Yurian tells you that with the local problems, the more distant farms have begun lighting a fire every morning to let the village know they're ok, like an all-clear sign used by banks.[/sblock]"Not so much a wonder, lad," Elder Tropolic said. "This is our home. Just under 200 souls have poured everything we have into this isle, and we're damned well not going t' leave it without a fight. But we can't fight... this madness.""As for Lt. Rayn's prowess," Yurian said, "it wasn't lack of skill or inhuman strength. Rayn tried to knock Mart out, bring him in alive, but the boy just wouldn't stop attacking. He went for the throat, and even a boy can do damage if he claws hard enough. Rayn said Mart practically skewered himself, and at first Rayn was trying all he could not to kill him. In the end, there was no choice. Mart wouldn't stop."Elder Tropolic nodded. "Aye, Yurian'd know. He trained Rayn himself. One o' the best swordsmen on this isle, or the others around.""As for the bodies, we didn't notice any wounds other than from the fight. Once we knew we were bringing in outside help, though, we set them aside in case you wanted to look at them. They're in the cellar of Gwenn Aleanaca, the village's midwife and herbalist."[sblock=Nature Skill]No sweat; Nature does factor in, but there's places where Dungeoneering may help as well later on. Maybe. The trick with this adventure was, I built it with saftey valves so that many different kinds of skills can shine, and I just pull in the bits that fit what you're doing and what you're good at.[/sblock] [sblock=The Investigation]0 SUCCESSES  Clues/Facts:  - Three months ago, animals start acting up. It starts in forest, spreads to farms and village.- Three weeks ago, a farmhand named Rand entered the Sea Foam Tavern and started attacking people. Was killed by a blow to the head.- A week ago, Krill Kol enters the villages screaming about sparks and strange people before passing out. Has no memory of event on awakening.  - Six days ago, two people killed by an eight year old boy named Mart. Boy subsequently killed by Lt. Rayn.- Patrols sent out to investigate. Eighteen men disappeared and one was found killed, apparently by a member of the guard. Lt. Rayn was one of the men who disappeared.  Possible Actions:  - Talk with Council.- Investigate the bodies of Rand and Mart. Arcana, Nature, Heal, or give me a good reason for something else. Different skills may reveal different things.[/sblock]</blockquote>
