"I suggest we finish our task as quickly as possible and return to the wagons. If that fellow over there wishes to parley, he can come do it when we're all together. And if he has mischief in mind, then the sooner we return the better. In fact, perhaps one of you two gentlemen would care to go and warn Master Peddywinkle about the watcher in the woods straight away?"

Looks up at the Half Elf's words, unaware of the figure. but nods none the less.

Drezden does not respond and Dallion only nods, but neither volunteer for the task. So the three of them finish gathering up the kindling and return to camp. The figure makes no move from their current position, but continues watching them from afar.
By now, Dell and Rafferty have finished unhitching and patting down the horses and the former is now engaged in his favorite activity, pestering Taska and Jaxle with questions about their much more exciting lives. Rafferty, meanwhile, starts preparing the rations while Peddywinkle patiently waits for the fire to be built.

Drezden nods agreement having nothing to add thus his silence.

Malavar makes his way through the camp to inform Peddywinkle of the situation. "Master Peddywinkle, it may interest you to know that we have company. While we were gathering kindling, we noticed a fellow watching our camp from the treeline over there. Humanoid and man-sized, but too far away to make out any details. Is it your wish that we should go and ascertain his intentions?"

Drezden "I can go scout if you'd like."

Peddywinkle strokes his mustache as he thinks this over. "Do you believe this person might be a threat of some kind? If so, I give you leave to investigate. But I'd prefer at least two of you remain here. I don't want to leave us completely unguarded."

Dallion nods at his employer's words "I will stay with you sir."

Drezden "I can't say for sure so far the being has only been observing us could be harmless hard to say less someone goes and greets them."

"Out here? Anything could be a threat," Malavar replies to Peddywinkle. "Well, since I have a mount of my own, I'll nip over there and see what he wants. Care to come with me Drezden? There's space enough on Onyx for both of us - just hang on and don't fall off."

Drezden gives Peddywinkle a look that says essentially 'you've got to be kidding'. "Nah I'd rather not ride double."

Drezden and Malavar Malavar mounts Onyx and starts off toward the figure at a slow pace, so the short-legged Drezden can keep up. The figure in the treeline continues watching, but once the pair are within a hundred yards, it starts to retreat back into the woods The two do get a better look at the figure, however. He's male, and appears human. His skin is a snowy pale and he wears an eye patch over one eye. He's dressed in furs and hides, but they look more for modesty reasons than to protect from the cold.
Jaxle and Dallion The others remain at camp, and soon Dell is back at asking the adventurers questions about themselves. "So where are you from?" he asks the three. "I was born in Luskan, and haven't seen too much beyond there. I have been to Waterdeep, though. Not very long, just to drop off some cargo, but it was amazing from what little I saw. I've been to Neverwinter lots of times, too. But I've never traveled this far north before. I wonder what Targos is like? Do you think it snows everyday?"

Dallion looks at the young human and decided to humor the lad. "I am from Evereska, will its been my home for the last 110 years before then I was a child and I was at home with my parents on the isle of Evermeet. I have been over the heartlands on behave of my kin."

Drezden waves off the humanoid as it moves away from the two scouts "Bah don't look like he means us any harm guess we can go back to the others." the dwarf says to Malavar. Though he waits for a reply/decision from Malavar before deciding himself to either turn back or try something else.

"Well met, stranger!" Malavar calls out as the pale man begins to retreat into the forest. "We noticed you watching us before, while we were foraging for kindling. Is there something you want?"
