Ceridwen was completely surprised by how obedient the bard was to her command, immediately stopping her music and wandering off to talk to the other half of the group who had been walking somewhat separately from herself, the cleric and the paladin. This was promising, the bard seemed easy to manipulate and they were good at pretty much [i]everything[/i] if she could completely indoctrinate her she would have no issues skirting around town guard and the like. But all that for another day, she couldn't let anyone else know about this, to them it should have seemed like she stopped of her own volition. 

The party stopped in their tracks, some simply because everyone else had and others because they were scouting out the dangers that may lie ahead. Ceridwen believed the rest of the way to be safe, but she had no reason to believe that they would have their own schemes at hand so she decided to let them amuse themselves for the time being. Two rangers would be stealthy and effective if they got along and didn't start bickering.

Then the bard interjected herself into the equation saying that the town would never turn away a bard. That was true, but they'd also never turn away the kings appointed. Besides, Ceridwen wasn't sure that it was hostile townsfolk that they wanted to scout out, rather than the possibility of dead ones.

"If I may interject myself, as much as sending two stealthy members on ahead sounds like a plan what if you get captured? Then we'd just be down two people against the same number of Orcs. There are strength in numbers and if possible I'd like to keep our number the same," she said, giving off a half hearted smile.
