"Cozy is a word for it," Vaz shrugged in response. "Eleon snores louder than an ogre so we-" He got quieted down by a punch to the shoulder from Eleon. "Ow ow! Hey! You know it's true, though!"
Seeing the two of you get rather curious about the contents of the box caused Eleon and Vaz to become uneasy, but Vantas quickly cleared up his throat to call attention back to himself. "The contents of the box are our...Main product, yes. Let's leave it at that. We'd rather not get too deep into the details of it, if that's okay with you." Regardless, you soon found yourselves getting ready to set up a trap, Vantas insisted the wagon was used as bait, though the horse was hidden a little off into the forest by Vaz, according to Vantas, the Veelasar wouldn't risk damaging the cargo they were trying to steal, since it was very frail, so they could use that to their advantage. You got to get close to the box and touch it, while you were setting things up, even covered in cloth, as it was...Whatever was inside felt cold to the touch...
Regardless, soon, you were all in position for your ambush. Hidden all around the clearing, while you two, as orcs, preferred to keep yourselves on the floor, the elves took to the threes above. Vaz would shoot the first arrow and, once he did, it would be your time to strike.
Zorc AGI - 10,5 -> 10
Mulk AGI - 4, 3 -> 4
Mulk stood out a fair bit, but he was hidden enough that he wouldn't get spotted right away...Probably.
Soon, the so-called Veelasar appeared...And they looked far from just common thieves...
As Vantas said there would, there was only six of them, but they seemed rather heavily armed. All of them were covered from head to toe in shimmering green armor that hid their faces, equipped with both a large glaive and a short sword by their side. Spotting the box, they all stopped dead in their tracks, the leader at the head of them raising his fist to the ones behind him. They stared silently at the covered up box for a moment before the leader spread his arms out wide, a signal to which the other soldiers nodded, starting to slowly spread out, drawing their spears as they seemed to be looking for you. Before any of them could get far, however, an arrow zipped out from Vaz's location, striking their leader straight in the chest as he was returning his arms from the spread out position, the leader landed on the ground, groaning loudly in pain while all the other ones seemed disoriented for a few seconds, before they could regroup, Vantas jumped from the trees, landing on top of one of the soldiers with his katana and slashing across one of the Veelasar's shoulders. Eleon slipped out from the tree himself and, from his hands, shot out what appeared to a large shard of ice at one of the soldiers, the shard lodged itself in the soldier's throat, coming out through the other side as a single, choking gasp came out of his helmet, before he slowly toppled backwards.
Taking his chances, Mulk charged for the closest one and gave him a good whack with his hammer, being too surprised to properly defend themselves, the attacks connected. (Edit requested by Mel herself.) Zorc, seeing this entire situation and finding it...Rather shifty, decided to change his focus, instead turning his two guns on Eleon and firing, the two bullets erupted forth from his guns and headed straight for Eleon whose eyes shot open wide before he tried to roll out of the way, one of the bullets nicking him in the shoulder, while the other went off into the distance.
