Cold Truths (part 1: The Missing Duke)

[taitzu52]

Uri looks visibly nervous. He is used to enemies of flesh and blood, and this business is a bit much for the ragged woodsman. Nonetheless, he draws his bow and follows Tyler to the building.

 

[Ferrix]

Gerard smirks at the mention of an evil retreating, probably just luring us in. He snaps up his lance and his shield, readying himself for the inevitable, and follows Tyler.

 

[Lazlow]

Swipe readies his sling, intending to remain far enough away from whatever made the tracks to be able to use it. He'll follow the tracks as silently as possible.

You all make your way around the building, meeting on the far side by the track in the new-fallen snow.

"These are like nothing i've ever seen..." woden quitly remarks. The track head off in a northerly direction, over a small hillock.

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Without faltering Tyler trudges on through the snow. He has a deternimed look on his face.

 

[taitzu52]

Rather frustrated with the lack of initiative from the holy men in the group encountering the undead, Uri heads north to inspect the tracks in the snow.

Woden follows behind and tries to track the creatures and figure out what they might be.

The track are easy enough to follow, leading directly away from the building that you we just standing by, heading almost due north over a small hill. The tracks themselves are unfamiliar though, the seem humanish but there are some odd variations that are like nothing any of you has ever seen before.

As you crest the small hill, you are looking down into a smallish valley with a very cold-looking streamlet running throught it. the tracks lead directly to it.

 

[Krug]

"Hmm maybe they know they're being followed," says Woden. He pats Skaris' fur and they continue towards the streamlet. "Be on your guard," he says, looking around, searching for possible ambushers.

 

[Mimic]

"Anyone else think that this is a bad idea?" Aleran mutters as he follows close by.
