Come down, come down sweet reverence
Jynn listened as everyone shared their ideas, trying to formulate a plan despite being well out of her depth. Her kind were solo hunters, not pack hunters and having been a loner most of her life she'd had very little practice.
"Ok, I think adding some stakes at the base on the beach of the sound couldn't hurt. Hopefully, the fall will be enough to break bones so I don't think we need to worry much about doing damage to the muscles and tendons while chasing." The beasts were so massive it would take time to work through fur and hide and muscle down to where they could do real damage. She'd prefer the cliffs of the sounds fjords do the major work.
"I don't think we need to bother with a net. These creatures are so massive it would take a lot of time to craft something they couldn't just bat aside. We'll need something to help incentivize the mammoths to run. I think the fire is a good idea. Just the sight of it should incite nervousness and once we have them running the pitch can be abandoned." There was enough snow she wasn't too worried about a brush fire starting. Jynn nodded. "I agree, those who have aerial companions should utilize them. I think it will take a number of approaches to get things going."
"Alright, let's head to the sound and get the stakes set up. Can you two (Gimli & Aurorion) stay at the base of the sound? You can get a head start on slaying the beast and give the rest of us time to get down there." That was the bad thing about driving prey off a cliff. There was the climb down and the kill and sounds of distress was likely to attract scavengers. "The rest of us will work to drive the Tall Hairys toward the cliff and separate out one of the smaller ones if we can. Mæva, Apollinaris and myself can handle the torches. Sound good?"
