Nexendia thanks Eran for his assistance in dismounting her horse. She then listens to what Oleg and Svetlana have to say and when there's a lull in the conversation, Nex will whisper, "I do remember a story about an Oleg who was a former Restovian guardsman who petitioned and was granted clearance to turn an old border fort into a trading outpost. I agree that we should do what we can to help."
She then sends Scarf to do a bit of scouting. She can't give him specific orders yet but he's smart enough to scout the area for anything that looks like it might be dangerous to him or his master.
[OoC: Scarf's skills: Fly +11, Perception +6, Stealth +11. Empathic link has a range of 1 mile. He will not venture out of that radius but does stay high enough in the air that his stealth, distance and size should make it difficult for anyone to shoot him thinking he's a meal.]
Unfortunately, even at a distance of 1 mile up in the sky, Scarf is unable to see much of anything except green grasses and the hints of a treeline in the far distance to the Southwest.

For all her bluster, she is still used to her opinions and ideas being cast aside as unworthy of a moment's notice. To be asked for them is... odd. Glancing again at the door, she listens to what the outpost's keepers have to say. "If their camp is more than a day's travel from here, then they are already on the road. There is a chance we could catch them before they get here. But they are likely to be more wary in the wilderness. Better to ambush them once inside the fort. If we can get the gates shut behind them, it will temporarily cut off any who enter from reserves left outside, and being inside the fort will restrict which direction they can come at us from."
Oleg nods thoughtfully, agreeing to the idea of ambushing them, but not liking the idea of making the ambush in their home, where damage could be done and Svetlana could get hurt. But these 'explorers' seem to know their business, so he holds his tongue...for now.

Eran waits for the conversation to finish:
- We should discuss the team strategy. If I had enough time to change my prepared spells then I can enlarge Valdi and Vidar. I cloud knock them to unconscious, blinded and stunned, but it's a risky task for me and I can't save myselft with magical armor if I enlarge you.
Oleg blinks a few times. Finger-wigglers. "How long would it take you to, erm...reset your spells?"
