    Serenity nodded vehemently.
    "I'd rather ford where I'm just going to get soaked then pass where I could slip and fall into high waters carrying others with me" she offered, compromising with herself on the pros and cons.

    It is a DC 8 Athletics to climb the cliff to the top of the waterfall.
    If you do decide to cross on the log it is DC 10 Acrobatics, those that are not going first or last have advantage from the rope.

    Toru ties the rope around himself and treads across. "If it'll take me, surely it'll be fine for y'all."

    Zale ties the near end of the rope to a tree or large rock before Toru crosses the log.

    "Everyone help hold the rope. If the big guy falls in we'll need to keep him from going downstream."

    Once Toru is across and ties off the far end of the rope, Zale will let the others go first. After they have all gone, he ties the near end of the rope around his waste and crosses the log while the others pull the rope in as he goes.

    Toru makes it across the log and secures the rope on the other side.

    Serenity, Alara, and Hadwyn slip a few times but manage to hold on and make it across safely.

    Lleu makes it easily, not even needing the rope.

    Zale secures himself to the end of the rope and makes his way across. Shortly after passing the half way point he slips and falls into the water. He is sucked under and his shoulder slams against a rock beneath the surface. The others are quick to pull him up.

    Alara takes a look at the injury. "Your shoulder is dislocated, this is going to hurt, brace yourself." She resets the bone in the socket and fashions a sling with a belt.

    Toru exclaims as Zale falls in, and immediately starts walking backwards and pulling on the rope. When Zale is out, Toru looks at the shoulder and says, "That's a bad one all right. But I'm glad you weren't swept away downstream. Come, let's get you dried off." A campfire springs into existence in a spot by the rocks.

    Toru debates casting a healing spell on Zale but he waffles. "If we were back in town I'd say you should just go see Nioso, but ah well. Let me know if you want me to try my hand at it - I've only really used it for minor burns and cuts before."

    After coming up with the foolproof plan, Zale is of course the fool that almost ruins the plan. He slips off the log after others had passed so gracefully. He fell into the water and was barely pulled out before drowning, but not before dislocating his shoulder. Alara puts it back in place with an excruciating pop. He whimpers little as he sits by the fire to dry off,

    "Thanks, everyone. Let's get going. I'll manage ok for now. It's still warm out, so my clothes will dry in a few minutes."

    Serenity tries to help out as she can, although she isn't very good at pulling people up. Nevertheless, she sighs in relief releasing the breath she hadn't known she was holding when Zale was finally alright. Kinda.

    She was a bit concerned but still nodded.

    You continue on climbing to the top of a hill between watershed valleys and break for lunch at the top where there is a nice view.
    Down at bottom of the next valley is a stream, crossing it will not be too much trouble but you see there is a rather young bear tearing at an old rotting stump on the other side.

    Zale enjoys the lunch break even though there isn't much food left. He looks down into the valley, happy to see that this stream should be easier to cross. He then sees the young bear.

    "Well, should we kill that bear for food, knowing its mother might be close, or do we give it a wide berth?"

    "I mean, I'm big, but even I don't have aspirations to eat an entire bear. Seems a bit of a shame if we waste it. But if we promised to put its hide to good use, maybe. Mom seems sure to be around, though," Toru concludes, looking around warily. "If we fight the one, we should be ready to fight both."

    Since the others don't seem interested in killing the bear cub, Zale stays on the ridge, enjoying his lunch and giving the bear a wide berth.

    If you decide to take a short rest for lunch Alara can apply a poultice to Zale's shoulder.

    I don't actually need a short rest but Zale will get better this way, and traveling with a fourth of the group suffering from disadvantage and wounded isn't ideal.

    Zale watches carefully while Alara applies the poultice. He is impressed with her skill, since this is not something he knows how to do.

    "Thank you."

    Once they have eaten and rested, he gets up with the others to continue the journey, avoiding the bear or whichever direction it had gone.

    "Now that we had some practice yesterday, maybe our tarp-and-rope setup will work better this time, too." Toru sounds determined to make something work so that he stays dry. He helps Serenity look for a place that'd be suitable.

    His clothes having dried on the rest of the walk this afternoon, Zale isn't keen on getting wet again. He agrees with setting up camp, although he's not much help with his injured arm. He trusts the others get tarp right, hoping it holds up better than last night.

    While you continue forward looking for a good place to set up camp Toru finds the entrance to a cave that was partially hidden by ferns.

    A cave seems like a better place to sleep than under a sagging tarp... as long as it isn't already occupied.

    "Thanks. Let's see if it's drier in there." Toru pokes his nose in but is stymied a bit by the darkness. He tinkers briefly with his dagger and it shines a faint light, but mostly just lights up himself, so he puts it away again.

    Zale finds evidence of some smaller wildlife heading into the cave, rodents and such, nothing big.

    ---

    Serenity does not find anything suspicious about the fern placement, they are growing all over the place.

    ---

    Inside there is roughly 12 feet (3.5 meters) in diameter. In the center is a circle of stones with some ashes, at least a year old, probably more.

    In the back there is an opening that leads deeper underground.

    Satisfied that there is no imminent danger in this cave, Zale starts to get set up for the night, helping cook any small game they've caught today, and making a place to sleep as comfortable as possible.

    "The opening there is possibly concerning, but there are no tracks or signs it has been used, so I say we leave it alone, sleep here for the night, and move on at first light."

    Zale takes his turn at watch for the night and keeps alert for danger whenever he is awake.

    "That would probably be for the best. It hardly has to do with our mission anyway- we could check it out on our way back, when we don't have a time limit anymore" Serenity proposed.

    She helped Zale set up the cooking and the place to sleep, and took the third watch. It made sense for the more spell-oriented member of the group to take the last one.
