Athelstan, no one answers your greeting, and your voice merely echoes across the clearing. As you ride, blank stares from human and goblin corpses meet your eyes. You find the bodies of six humans, and a dozen goblins.
Biz, after the siege at Sukiskyn, you recognize the markings of the three tribes: the crimson armor of the Redblades, the fur pelts of the Wolfskulls, and the snake tattoos of the Vipers.
The bodies have been rotting for a week, and you struggle to hold on to your breakfast as you survey the scene.
Tret, you and Soldath investigate the chimneys. Other than a few birds, some rodents, and a bat, all of which fly and scurry away, the chimneys are deserted.
Renardius, it's been a week and one rainstorm since the attack, so you can discern no footprints. You do, however, notice trails of debris coming from the east, and then heading due north.
Some of the bodies have been picked at by carrion birds. Nothing of any value remains.
Actions?
Get thee to the dungeon. Get thee to the dungeon forthwith. Pass not the barbican. Amass not 200 GP.
