Now that you're on the lookout, you can easily see the trail left by the gnolls, and presumably the kobolds they had been travelling with inside the carnival. Granted, they have a good head start on you, easily half a day or more... they must have left as soon as they exited the faeries' little "world," and been on a march ever since...<br/><br/>The path does, in fact, seem to be heading in the same direction as the orb in your mind, so there's a pretty good likelihood that you will run into them on your journey... but for now, your walk forward is peaceful and quiet. At least, up until you feel the "Snap" under your foot...<br/><br/>You leap back as the heavy, rusted bear trap snaps up through the root of the tree. To give the kobolds credit, they had hid it pretty well... knowing that the spring was strong enough and the teeth sharp enough to break through the roots, they'd actually lined it all up underneath a tangle of roots, and had done a great job of making it blend in with the surroundings.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, this means one of two things. Either the party is trapping randomly behind them on the off-chance that someone gets caught... or they know that you are on their tail.
