Ambush at Oldwood Trail
As he passed the bend in the road, the courier scout was immediately aware that he was going to be walking into a horrific scene. Even from this distance, the crimson hue on the trees, road and grass were visible. A fear gripped him, tugging at his mind to turn back, but his sense of duty ordered him on.
The closer he came to the wreckage of the caravan, the more puzzling the mystery became. As he passed by the tattered and splintered wagons he noticed no remains, not even the bodies of the draw horses were left behind. The streaks of blood left from the attack indicated that whatever did this dragged the remains of the caravanners and their beasts of burden away. But what could have dispatched all of them so quickly that none could have survived or run into the trees?
After a hasty, panicked investigation, he mounted his steed and began riding hard for town. His mind raced at how to report his findings. It was doubtful that a search party to find survivors was needed, but there was no doubt in his mind that a militia would need formed to find the culprits, whatever they were. They will strike again.
