    His face softens a bit.

    Vaeron gratefully steps back and allows Warryn to take the stage after his amazing failure of a lie.

    "Well, perfect then. 4 mercenaries is close enough to 5, and if need be one of us can hide in the cart."

    He gives the grumpy drow a sour look. "Thankyou for your time, sir."

    Then he turns to leave.

    Nera nodded at the drow, then left as well.

    "I do not trust this man one bit," he whispered to his companions as he left, being as silent as possible and making sure they were as far away from him as possible.

    "Never mind trusting him, I just don't like him," Vaeron said, almost sulking.

    "Let's just go talk to the elf... J?... so we can get out of here."

    "Perhaps, but for the moment, we should begin the mission. We will have plenty of time to think about what's wrong while we travel."

    Warryn finds J to get back the equipment the group left behind, "Ah, there you are, my friend. We have good news for you. We will be your escort during the delivery. There is only one caveat: we may have to wait for longer than usual once we have made the delivery before heading back to town."

    "Get in your armor then and get in my wagon, the goblin's camp is a couple miles away."
    He waits until everyone gets in the wagon and he drives off. You make it a mile out until an hour comes whizzing out of nowhere and hits the elf driving the wagon in the head. He falls down dead, and his blood slowly drips off of the wagon as the horses come to a stop. Several archerers appear out of the bushes on both sides of you, a man with a scar and two bastard swords on his back directs his attention towards you.
    "Take off your armor and weapons and valuables, and step away from the wagon and we might let you live."
    ((Now would be the time for everyone to roll for initiative. Remember it is 1d20 + your dex mod + half level(rounded Down). There are 7 archerers on each side of you and there is the scarred man on the left side of you. Speed won't matter here, since it is a small place unless you guys choose to book it.))

    Warryn quickly snatches his orb from his pocket and begins concentrating on a spell. Centered on the scarred man in the back, shadowy illusions of assailants crop up, threatening those nearby.

    Nera took a step forward, just five feet, it was all he needed. He looked at the screaming archers, and raised his fists in defiance, before closing his eyes.

    "The Storm will take you," he declared.

    Not bothering to open his eyes, his fists flew in all directions, putting the confused archers out of their misery.

    I move one square forward and will use Five Storms, my At-Will Power, against the 3 archers in front of the Scarred Man. I believe the archer right in front of Nera is flanked. It is VS their reflex.

    Archer rolls: (1d20+16)[17] (1d20+16)[20] (1d20+16)[21]

    Peren walks up to the scarred man and in a very calm tone, he says "I think that you should surrender now." He then executes a graceful arc of his sword, which confounds and slows the scarred man.

    Vaeron takes a smooth step towards a group of archers, and channels psionic energy into his greatspear. He pivots on one foot and stabs at each of them in one fluid movement.

    Spoiler
    Show

    Move one square southwest (to E9 on Dan2's map), and use Demoralizing Strike augment 2 (close burst 1, should hit the three south-westernmost archers), vs AC.

    Archer 1: (1d20+17)[19]
    Archer 2: (1d20+17)[19]
    Archer 3: (1d20+17)[19]

    On a hit, they take (1d10+8)[13] damage, and take a penalty of 5 to all defenses until my EONT.

    EDIT: Wow, I rolled three 2s? Hope their AC is low..

    Vaeron hits all of them, and their minds reel at his power. The archers who's turn is now flee.
    Now it is the Scarred Man's turn. He yells to his men fleeing:
    "Get back here! If I ever see your faces in camp, I will kill you!"

    The Monk closed his eyes, and followed his instincts to navigate through the corpses, ignoring everything else. When he opened his eyes again, he was next to the Scarred Man.

    "Make peace with your gods, fool," Nera suggested, his fist flying out in order to connect with the Scarred Man's face, breaking his jaw.

    Were this blow to connect, his knee would become a blur, and hit the man in the ribs, making a nasty cracking noise.

    I move next to the Scarred Man (on the right square), then attack normally:

    (1d20+16)[33] for (1d10+7)[12] damage.

    If this attack connects, I use Centered Flurry of Blows in addition, and the Scarred Man takes 6 extra damage.

    You can see a goblin encampment far up the road, about a mile away. You look around you and see that the archers had many nice things. The Scarred Man himself seems to have quite a hefty coin pouch.

    Vaeron moved over to the scarred man lying on the ground. He bent down to rummage through his possessions.

    "Well, yes, we already figured there's something more going on here. Pity you couldn't give us more details. We should have tried to take him alive."

    He placed the coin pouch to one side, then searched more thoroughly, hoping to find something that might provide them with more information about the man or who he was working for. Or some nice magic items.

    It reads:
    'Dear Bandit Leader,
    Can you please stop killing people on the road to the goblin camp? It's quite hard to find people willing to go. I'll be sending a group of adventurers down that today, please take the 50 platinum enclosed as an incentive to not kill the adventurers.
    -Baron Ashenstep'
    A smaller note flutters off of the document. Upon inspection it is a map to the Bandit's hideout. It has a note on it detailing the exact way to get into the Bandit's Special Loot Vault.

    The Warforged Cat begins to rub its head on Vaeron's leg, wanting to be pet.
