[QUOTE="Jimmy Disco T, post: 6401542, member: 6749529"] [OOC: Erevan stealth = 22, Renestrae stealth = 13 / Erevan perception = 16, Renestrae perception = 9] Erevan and Renestrae quickly and quietly clamber up between the rocks - their movement is muffled by the sounds of the river and they remain out of sight. You reach the top of the mound and cautiously take a closer look. You can see that the top of the hill is home to a group of three large standing stones, arranged in a roughly triangular formation. There is a large outcrop of rocky ground at the base of the nearest stone, and there appears to be some sort of natural spring, as water is bubbling up vigorously from underneath the rocks - presumably this is the source of the river. The stones themselves show signs of some worn runic script, but they have all been crudely defaced with dark red paint (blood?) - crude pictograms of gnolls and letters in a language you don't recognise. There is indeed a gnoll campsite here - or rather, there was. The corpses of perhaps a dozen or so gnolls lie scattered amongst the embers of a large campfire, upturned logs, and smashed barrels and crates. Much like before, there are a few kobold corpses as well, and discarded axes, daggers, and javelins litter the ground. An overhanging tree branch near the edge of the camp supports a crude and rusty iron cage, which has been suspended from the branch by a chain. The corpse of an animal of some kind is within, and it sways gently in the breeze. Two things catch Everan's attention - there seems to be a body in the midst of the camp, neither gnoll nor kobold, who appears to be clad in leather armour of some kind. The other thing that he notices is that is appears there was at one point two cages suspended form the tree - one of the other branches has a length of chain, and the final link is broken. Neither of you see or hear any signs of life from the campsite. [/QUOTE]
