<span class="bbc_u"><strong>In the carriage</strong></span><br/><br/><em>Bestial senses and considerable experience in the wilds allert the Ranger. Hearing a light tapping on the rough and a muffle. He knows something has gone horribly amiss. He is certain he heard a quick snarl and the escape of air from a pounced victim.[i/]<br/><br/>The carriage picks up some speed but seems to be heading erratically toward the bridge.<br/><br/><em>Noticing the lack of humming and the carriages less than smooth approach. The Inquisitor and "sister", await communciation from the driver. Though instinct tells them something is wrong.<em><br/><br/>The horses whiney both in front and behind the carriage.<br/><br/><em>The gunslinger and fighter, are only aware that the carriage ride is getting bumpier. as these last few moments.</em><br/><br/>A powerful howl is heard in the distance...though it's not far off as the Ranger and Inquisitor could tell, within 300 yards or less. The carriage is within 100 yards of the bridge but seems to be pulling toward the edge of the road. Not a steep cliff persay, but a ten foot dropp into an active river. On the opposite side of the carriage is the forrest line road going ten feet above the roof of the vehicle.<br/></em></em></em>
