[OOC: Both groups come back together]

"Hello lads, we have very sad news we found one of the boys dead. We've made sure his attacker some sort of plant will bother no one else though. In the future use piercing weapons against plants like spears and rapiers, not axes." Orlen comments on their adventures up to this point.

Sir Jovius nodded in agreement at the trackers summary of their Adventures

“Any sign yet of the other boys?”

The druid, ever quiet, seemed more somber and perplexed. She looked at the badger at her side who snorted, but she looked at them all. "We found the boy in a cave, strung up by stone, still alive but trapped. We were attacked by one of the farmers, or it was once was. When it hit us it was an undead abomination with a stench of death and evil."

She placed her hands on her hips. "To shape stone like that takes true power.....only elementals or spellcasters with power could have done that."

"This is an old, old place," Ty says nervously. "Maybe it was a trap left from way back then and there isn't a sorcerer here now to do that to us."
