[@Lugubrious] Well, there does seem to be a small issue of [@StarInaBox] not having been online in 5 days. I know that I definitely haven't heard from them recently, and I'm not sure how long I should wait, either.

Given that StarInABox knows that you're working together and relying upon one another for the current scene, it's unreasonable to have to wait any longer. Feel free to have the Hunter leave that scene behind and navigate through the remainder of the forested route to rejoin the other groups. Since it wasn't specified what exactly the Hunter saw, it's fine to assume it a mere normal enemy or something else mundane and introduce Fawful later.
