Amazing Race

Outside the Mausoleum daylight greeted our adventurers.  Blinking in the bright light they looked around and took account of those that remained alive.  The sting of loosing blossom had recently faded away only to be replaced with the loss of Pas.  They mulled around in a moment of silence.  For they knew that his great sacrifice is the sole reason for their existence at this moment.  They must not let his name go in vain.  They must follow through on their plans to rid this property of all it's vermin.
     Opposite of the Mausoleum was the entrance to the estates hedge maze.  It's twelve foot walls ran an extensive length of the property.  It's two outer edges met with a cliff face that ended in a thousand foot drop.  There was no possible way around, they had to navigate the maze. 
     "We must keep to the right," Phae suggested, "I read it once in a children's book." 
     The rest agreed and they began to make their way through the maze.  Dragging two large platinum gates, Groth brought up the rear.  The foliage blended together masterfully making some of the turns very difficult to see.  From the center of the maze sounds of rustling and creatures drifted out. 
     Phae cast message. Fox began to change shape.  He hopped up and took flight.  From below he appeared to be a cloud.  He relayed what he saw through Phae.
     "There is a building in the center," he said, "I see Dire Wolves and Werewolves, not sure how many."  The group readied themselves in positions against the walls of the maze.
     "There is room outside the wall, I will lead you out."
     Fox directed the group through a short section of maze to an outside wall.  Phae enlarged Groth who tossed the party members over along with the two large gates.  As the Green giant climbed over one of the wolf sentries noticed.  Howling and barking erupted from the center of the maze.
     "Uh-oh, looks like we have trouble up ahead."  Fox messaged to Phae.
