The thicket of trees are close enough together that it takes significant time for members to squeeze through, or wait for NR4ZN to smash down enough trees to forge a path to the site.
Thelso [sblock]As you get closer you can scent a light charring scent of burnt wood, as if there were a contained fire that did not spread.[/sblock]
The trees do open out into a devastated path that goes off in two directions. The trees are downed and there are charred remains, though the fire did not seem to spread far.
NR4ZN[sblock]The burns and dimensions of the path appear consistent with particle cannon blasts.[/sblock]
You all see a pair of small corpses, one of them with the crow pecking dartingly at the eyes as it perches upon the creature's head. Also there is some white and black round bear-like creature, a number of moderately sized lizards, and some dead birds of some sort lying dead on the path, many chewed badly with flesh ripped out. There are insects buzzing and crawling around many of them, beetles, flies, and ants mostly. A few short arrows are sticking out of the bear-like thing.
The crow gulps its prize and lets out a delighted sounding "Kuow!"
