Seeing the others making reasonable attempts to solve the mystery of this hill, Yurei contents himself with flying in lazy circles about the area watching for danger. He chats in a chittering language with his bird which flies in accompaniment.

Eldran Hawkshand does spot a trail that leads down the hillside. It is the roughly shod track of a creature estimated to be anywhere from 5 to 7 feet tall.
From your post, Helfdan, I can't tell whether you're following the tracks forward to their destination, or back their origin. They are coming from higher on the hill and leading down, along the river somewhere.
