Re: Sanzi
The party rouses, one by one... though none had been sleeping particularly hard out here.
"OOh, drums," Tarhoon the otter-man says, rubbing his eyes. "Is that bad?"
"Very," Petunia says. "Poorly played, inconsistent volume, very out of tune, and they're not even keeping time with each other."
"We should do some reconnaissance and see what's coming," Tarhune suggests.
Baron Arbov is now up, and listening intently. "Three of them," he says. "Why would they need three drums? And why even bother, all it did was alert us to their presence. Seems foolish. The furry one is right. We need reconnaissance. Elves are ideal for this, but we haven't any. Lysander, you look like someone who is quick and stealthy."
There are such a thing as Dwarven Scouts, Dwarves who are quick and stealthy. But they are relatively rare, a special thing among the Dwarves, and it is obvious Arbov isn't one of them. He is, when prepared for battled, as is usual for his kind: a heavily armed and armored chunk of muscle. He hurries into his mail shirt.
