On the other hand, how many people does it really take to chase after a deranged boat captain? Renardius investigates the ruined lumber camp.
Renardius, you find the remains of goblins, humans, and one dwarf. The goblins appear to be from the Viper and the Redblade tribes. Some of the humans appear to be simple loggers and woodsmen. One, however, has a manacle tattoo and manacle mark on his wrist. You recognize him as one of the group who attacked you on the river.
Sadly, you also recognize the dwarf as your friend Bombar. While he died fighting, his weapon is missing. Whoever survived this raid took everything of value with them. You find no footprints, or any clear sign of where the attackers came from, or went.

Biz, Tret and Athelstan follow Kalanos into the woods. Hearing hoofbeats behind him, the boat captain stops, turns and fires an arrow. It whizzes past your heads, sinking into a tree behind you. "Back, I say," he yells, then turns tail and keeps running.
Biz, do you wish to cast a sleep spell? If so, then you'll need to bring your mount to a halt.
Get thee to the dungeon. Get thee to the dungeon forthwith. Pass not the barbican. Amass not 200 GP.
