Osric quickly ties Feargal's lead to the back of one of the other wagons. "Don't you lose my cart now," he says jokingly, stroking its nose.
He grabs his lance and jumps onto Seamus' back. Riding alongside Uiim for a moment he says, "I'll ride up ahead a bit - don't be late!" He winks at the old gnome and with a spirited "HYAH!" Seamus surges forward toward the smoke.

Log-a-log:
Everyone:
As Osric rides into the town, passing the short crop of trees and the few shacks, lance ready, he nearly tramples into a mob of people near the center of town, followed by the rest of the troupe. They are milling about in a half-circle, on the far side is the charred remains of what used to be the only true house within this town. Many of them fall back at the brazen arrival of the mounted warrior, and you can make out what seems to be the corpse of a Huom. However, the thing is horribly disfigured by some sort of burn and the grimace upon it's face shakes your very nerves.
The biting smell of the charred wood stings your noses and eyes, but the image of the corpse is the most disturbing.
Nassitch:
Tau:
As you circle around, none in the town seem to notice you, you dash behind a shack and then circle forward. Crouching behind a pile of discarded lumber you can make out what looks to be the corpse of a Huom, however it is horribly disfigured by some sort of burn and a leering grimace shakes your nerves. As you back away, you stumble upon a small board which clatters to the ground, however despite the noise none of those circled about the corpse notice you as Osric gallops into town. Although once one of the carriages manned by Uiim shudders into view, you notice that Tau picks you out from a distance.

Nassitch:
You can make out that the scent that startled him is even more keenly disturbing, in that it was not a living Huom but the acrid stench of death mingled together.
Tau:
You notice Log-a-log standing among piles of discared lumber off beyond the charred house, next to a shack, he seems in perfectly fine shape, although a bit startled.
*Kromgron, already on the step of the wagon, steps up and holds on for dear life. Holding Bullcleaver in one hand, he grasps the crystal rod strapped to the handle and pushes it with his mind, drawing out a heavy sphere of iron from his backpack with the other.*

As the wagon rolls into town, Tau steps deftly off before it comes to rest and moves directly into the center of the crowd hoping that there will be some evidence of what happened remaining at the grisly scene. As he notices log he winks, keeping the knowledge of his location to himself, glad to have an extra set of hidden eyes watching his back.
Once he reaches the body of the Huom he will look around for evidence of what happened and any abberant tracks that lead to or from the area.

Isida:
Everyone:
It dawns upon you that this was the house of the Huom master of this village, the overseer so to speak, and you can only surmise that this corpse is that of the overseer.
As Tau advances, the crowd parts for him, letting him close to the Huom.
Tau:
Did you miss my prior post as I noticed they were pretty close together, or are you going on that information for your actions?

Tau:
You can't make out very much in your examination, the firm beaten earth and the many footprints from the gathered crowd either hiding any trail left by whoever had done this or there was no trail to be made.

Uiim brings the horses to an abrupt halt, but not such that the horses will be harmed. He steps off and takes in the scene, his mind immediately springing to work. He turns to the crowd - "Everyone - stay back! We need a little room to see what has happened here!"
He then turns to his crew. "Osric - make sure no one leaves or enters the immediate area - if the culprit is still here, we don't want them leaving. Tau, check the area for tr-" Uiim looks up to see that Tau is still checking for tracks and signs and he shrugs sheepishly, "I see, well keep doing that, then..."
He looks to the others and speaks quickly. "Kromgron, you help Osric. Olivia and Layonarai, begin talking to these folk and see what you can find out about what happened here - if you hear of someone who did it, or who confesses, call Kromgron and Osric immediately. Nassitch, you and Kimble look around and see if you can see any clues to what happened here. Everyone - keep an eye out for Log - he's still missing... Oh, and Olivia, ask those to whom you speak if they have seen someone matching Log's description."
The old gnome looks terribly worried. "Once the Mythar find out about this, there'll be hell to pay..."
