"So, where did militia go then, I suppose we could follow them right?" Sarya suggests, quickly counting the coins in her pile. "If they're not back yet they could be in trouble. I'm ready to go after them as soon as I've had a hot morning meal." She adds, looking over at the bar to see if she could order something to eat now.
"He looked like he had been dead for weeks if not months as soon as we defeated him." Darby adds as he eyes the coin with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Well...now this does ring a bell I heard once a tale of Winter spirits in the service of Auril taking possesion of dead bodies, that could be it" - Says Hlin as she scratches her chin thinking.

"I'm done eating and can continue with drinking later, I have the whole day for that" - Says as she takes some big breath to gather strentgh to jump of the chair and stretch her legs and shoulders - "Maybe I can help you gathering some more intel about this situation while you eat I really like it here so it'll be in the best interest of everyone"
"What do ya mean he took tha Mead?" Dwalt speaks up. "Why in tha 9 Hells didn't anyone say a thing about tha mead being gone.?" he asks. Dwalt pauses.
"Does anyone know which way tha killer went to? What's tha militia said about it all?"
"I know, I should've said something about this before hahaha well, I'm sure someone can share some information...don't worry about it" - She nods to the everyone at the table (money promised for Sepheks job was already left at the table and before leaving she drops a couple of silver coins for the food and drinks of everyone) - "I don't think people from the town can pay much for the mead so at least let me pay for the meal"
Hlin exits the place and people at the tavern brings food and drinks, they don't have a menu and a huge variety of things to offer so they simpley bring the food to you after Hlin waved to them and pointed to the table moving her hands in a gesture that could be understood as food and drinks.
The veteran dwarfs takes a little more than 30 minutes, enough for you to eat, drink and muster strentgh for this new day. "I already spoke to a couple of guys who can point you in the direction the militia went which is the direction where the Verbeeg went."
Whenever you exit the building a young man - early 20's - will reach you and point in the direction.
Sarya eagerly eats and drinks what is offered. "So, I guess we're going to save that mead huh? Even if the town can't afford a reward I figure this Verbeeg or whatever it's called might have other valuables that could be our reward for doing a good deed, right?" She says as she finishes up, looking to Ghathi for support, ready to go Verbeeg hunting now.
"Damn right we're savin' tha Mead." Dwalt says with some gusto. "It's tha 1 thing that helps on tha blasted cold nights in this place." Dwalt gets up and makes his way outside to find the person to point the way.

The young man waiting outside recognizes Dwalt - a young fellow formerly trained by Kendrick to join the militia - he points towards an area that Dwalt knows well, the woods where he often hunts for small game.
The guy never left the town so he doesn't know any new information.
As Dwalt sprinted towards the woods he spotted a figure in cold weather clothing lurching out of the woods into plain view, running as fast as he can through the deep snow. Slung over his back are a pair of animal traps, one of which appears to contain a panicked fox.
Ghathi has a small breakfast, finishing up quickly. He then joins the others as they head out and heads for the forest in the direction the boy directs them.
(I'm not sure what's happening - Dwalt sprinted for the woods? Where are the rest of us? Did Dwalt leave us behind? Do we see the person coming out of the wood also?)

I kind of assume everyone had their breakfast and would've being able to follow Dwalt maybe 20 ft or 10 ft behind. He wouldn't move to far before noticing the figure running towards town.
(Assuming we are still together, about to enter the woods, seeing the person running towards the town.)
"Hey, hold up, why the running? Did you see the Verbeeg over there?"Sarya calls out to the running man as he approaches them. Persuasion to make him stop and talk: 8 (rolled with advantage if help action is given, otherwise go with first roll.)
Darby took his time enjoying his meal, carefully cleaning himself at first. Once the others get up to leave, the gnome slides from his seat and moves to follow. "Off we go again. This shall prove interesting."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ghathi moves quickly to catch up with everyone, coming up next to Sarya. As the others try to speak to the man, he casts a glances towards the wood to try and see any reason he might be running. (Perception: 18)

No need to roll persuasion, the person will stop as soon as he reaches Dwalt.

Nothing can be seen behind the person but the entrance to the woods several feet away
Dwalt recognizes the man, Fef Moryn a fellow trapper known for being a coward but actually good catching animals "Dwalt! Geffen, Aryn, Donald (Militia members) and the rest I found them! over there! they are all dead Dwalt!" - Fef drop to his needs holding a strong grip on both the trap with the fox and the rest of the empty ones - "They are all dead, if I didn't know they were on the look for the Verbeeg I would'nt recognize them."
Sarya looks up at Ghathi, unsure whether to just move on as the three members of the militia apparently had perished just outside town. "Can you, show us the way, we can't leave them there right?" She turns and says to the hunter.
"C'mon Dwalt I just came from there....I I I don't want to go back... I know you can follow my trail" - says shaking on his knees - "I did'nt see what killed them....I I I catched this - raising the trap with rattled fox - near where I found them, I don't think a fox would've stayed near a verbeeg...please don't make me go back"
Grim steps up and puts his hand on the mans arm in a calming way. "T'would help if'n you could guide us there, but if ya' truly cannot stomach it, we won't force you."

Grim will follow the rest. Seeing a figure running he'll look to see if there's danger or something chasing him

Dwalt will slow as he gets to the running man.
"What's tha hurry neighbor?" he asks.
(OCC: does Dwalt recognize this person?)

Ghathi steps forward, "Are you saying you think the verbeeg killed all of them? How were they killed?"

Dwalt shakes his head in amazement.
"If this keeps up there'll be a population of 0 in this town." he says. "Alright, show tha way Fef."
Dwalt will follow the man.
