Huh, that's odd. Yeah I saw... something. I don't know what. Let's keep moving, Necros needs attention and obviously the roads aren't safe around here.

You continue down the Old Svalich Road, emerging from the forest only briefly to cross a stone bridge over rushing water before plunging back into the forest. It emerges once more 1/4 mile later.
The road comes to an X intersection, with branches to the northwest, northeast (the direction you came from), southwest, and southeast. The lower half of a snapped wooden signpost thrusts upward at an angle near the eastern elbow of the intersection. The top half of the sign, featuring arms pointing in four directions, lies in the weeds nearby.
In the middle of the crossroads, you see a corpse.
Yes. Someone is trying to get in your head, freak you out. Zander shudders. I mean, it's working that shit is creepy, but I think it just means we're on the right track to something, or else they wouldn't be trying to scare us away, right?

“I suppose... no, you’re probably right. Come on let’s get out of here.” Lae says as he snaps to.
Lae goes over and inspects the sign to try and get his mind off the body. Can I tell which direction the sign originally faced based on how the wood broke? Is it longer on one side, or splintered in any way that would allow us to put it back together facing the correct direction?
As you turn to speak, you notice the people are no longer there.
“Uhh.. where’d they get off to? You guys saw them right?”

“Right... “ Lae says shaking his head while still staring at the spot the raven creatures once stood.
(Headed on towards the winery?)
(yes, I think? Unless we're closer to the town we just came from and we know they have a cleric.)

Lae walks over to inspect the corpse.
Careful! Could be a trap. Zander covers Lae with his bow.

The corpse looks exactly like Lae, but stripped of armor, weapons, and valuables.
“Ahh... not again...”
(does anyone else see that it looks like me?)
(Is anyone else looking at it?)
(Not going up to it, looking at it from afar.)
What is it Lae?

“I— it—it’s me...” Lae stammers.
Zander runs over to him to inspect the corpse.

You also see that it looks like Lae, with armor, weapons, etc removed.
Scratching his head, “I don’t know what to make of this Zander... is it a sign... a warning?”
Yes. Someone is trying to get in your head, freak you out. Zander shudders. I mean, it's working that shit is creepy, but I think it just means we're on the right track to something, or else they wouldn't be trying to scare us away, right?

If Zander can assist with that he will. I have a +2 Investigation.
