Luthal puts his hand up to stop the party's advance.  He points up in the sky ((Spot check success)) and the group sees a number of crows and other carrion birds circling an area ahead on the trail.  The gnoll puts his finger to his lips to signify to the group to be silent, then motions for Zook to move up ahead and check things out.  The changeling nods, changes his color to shades of green, then sneaks off into the underbrush.Zook:[spoiler]When you advance up the trail about 200 feet, you come upon the area where the birds were circling.  It appears to be the remnants of a battle.  You are able to pick out a number of bodies lying on the ground, many of them being picked at by the crows and other birds.  There are a handful of kobolds in various states of being hacked up, and what appears to be the chopped and bashed up remains of a very pale, sickly, non-bleeding dwarf and human.[/spoiler]</blockquote>
