Edit:
Before making camp, the expedition decide to dispose of the carrion. The corpse is dismembered to ensure that nothing rises.
Glaive spreads his arms and vanishes as a cloud of darkness spreads from where he stood. Doral incants a spell causing his outline to fade and vanish as well. You hear the crunch of twigs moving away from camp as Doral heads towards the sounds. Midian and Whisper focus their energies on protective magics for themselves. Kraken moves upslope towards the eerie sounds, trying to keep up with the sound of Doral's footsteps. Raysuldra moves out to the edge of the fire and peers outward into the darkness.
The sounds continue to close in, sounding more and more like a large number of creatures. You can hear hooting, shrill shrieks, and a faint trilling sound intermingled with it. A few seconds later the first shapes charge through the darkness. The creatures are long, scaley, and their slitted eyes reflect yellow in the light of the campfire. Their heads dart rapidly back and forth at the sight of the camp and their chests rise and fall with rapid breathing. You hear the sound of more pounding footsteps approaching, signalling the arrival of more beasts. The first two continue to race forward after a moments hesitation, angling towards the east side of the camp.
Kraken
[SBLOCK]
You recognize the beasts as a bipedal reptile. The creatures run in large groups and are omnivorous. You can't recall them ever approaching, or attacking, anyone from your village before.

Doral, Glaive
[SBLOCK]
The creatures are reptiles, about 8 feet long with slender bodies. Their necks and tail make up 2/3rds of their bodies. The darting eyes and head at the end of its long neck reminds you of a goose. They hold their arms close to their bodies, which end in three large claws.
