Trailyn begins to walk forward towards the children to make sure they are not hurt.

@Trailyn @Ted

The girl speaks up,

I don't know what it looks like. All I've heard is the monsters terrible howls. In the panic I grabbed my little brother Thorn and ran outside. I didn't have time to get my baby brother Walter. Please you have to go help him. I am to scared to go back in.

@Athllorantier
The little boy is successfully charmed.

“Little boy, please tell us what you were about to say” AA quietly whispers in a soothing tone

Brendan appears distressed.

@Athllorantier

The boy peeks his head out from behind his sister. He mumbles

I wasn't sayin anything mister.

“You lead the way, little boy. Show us where this monster resides, Mukk will take care of it”

Mukk tries to avoid the child but looks excited to finally kill something

Mukk makes his way to the house and lifts brendan to look into the window

Ted shakes his head at the rest of his party.

“What are you idiots doing?? Have you ne’er read a book in your lives?? Why would these two children just be standing in the road? They’re part of the plot to lure in adventurers of course!”

Ted pulls out his dagger and points it at the littler girl.

“Boy, spill the beans or your sister hear will get hurt! Tell us everything you know. And I mean everything.”

“Hey, calm down, Ted. I’ve already charmed this little fello’, he doesn’t know anything”

Brendan looks suspiciously through the window.

sighs to herself at the mention of burning down a brick house.

Howls, body with claw marks? Children alive with no one around? A boy named Thorn? What kind of storybook have we walked into.

walks nearer the children

holding her hand out towards them fade encourages the two to move away from the buildings Hey, come over with me and let them look for Walter for now. Let’s wait out of the way, so they can check more quickly.

“Quickly, there is still a child inside. We must rescue Walter before it is too late.”
Trailyn knocks an arrow but begins to slowly and quietly approach the building.

“Dosha would be able to check if these children are evil unfortunately I cannot detect something inside a building, Dosha will not let you go alone.”
Catches up to Trailyn and walks beside him to the building door and listens intently inside.

wonders why Trailyn is intending to enter a building with a bow but holds her tongue

Hello Thorn, I’m Fade. And what’s your name? fade says turning to the girl

Can you tell us where your parents are? Or who lives out here?
fade studies the children closely (insight?) while appearing inviting and calm

AA changes form to Hunter Jilsen, in an attempt to seem as non-threatening as possible and walks quietly in the background

Follows AA

Let’s stay outside Mukk. This looks like a trap.

To clarify - Trailyn is not entering the house, he is approaching and then going to round the house to see if he can see anything through windows or openings.
