The wild haired man continues to shovel and in between incoherent weeping, you glean bits and pieces of information. "Tears them up, bits 'n' pieces, bits o' red. Like a vulture it is. Big as a horse. An' them arms, rip and shred and rip and shred till there's nuthin' left! It hides an' waits an' when you don't dig fast 'nough it comes for you! It comes for you!" He shrieks the last part as he claws desperately at a large rock in the pile, struggling to load it into the wagon. Soon the rock is streaked with red as he tears his fingers on the sharp edged stone.
Looking around the room, you can see a large opening in the cliff face. From the amount of dirt and debris you are certain that they have been carting mining detritus up from its depths. The opening is nearly 15' across and angles down slightly.

From the man's insane speech, you think you recognize what he is talking about. When you first scouted the camp nearly a week ago you were pursued by a large vulture-like undead creature, but managed to out maneuver it. At the time it had been perched in a tree watching the camp, however you did not notice it this time on your way into the camp. It could be hiding as the man says or he could be paranoid and it really is gone at the moment...
