Re: IC: Twins Ambush Site
In reply to Makarios Lestat (msg # 36):
The day if fair and the sun is strong, there doen't seem to have been any rain in the last few days, so a good quess would be that these trails are about 4 days old.
Makarios traces the horse trail, he inspects the horse dong. The dong has traces of Good quality grain and fair amount of hay. These horses weren't grass feed, meaning that these wear either wealthy bandits or not bandits at all. Also these 'bandits' were in a marching order at one point then scattered as they continued southeast which by your account Leads right to the ambush site.
Lastly and maybe the most important clues, .... there was more then one wagon with this group & the hoves, they are deep leading to believe these men had heavy armor, bandit don't travel this heavy, and use wagons across trail like this unless they we're carry away there spoils.
