[Taocow PBEM] [Everyone sans Ted] Book 3 - Chapter X - The Quest For Louissa

[Aaron Clausen]

OOC: Okay, everybody but Ted has now rejoined. Time for a new chapter.

[Sir Prrcvyel]
Sir Prrcyvel parks the hovervehicle at the edge of the field. "Hoy,
friends! Have you got a scent of a trail?"
[/Sir Prrcyvel]

[Justin]
"We think so." Justin says. "It looks she made, or I guess maybe was
lead, into that woodland there."
[/Justin]

[Sir Prrcyvel]
Sir Prrcyvel nods. "Ah, the Kingswood. Well, it's a thick bit of
trees, but not especially large. Vehicle won't do us any good. We'll
join you on foot."
[/Sir Prrcyvel]

OOC: I'm going to presume Oz stays with the group.

[GM]
The company, with Alex and Vesper out front, Justin behind them, and
Oz, Sir Prrcyvel and the three guards behind, make their way through
the woods. Here and there Alex spots a footprint in a soft spot in the
ground. The path does seem to lead towards the woods.

When they reach the stream that runs along the edge of, there are more
clear tracks here. Two people have recently walked this way. Across
the stream they find a narrow but well-marked deer trail that seems to
lead into the thick of the woods. After a few minutes they find
another stream. Here they see clear signs that someone had been here.
There is still some sewer muck floating in a shallow pool. On the
other side of the stream leaves and bracken have been heavily
disturbed.

But now the problem. The path splits in three. One path keeps heading
north, the other east along the stream bank, and the third northwest,
also following the stream bank.
[/GM]

[Justin]
"There are eight of us." Justin says. "I suggest we split into three
teams. We keep in radio contact. What does everyone think? And which
directions do you all want to go?"
[/Justin]
