The last two boars fall to the ground, utterly lifeless, their injuries at last too great even for the rage that fueled them.
The dairy itself is quiet now, although the smell of rotting milk and rotting meat is almost overwhelming. The boars must have been drawn in by the cheese, as they had obviously been feasting on the wheels that are aging on heavy wooden shelves. Three corpses -- two women and a man -- lie at various points around the room. The man looks as if he were somewhat elderly, and doesn't otherwise match the description of the Weathersmith brothers.
The boars seemed to have preferred eating the cheese to meat, and since their presence kept the smaller predators away, the bodies don't seem to have been interfered with after death. A cursory examination suggests the women died to multiple stab wounds, while the man was crushed. The dairy and the surrounding houses and pastures are otherwise quiet, excepting the scavenging ravens and coyotes that quickly withdraw whenever you approach.
[sblock=OOC]Some skill rolls would be helpful here. I suggest at minimum Heal to find out more about the bodies and Survival to look for any tracks. Any other rolls you think might apply, please feel free.[/sblock]
