"Thank you, you've done well," Corin affirms that it wasn't the maid's fault, then turns to the others gathered in the room, "So .... this may be nothing, but I am going to go take a look - any of you with a keen eye or strong arm are welcome to join me."
"This could well be nothing," Corin thinks to himself, "maybe just a rat, but .... it could be more..."
Vyncent was planning on trying to aid Corin in calming down the maid but was a bit distracted by the dwarf barging into the room with his arms full of food asking about the strange goings-on the group had been discussing prior to the maid's entrance. "Where on earth did you get that food, Stonecrusher?" he asks, too surprised to focus on the task at hand. He only heard the last bit of the maid's story about eggs disappearing and that there were suspicious noises coming from the nestboxes. Didn't sound like any fox Vyncent had ever heard of.
"I would like to accompany you, Sir Corin," Vyncent says, reaching for his crossbow, "better to be safe than sorry."

Regmiir looks Vyncent right in the eye as he finishes his last bit of food and drink. He awkwardly states "It was in the pantry....".
He jubilantly accompanies the party outside, as he now believes he is part of the group. While he still appears tired and disheveled, the new task and bit of food have lifted his spirits. "Onward!"
Morgan stands up and leans near the doorway, still eating the apple. "This sounds interesting, lead the way sir Corin." He turns to Regmiir, and with a slight smirk he mutters "Most places you have to pay for dinner and a show, what a treat".
OOC: As a reminder, a torch sheds bright light out to 30' and dim light 30' past that. Characters with darkvision treat it as bright light out to 60'. No one can see further than 60'.
IC: You head out to the chicken coop. It's big enough to stand upright inside. There are a lot of frightened chickens running around outside like, well, headless chickens.

"There should be a lantern out here too, to light the chicken coop," Corin states to the others, as they all arrive, "I'll sort that - please, all feel free to start looking around for any evidence."
(Corin checks for the lantern, that it's still there and if so lights it. DM: What rolls would be appropriate for looking around under these circumstances?)

Regmiir looks Morgan from top to bottom and then hits his hammer a single time against his shield. He then walks out with the others to investigate.
"Then let us head off!" Corin exclaims, striding out the door, in the direction of the chicken coop, to investigate what has happened.

It's dark out. Anyone carrying a torch?

Vyncent grabs a torch off of a wall sconce in Corin's home. He only needed one hand to operate his hand crossbow, after all.
"I hope you don't mind, Sir Corin, but it's dark out there. We could use the light."

Animal Handling if you want to calm the chickens for some reason; you can always try Perception, Investigation, or Survival (to look for tracks).

Morgan steps up to the ground where there's light "Hmm, I let's see here" 14
Regmiir also looks around. (perception +3 and he has dark vision if that matters. )
Vyncent holds up his torch, squinting around the yard to try and see if anything out of the ordinary sticks out. (perception check)

Morgan finds tracks of a very small creature going in to the coop. Not a chicken.

Corin furrows his brow in concentration, as he focusses on using one of the gifts of his Paladin order.
(Using Divine Sense to check for anything out of the ordinary).

Corin senses nothing. I forgot about the total cover thing.

Morgan quietly pulls out his rapier out, and whispers "I've got something small. Not sure what." Morgan gets closer to the coop. (can stealth?)
Yes, you can try Stealth.
