Ambush!
It takes only a moment or two to realize that the arrows are goblin made, likely came from the road itself (as opposed to one side or the other) and that the horses have been dead for about a day, two at most.
While looking about the area, you also find an oilcloth map case that has had the lid torn off.
Suddenly, just as you begin to look around for a possible ambush, you see five previously-hidden, green skinned goblins who launch a hail of arrows!
Two of the arrows thump solidly into Vottr, one in the upper thigh and the other in the lower chest, leaving him reeling in pain.
The third arrow sinks deep into Brachnuss' calf.
The fourth arrow pierces Eddicus' leather, leaving a black shaft protruding from his abdomen.
The final arrow finds its mark in Caelynn, leaving a nasy gash on her upper arm.
Four of the Goblins immediately disappear back into the brush, the fifth draws a ugly-looking short sword and bolts towards Vottr.

@
PierceSG,, I am presuming you were attempting to be stealthy. The goblins have no idea where you are or, really, that you're there at all.
so, you're up.
