With Linan and Cole to assist, Halfdan was able to maneuver the warforged out of the open and into the cluster of overgrowth that was encroaching on the edge of town. Shadowed by trees and the nearby building, and with plenty of bushes and shrubs, it was fairly well concealed.

Inside the house they would find the elderly couple already seeing to Cuth's injury. His pant leg had been cut open so they could bind the deep gash in his calf - no doubt inflicted by one of the kobold's blades. He looked pale from the ordeal and blood-loss, but coherent and alert. A middle aged woman was currently off to the side soothing the children while their father was being seen to. Another man sat nearby, but he seemed to be staring off into the distance.
"Will you be able to walk?" Linan asked as she quickly joined Cuth to see to the work the older couple had done. "One of the kobold's escaped, we can't stay here." Concern was etched into her eyes, but she didn't appear to let it distract her from the situation at hand.
The woman with the children looked up in alarm at Linan's words. "We can't leave," she said. "Those things out there... You know Caleb's blind."
Off to the side the man sitting in the chair let out a chortled snort, "Don't go talking about me like I'm not here. If we need to go, we need to go," he replied. "Better than sitting here waiting for them to come back and find us here."
