Pello too suddently feels the need to hurry, though at the same time feels the need to not move too quickly through the rapidly moving water. The short wizard's heart is somewhere above his adam's apple as he makes the crossing, and he releases a sigh of relief as he too disappears into the grass.

Move P-7
Action: Pello Flarne rolled 20 using 1d20+6. hide.

Vespian will wait for Gimuld to cross and then make the Ford herself.

Erdthar makes it across the river with little effort, as he reaches the bank he pulls himself up out of the river and heads for the location of the enemy.
Milo makes it across the river and dives into the grass, Pello follows close behind. Gimuld sets out to cross the river and makes it nearly half way across. Vespian and Quindil watch the river side and prepare to cross.

Erdthar heads north at a charge, following an ellusive scent lingering in the air...

Quindil sets an arrow in his bow, and prepares to fire, in case their mysterious ambusher decides to take another shot.

Erdthar sniffs at the air and charges North. Ahead of him in the grass is a very frightened little goblin. Erdthar approaches and the goblin jumps to his feet, he tries to make a run for it as he zigs and zags, but Erdthar's large strides block the goblin's path. The goblin causes a ruckus giving everyone time to cross the river. As the party crosses the river a war band of the little goblins appear in the grass. They poke their well camouflaged heads up out of the grass and take aim on the party.
  Bolts fly from their cross bows, three bolts find their mark. Gimuld catches one of them in the right leg, Pello tries to dodge but the bolt hits him high in the left shoulder. Vespian takes the finally bolt low in her right side flank, causing her to “Weez” a bit as she breaths. The final goblin goes head on with Erdthar, but is too feeble to make any thing of it.

Milo raises his quarterstaff into the sky and then sticks it in the dirt, then in the language of Druids says:

Having spent the last few seconds silently trying (and succeeding) to not start screaming in pain or crying. Pello's self pity is slowly replaced by anger. How dare those midgets shoot at the mighty Pello Flarne? And with common crossbows as well! Well, now one mighty wizard is going to show them how you really kill opponents!

Making his way through the grass, Pello silently mumbles the arcane words "Pyro Syrte Narto Lax. Martenan Sulte Afridate," Pello stops some 10 feet from the nearest goblin and points his palm towards it as he shouts Surte!
