After slowing the army, The knight's guild, along with their recruitsfrom the mercenaries guild have decided to stop the rogues.  After about an hours journey, the party arrives at the beach the rogue's encampment is said to be hidden on. Waves crash against the beach periodicly. The air tastes salty and moist. Stones are scattered about the beach. Two caves are in the large rock wall running most of the length of the beach.

*/Having left town at around 3 in the afternoon, It's currently 4 pm.
The sun is still fairly high in the sky. Weather is clear, with a slight
eastern wind./*

    Garreth Hallding:     It's a pity Clarc and Kai decided to stay behind and
watch after the prisoners. Hopefully they will have learned something
from them by the time we have returned

    Garreth Hallding:     Anyway, shall we find those rogues?

    Juir:     Sounds good to me.

    Heirthyr Fullthorn:     I'm up for a little payback...

    Yue Strike:     The guild is here to serve

good idea

*/Juir looks for tracks of rogues, or anything else, however cannot find
anything./*
    Juir:     I doubt they'll let us walk right in.

    Heirthyr Fullthorn:     Just a warning to you guys, last time I was here
with Kai and Clarc they were pretty nasty with whips like mine.

betraying nothing.

can be seen./*
    Juir:     Looks clear Yue... Shall we do some spelunking?

    Yue Strike:     You know I've been wary of caves.

    Yue Strike:     Can't be helped unfortunately
    Juir:     Looks good guys, let's head in

* Yue Strike keeps within 10 feet of Juir as they enter.

and the air tastes salty. Daylight shines in from outside illuminating
about 45 feet into the cave's entrance. Stones are scattered about. The

a signal in here.

    Juir:     Sigh. Light one... You don't wear that armor for show do you?
