His search for weapon markings turns up two things.Several marks from large bladed weapons, most likely axes are cut into the wagon's sides, and the barrels as well. Secondly, there are numerous claw marks along the wagon as well, deep-grouved sets of 4 claws.RinaldoTrying not to interfere in Troi's search, Rinaldo looks about elsewhere in the area. Finding a smaller group of tracks, Felix follows what looks to be one set of booted tracks that begic at the Wagon, deep boot prints as if someone jumped from the Wagon, landing heavily and then ran North. A second muddled set intercepted these not 30 feet from the wagon and obliterated the tracks in the area where the two meet.Most likely, a Wagoneer jumped, running and was taken down like a deer by a Wolf and then held in that location while others came.Felix Felix looks for any signs of relevance regarding things more esoteric, moves over to where Rinaldo stands, noting with a sickening feeling that the ground there is very dark...blood.In fact, he gets the sinking feeling that the scene had a deliberate look to it, as if some Ritual was performed.Velbrik focuses his Spell upoon hearing Felix' observations, noting a distinct, though faint aura of Necromancy.  ZoeSitting upon her horse, Zoe gains a vantage point not shared by her companions. The Paladin looks about and her eyes settle upon a black feathered arrow embebbded in the trunk of a tree at the edge of the treeline. Te trajectory would make sense if someone shot from behind the Wagon at the drivers.</blockquote>
