Junia reaches for her sling as she steps back into the open doorway.

If she sees a chance to hit the 'pede before it can get away, she'll sling a bullet at it.

Herman slings his spade up out of the recently dug hole, shifting his bulk over the side along with it. He stands, clapping the dirt from his hands and flashes her his ear-to-ear grin.

"Right you are, miss," he says, "I'll see to it straight away. The accomodations for our current guest are almost done, as you can see." He gestures at the hole. "I'll just pop on over and fetch our new tenant now. I've got a nice oak box ready and waiting for him in the shed."

He scoops his round-topped hat off the ground, slapping it against his trousers to knock loose the dust. "Mind if I borrow a cart to go and fetch him?"

Sayla smiles but it is not a warm expression on her face.

"Yes of course, there are carts near the stables," she gestures to the far side of the temple, where a small attached structure is visible. Sayla shifts her gaze to the ground before her and the grave's occupant.

"May the Grey Maiden's ravens guide you swiftly to the Dustlands, and may no gesture, arcane or divine, call your soul from Eternal Rest." She holds a glass figure before her, a small owl, the symbol of her faith. A faint blue glow fills the air around her, and as her aura spreads, Herman feels a sense of peace and serenity wash over him as well. The fresh mound of earth covering the grave begins to churn. Small, white-petaled flowers begin to sprout, and coat the dirt.

Terrick is about thirty feet in front of the merchant caravan he's been hired to scout for, when the ranger notices the large pile of droppings in the trail before them, causing him to slow his march.

Ferun, the spice merchant from Griffonport, and boss of the caravan looks over, noting Terrik's change of pace.

"Is everything alright? Its almost nightfall, and I was hoping to arrive in Brighton by nightfall."

Ferun's companion, a paranoid looking Faramaaran cracks his knuckles loudly.

The entire trip the man has said nothing.

Terrick knows the group is only an hour from reaching their destination but, any delays would cause them to arrive after the sun has set.

Junia loads her sling bullet and fires, but it hits the cage bar and ricochets toward her at a dangerous speed!

Junia narrowly avoids the speeding bullet, which crashes into the mahogany door behind her embedding itself into the wood. The centipede hisses, and turns its attention toward the intruder. It slithers toward the cage, moving through the bars, and winding toward Junia.

Striking out with a bite the creature...

...and misses her.

Two more centipedes burst from the hay and begin moving toward her.

Junia drops her sling and draws her sap. She strikes the centipede hard on the head, knocking it unconscious.

The other centipedes attack!

The bite from the 'pede stings, but not too badly. The other pede attacks but strikes its head on the bars as it lunges.

"Nothing to worry about sir but I reccomend you go inside the wagon for a while, we will be at Brighton before sunset as promised."

Terik tries to sound confident but these droppings make him worry a bit. He looks around getting his bow ready.

Terrik hears a howling in the distance. It is a terrible, soul-chilling howl that sounds like no wolf or beast the ranger has ever heard. The two merchants cover their ears, Farun has tears welling in his eyes.
