The next morning came uneventfully.  The group was easily able to make it to the merchant's wagons without much notice, and had a quick chat with the merchant himself.  There would be two wagons and the carriage, moving single file with the carriage in the rear.  Aside from the merchant and his wife, there would only be the drivers and four bodyguards in the caravan, at least as far as the public would know.  The road they were to take looked mostly open, with a forest to the east for most of the journey.  The road would bend sharply after passing by a few rocky areas, about four hours into the trip, and it seemed that this would be the most likely spot for an ambush - there was a fairly decent cluster of pins in the map at that location, as well.  After they were finished, it was easy enough to climb aboard the wagons without drawing much attention, and all they'd have to do was wait for the caravan to head off.<br/><br/>((Please post where you're going to be while traveling with the caravan.  If you're hiding in one of the wagons, post which one - there's room for two people in each of them.  If you're going to be traveling some other way, or plan on doing something other than strictly stay with the caravan (i.e. run ahead to scout), let me know.))
