesn't seem to like the idea of hiding his own identity again "We hide in the stables, when we go out to look for information people might ask questions. We are guests at the Lodge, we have a good reason to wander around."

"I've been saying to just knock on that door.. for hours!" - Chantilly says with a pout. - "What will we say then?"

"Well, since we still have our disguises..." Henry grimaces a bit at the thought of having to pass as one of the Children "...I mean, I don't believe they are keeping here all the treasures they have stolen. Looks more like a place where the Children stop to rest, resupply and then move on towards their next destination. So we could tell them exactly that: we are from the Castle, we need a place to stay for a couple days before moving on; hopefully we discovered where to go next by that time." Henry shrugs, trying to get his point across "Keep it simple, keep it close to the truth. Avoid anything that could make us of any real interest for whoever is in charge here."

Chantilly nods: "Sounds good to me. Are we sure we don't want to rest not even a little bit in those stables though? I still am a bit tired..and we may not have another chance, after we enter the lodge."

"If they buy that we are cultists, then we should be able to get the rest we need inside the lodge," Eliana says.

"But if they don't..?" - she asks hesitantly.

"We run." Henry shrugs and chuckles at the answer he gives to Chantilly, trying to ease her nerves "And given I'm the slowest of you all, you should truly be on board with that." the squire then sighs, trying to be a bit more serious "I mean, we run the risk of being discovered whatever we choose to do. But what we're here to do is find where to go next - and do so quickly, we don't want that elf we met at the Castle to find us here. We go inside the Lodge now, there's less chance we're going to raise suspicion when we poke our noses around later."

Chantilly gently taps her right feet on the ground, thinking things over: "Well, if you all agree on this plan I guess it's okay.. It's just that it's eerily similar to our other plans, and.. Well, we know how they ended up.." - she says, before being interrupted by a sudden yawn. - "Oh, well. Let's go then, can't wait to see what's inside this lodge." - and with that she starts hopping toward the building.

The party returns to the lodge. They find the front door is still hanging a bit ajar, and it overall looks like it did the last time they checked; no changes.

Eliana felt uneasy about how the door was slightly ajar. There could be an army waiting for them inside for all that she knew. Though, she was going to let Chantilly look inside at the very least so they knew what they could possibly be dealing with.

Chantilly peeks behind the open door, to see if someone's there.

Peeking inside, Chantilly sees a small chamber with pegs and benches for cloaks and boots. A set of rusty spears rest in one corner, held in the claw of a small drake statue. To the east is a guard post, currently unmanned. There's a door across the room, closed. There does not appear to be anyone around.

"Huh... There doesn't seem to be anyone here. I wonder if something happened?" - she says, to no one in particular, before entering the building and walking toward the guard post.
