| Caby will stay hidden where she is as long as she can keep eyes on the two newly arrived warforged and the one she is supposed to be watching.
Just in case, she checks to make sure her sword is lose in the scabbard... | |

Suddenly, you realize there is someone else right next to you, just this moment hiding themselves in the bushes. After a tense moment you recognize Ducats' hair! | |

| Caby whispers as quietly as she can, "Ducats! You almost scared me to death! ...But I'm glad you're here."
She continues to monitor the progress of the two warforged. | |

She continues to monitor the progress of the two warforged. Ducats whips his head sideways and for a moment is a mask of white-faced terror. He looks like he is about to scream before clapping his own hand over his mouth. After a moment, he relaxes a bit, nods, and then nervously points a finger toward the warforged. | |

| The two warforged have reached the third working on the road. You see their silhouettes rising up against the worker's lantern on the roadway. It is extremely quiet. You hear a short phrase spoken, but can't quite make out the sounds. It might be elven. The worker then puts down his tools and all three walk south on the cart path, about 20 yards past the lantern. They stand there, as though waiting for something. | |

| Going off of her hunch from the tracks they found the previous morning, Caby starts watching the sky for signs of one of the flying transports. | |

| After what seems like an interminably long time waiting for something to happen in the cold, watching the three warforged on the road, you hear a strange sound in the distance to the south. Instantly, the hair on the back of your neck stands on end.
As it gets slightly louder, Ducats recognises it as the tortured sound of a trapped air elemental, bound to a small airship. You see no sign of the telltale glowing ring, however.
Soon, you sense more than see a large shape blot out a portion of the dark sky. The lantern sitting in the road reflects off glass and metal along the bottom of something in the air. You see the vague outline of a railing at the front, and thrown over this is a dangling rope. The air vibrates with the metallic shriek of an elemental enclosed within the upper shadows of the hovering shape.
The warforged approach the rope, and begin climbing. | |

| Can we see any distinguishing features on the airship? Or get some idea of its size? | |

It seems like the bridge is on the bottom, and the small area of open deck with the railing is above and forward of that. It's extremely dark, but it seems to be about 50 feet long. | |

| We'll continue to observe the warforged as they leave, trying to take note of anything else important. When they're done/gone, we'll continue to stay hidden for another few minutes, just to make sure. | |

| After the last of the three warforged climbs over the railing, the rope is drawn up behind them. The dark shape slowly turns, reflecting brown wood or metal, brass, and glass. You hear a windy snapping sound, and it begins to move off toward the south/southwest, gradually gaining altitude.
[the image above should be interpreted as what your mind's eye builds upon the scant shadowy information your eyes actually collected.]
The lantern burns, alone, out in the road. A breeze picks up, rattling the dead leaves around your hiding place, and reminding you of the cold. Soon, it's been at least ten minutes since you saw anything move. | |

| "Well, Ducats... not really much use in waiting here, is there? Should we head back to town? Maybe we can just stay at the inn and then get to the barracks first thing in the morning before the wagon goes out."
As they're walking back to town, Caby asks, "So what happened with the two warforged you were watching? Did they just up and walk this way?" | |

IC: "We don't have a whole lot of information, yet. It sounds like there might be some elf involvement, though..." Caby tells Adolf about the events of the previous night. | |

| Adolf is more concerned now than ever, but is glad to have more information. He's also thankful for your help, and says not to worry about the fees for food and rooms tonight.
In the morning Caby and Ducats arrive out by the garrison keep just as the wagon is being hitched up outside the gate by a couple of warforged who then climb into the wagon. Soon, Lt. Albrecht Jung arrives with 4 more warforged, who also climb into the wagon, and the two outriders. He is a bit surprised to see you, and heads over to you right away, saying "good morning, I didn't expect to see you here." | |

| Caby reports the happenings of the previous night to Lt. Albrecht.
And then adds, "... I think it might be premature to assume the elves are responsible for the disappearing warforged until we have more proof. From what I understand, there is already tension between the elves and the humans in this area - it could be the result of a small faction of elves or it could be that someone is playing off of this known problem to try and push the animosity to some sort of breaking point." | |

"Should we pick up the rest of the party and return to report what we found so far to Captain Thul?" | |

| Albrecht says "hmmm.. I wonder if they said the same thing both times."
He then mounts up, invites you up onto the wagon, and instructs the warforged driver to take you to the first location in the town, the old cemetery with the broken wall.
When you arrive, Tagor is walking toward the wagon before it stops. He looks nervous. "I didn't see anything all night." The warforged is still working on the wall, and you can see what progress has been made since yesterday. | |
