"Shouting just says 'I m here', doesn't it?" queries Jerry.

Artanis thinks for a few moments and then offers his assessment. "We need to keep each entrance covered so it can't escape. I can travel without any problems through the woods and circle all the way to the north side of the house and enter the house from the west. Pyros can probably come with me if he wants. The rest of you move up to the barn and then cover the east entrance. I'll give a signal, such as a crow caw when I'm ready to move in. If we surprise it, no matter who it is or how it begs, kill it, and anything with it. Any other ideas or suggestions?"

"I my spells hurt it, a lot, perhaps if I went invsible and moved somewhere close, I could strike the creature before it saw me." Mira suggests, still hefting the Crossbow. "I'm going to leave my pack hidden, I can move faster that way." She adds.

"I'll leave mine with yours." Pyros adds.

"I definitely want to go with Sir Woodsman. Oh and I definitely recommend being invisible... it was AMAZINGLY fun!"

Artanis smiles and nods. He liked Mira's suggestion. "Good idea, Mira. Take the east entrance, while Pyros and I sneak around to the west entrance. Does anyone else have preparations to make?"

I have a protection spell that could help ward off evil somewhat... Merrick offers. Or i could make someone else invisible...

Elsa readies her mace and shield. I could enchant some sling stones for you, Pyros... the halfling offers.

Hiding her pack under a pile of branches Mira adjusts both blades and prepares to cast her spell, "Merrick do you have magic missiles? If you do, take the opposite corner, go invisible, and Jerry can cover you. Cross...? What spells do you have ready?" She asks as she checks the crossbow.

Oh.. umm.. yes, i have some force missiles ready... umm...I'll stay near you, though. I'm not much use if it gets close... Merrick replies somewhat nervously.

"Thats a better idea, you go invisible with me, we blast it and I take it on hand to hand if i have to. Jerry can you do what you can from the middle with Cross?" Mira smiles sweetly. "I'm not that great hand to hand, but I am better than nothing at all."

"Sure," replies Jerry. She gives Merrick a look that says, 'I don't want to lose you.'

Pyros vibrates with excitement waiting for magis stones!

Artanis waits for the others to finalize their preparations. He will not be drawing his weapons until he reaches the edge of the woods.

Once she has stored her somewhere safe Mira heads to the left with Merrick as discussed.
"Go invisible, ok." She asks quietly.

"Invisible just out of view, Invisible.
Like a pane of glass he could see right through.
Invisible... she sings softly.

Once she vanishes she takes Merricks hand and leads him through the Forest, her fingers wrapped around his.
