A city of mysteries, secrets, and dark histories, Ptolus lies forever in the shadow of a towering stone spire reaching impossibly high into the sky, an enigma and reminder of evil long past. In Ptolus, the supernatural is expected and treachery lies around every corner—or is it that the supernatural lies around every corner and treachery is expected? Either way, the city of Ptolus abounds with danger, magic, intrigue, and above all, adventure.
"And I believe you mean shouldn't, not can't. Clearly, we can treat you this way. Also, I'd like to point out that we could just kill you, take your head, and leave your body for the animals and none of your friends would be able to help you, but we're not."
Kali's tone is light-hearted, but her eyes say that she really wants to carry out her threat.

Vallus nods along with Kali's words. "She's right. Next time don't look a gift horse in the mouth, and the horse is liable to be kinder. Better yet, find a new career. This one ends poorly for you."
Vallus is the only one to recognize them. People start pouring out of the trees. All of them dressed in green and wielding bows and arrows. They surround your group, ready to fire.
The cloaked avenger then says, "I told you I was being nice. Now, if you please, your valuables. After all, you are out numbered."

Vallus nods toward the Merry men now flowing out of the trees. "You're in no place to bargain, outlaw. When the arrows fly, you're as much a target as we. Call off your men and we'll let this pass."
Looking around as the men start pouring out of the trees, Kali steps forward and says "Is this the extent of your men? This? Do you not know you face a member of Clan Soy? You need to go back and bring more men before we can call this a proper fight. At least 100 more."
Standing her ground and leaning her scythe on her shoulder, she says "Don't worry, I'll wait."

Vallus hauls the man to his feet, and pulls him out in front of the group, toward the oncoming Merry Men. "Alright, who's your leader? Send them forward to parley, please."

Tony froze after the bandits starte boiling out of the trees.
Dammit; that highwayman WAS stalling! Next time we shoot and run. He thought to himself.
He studied the bandits closely, trying to determine if this was truly an overwhelming no win situation where surrender was the only practical solution, or whether they could slip or fight their way free.

Vallus hauls the man to his feet, and pulls him out in front of the group, toward the oncoming Merry Men. "Alright, who's your leader? Send them forward to parley, please."
They all point to the man you tied up earlier. "Suprise?" he asks.

How many can we see?
I can help a little if this goes down badly...
Shellin will whisper to those near him
"Shellin can try to blind as many as he can but it will only last a moment, 20 seconds at most. Do what you can after."

"That depends entirely on how smart you are. If you're smart, you tell your friends to back off and we'll let you go. If you're not, your lifespan can be measured in the minutes." Vallus looks to the others, hoping they'll back the play.

Best not to look a gift horse in the mouth then.
Shellin will begin pushing others ahead. ”You will find your boss tied to a tree one mile ahead, and if we see no one following us till then, he will be alive. Let’s hurry on then.”

Vallus groans at the noise. "Really? What beast makes that noise? I have spent too much time in Ptolus, friends, I know nothing of the forest or its sexual proclivities."

Yes, owlbears were big, and they liked to eat the Skinks, best to avoid, luckily, he was very good at not being seen, especially here in the jungle and swamp
Alas, Kali is not trained in such things as knowledges; after all, the only knowledge she needs is how to make people pee their pants. =D Can you describe what I see so that I can react appropriately?
Besides just the large tail in the underbrush, you see that it has scutes on it, like a crocodile's tail. And it's covered in the forest underbrush which may contain poison ivy. You also here the sounds of crickets chirping and frogs croaking. Not much around to make people pee their pants except for the crocodile's tail.
