"Wells times ta finds me lost Outer." he says handing the bottle back and then heading off behind Athos. The party travels alertly through the dark forest, a howling wolf can be heard off in the distance but there is no answering cry, so it seems the wolves have moved on but the party stays alert. Greyhay proves a reliable tracker as he brings the party to a clearing showing signs of recent fight. The broken up ground of a horse being pulled in a tight circle. And even a blood trail that leads off to a dead wolf that was stabbed and then tried to crawl away but died not far from the battle site.  Searching the area the party discovers where the horseman turned and ran the trail leading off further into the woods. It is only a little time before the trail breaks from the woods to a clearing of tall grass, but the path followed by the Outrider is clearly evident to all. The grass was trampled by the fleeing horse and leaves a path anyone could follow. Greyhay runs out ahead seeings as how everyone can follow this easily, but returns only a few minutes later with grave news. He takes the party along the path to where it leads to a huge gorge. The party stands on the edge of a cliff some 80 feet in the air looking down to a stony creek bed below. Greyhay points an everyone notices a stiff legged horse lying on the rocks, it's harness glinting in the moonlight. "Were's me Outer?" asks the dwarf in a sad voice. [sblock] spot checks and any actions you wish to take to start [/sblock]</blockquote>
