Operation 1: Front Porch

[Jack Grey]

[Steven Trustrum]

Everyone else notices Jack moving off towards the beasts' corpses.

[how are you moving up, Jack? Cautiously? And is anyone else going or are they staying put?]

[Jack Grey]

Jack pauses and scans the horizon for enemies. After a minute, he walks toward the corpse of the huge wolf, and kneels down beside it. He seems unconcerned about any hidden enemies, apparently satisfied that Sergio's excellent marksmanship has eliminated all of the wolves.

[Ulzgoroth]

Alexander will move toward the wolves as well, but will turn his essence sense on the 'bodies' from as far away as he can to see whether they're really inert.

[Steven Trustrum]

You sense some residual Taint bleeding off into the environment, but otherwise nothing from the Wolves. As for some of your companions, well ... that's a different story.

[Okay, some of the team seems ready to go. Is there anything else anyone wants to do before heading off on your planned route?]

You have no further incidents on the long trek to the station until, finally, the scouts spot it in the distance and report as much.

The magician settles into the snow. "I've got some invocations that might help. Some limited illusion, or a bit of mental tampering, are probably the best I've got."

Alexander looks nervously in the direction of the base. "If they've got a practitioner of their own around, though, he might see anything I cast."

Does Alexander think a water elemental might be able to manipulate the snow and ice around here?
