Exposing Lucien's Hideout

With their corporeal bodies transformed in small whisps of smoke, through Xander's casting of Wind Walk, the four arrived at Feather Falls within hours.

They entered the small town, which was like almost all towns in the Dalelands nowadays; cold, barren and surviveable.
The inhabitants greeted them with indifference. They did notice the increase of Gnoll, but were left alone by them.
Monstrous Humanoids always were a part of these lands, although recently they were better organized, geared, traveled in greater numbers and are accompanied by wolves.

After the four had Gathered Information from the townsfolk they headed out, again in mist form.
Able to cover great stretches of land, soon they came upon a pack of Gnoll; traveling from the woods across the plains towards the hills and mountains.

Following the unit they surmised their destination and set off at great speed.

Mere minutes later they reached the rolling hills and crossed them to spot a cavern straight ahead.

Seeing no other entrance in sight they entered the cavernous entrance and became corporeal again, turning on all their Light in the darkness.
And contrasting them with the massive, dark cave.

Arrows struck them from outside, where two Gnoll guardsman came out of hiding.
Xander and Nihlus rushed towards them to cut the attack short.. and were beset from above.

Druidic magic filled the air, summoning Storm incarnate..
