Old Woman!
Garvis doesn't take kindly to being ordered around, and he lets Lestadt know about it.
"Ya? Well? I don't remember Pelltar putting you in charge. So if I was you, I'd step aside." The cranky older driver moves his team around in a wide circle with a loud warning to anyone still inside the coach.
"Last stop before returning to Restonford! Hop out now if you're going to!""
The old woman rights herself, brushing the leaves and twigs off her dark cloak. Despite her less than wholesome looks, she seems genuinely grateful for the help.
She starts picking items up off the ground and placing them carefully back into her little wheelbarrow that Redgrave turns upright for her. The items consist mostly of sprigs, bark, and leaves from several different plants, along with a few acorns and pinecones as well.
"Thank ya kindly young fellas. I suppose it was a good thing you came by when you did."
When Zahra approaches, she smiles at the lovely younger woman.
"I been getting these dizzy spells fer a while now. I think I musta laid down and fell asleep this time. Don't seem like nothings missin though, so I think we should be good. Thank ya kindly young miss. Say, you look familiar. Do you know anyone named Luna?"
Carling and Vorpal remain in the forest on the edge of the road, seeing no sign of ambush or any other nefarious activity nearby. The old woman seems incredibly calm for someone in her precarious situation. That demeanor changes instantly when Zap starts casting a spell at her. Before he gets out the third syllable, she bends down to pick up a stone and a switch, tossing the first at the gnome and moving towards him waving her thin stick menacingly.
"OH NO YOU DONT MISTER! YOU TAKE ME FOR SOME FOOL WHO DOESNT KNOW ABOUT MAGIC? I WONT HAVE YOU TURNING ME INTO ANYTHING AGAINST MY WILL!!!" Despite her creaky old stance and the ridiculous odds, she seems very serious about stopping the spellcaster before he gets his spell off.
Give me a d20 Dex check to see if Zap can avoid being hit with her sticks and stones, disrupting the spell.
