"Okay, hold on and I'll make us a portal back to the cave."
This is a slightly complicated process - first she takes a loop of twine out of her belt pouch and casts on it, then she pulls a longer rope out of the resulting portal and uses it to climb up a nearby tree, where she ties one end to a low branch before sliding down the rope to the ground again. She then pulls a wooden peg out of the twine portal and uses it to tack the rope to the ground before settling in to cast, and after another minute, a portal appears between the tree and the rope, showing firelit dimness.
She peers into the portal and swears, holding up one hand to warn her companion not to go through it. "Tigerfolk, and not a tribe I recognize. They don't usually go in caves, especially if there are traps - they must have a mage with them - I'd guess they're hiding from something? Probably not a good idea to suddenly appear in the middle of them."
