Oraphina Weatherbee:
Oraphina smiles at Anarkun. "It's a convenient meeting of fates - you need help, and you found us, because we're super helpful. Pretty great, right?"
Anarkun nods and returns Oraphina's smile.
"Strangers too nice, Anarkun fears for strangers going to canyon."

The night in the wilderness has passed without incident, Shadow was able to detect the movement of some Gnolls about half a mile from the group and heading away; it seems they did not catch wind of the group.
Anarkun escorts the group for several hours before having to stop to rest, still not completely recovered from the blood loss; however he manages to describe in enough detail the route the group must take to reach their destination by their desired time, without him.

2:00pm
As the group nears their destination, a large mesa can be made out from a distance, it stands an impressive one hundred fifty feet tall and stretches for a great distance, with a sheer cliff face, heavily weathered by time; large chunks of the wall, over time, have broken off leaving countless ledges and grooves ideal for hand and footholds, the base of the cliff is littered with rocks and boulders some as large as small houses.
Following Anarkun's directions has led the group to an area where the grass grows tall, reaching almost six feet high, providing a decent amount of cover as the group advances and observes the cliff.
From the group's vantage point no guards can be seen upon the top of the mesa, but the top of the mesa is covered in tall grass as well, like Anarkun said, and could be concealing lookouts.
