((We will clear the horses out of the trails, at least enough to get the wagon through. Tygron would prefer to burn or bury the bodies, but if that’s not an option with some sort of magic we leave them)).
Teo let's out an uncomfortable chuckle and he slowly makes his way to the goblin he killed. He carefully removes the arrow from the body and examines it for damage before placing it into his quiver. He then searches the body for any coins or trinkets of cultural significance. He speaks directly to the dead goblin: "We gave you a chance, didn't we? Told you to run. No shame in running, friend. But, you didn't, and now you're dead. Pride can be very expensive. So, let's see what you've got in those pockets of yours."
Investigation check (if needed): 17
After searching the body, Teo will walk over to the dead horses and start to move them off of the road.
You don't find much of value on the goblins. Five cheap looking shortswords, 28 arrows, 5 short bows and 4gp, 10 silver and 23cp. On the one that seemed to be the leader you find an empty leather map case.
As the fog of war drains away you feel like the markings and colourings on the horses match what you heard Gundren say his and Sildar's looked like.
Ryn: Sheepishly emerging from the foliage as the final goblin falls, Ryn quickly wipes clean his glaive before holstering the weapon. As he retrieves his spear and shield, he says, "Good fighting everyone! I'm sorry you all had to see the... mess I made. The fighting starts and my training takes over."
Quickly assisting Tygron to move the dead horses, he says gravely, "They might not have been lying about there being more of them out there."

Tygron says- “this lookin maybe like the horses the others had. Mayhap we should look around fer any signs o trouble or where the wagon got off too. If they pulled it into the woods t trail should be easy to follow...”
"I don't think they had a wagon," the elf notes. "Wasn't he and his friend riding ahead?" He casts about for any sign, knowing that following a mark in the city isn't the same as out here (Survival check: 7). "Ryn, this is more your forté. What would those tracks look like, goblins dragging an angry dwarf?"
After all the Goblins drop, Melaria will step to the front of the Wagon. While standing next to the mules, she'll look over her staff, quietly whispering to herself. "Not a single one? Not a single, ******* one? Come on Melaria, you're better than this. Vlaakith didn't save you to have you throw it away like this. Focus!" The last little bit slightly louder than the rest. She refocuses herself and steps up to the rest of the group. "Is there anything I can do?"
With plenty of heaving and puffing you manage to move the horses to the side of the path, not completely off the path but enough to get the wagon passed if needed.
As you do this you see the same arrows sticking out the horses, confirming the obvious, that the goblins are likely responsible. There are very clear signs of a struggle around the horses, that look relatively fresh.

Quickly assisting Tygron to move the dead horses, he says gravely, "They might not have been lying about there being more of them out there."
Perception: 20
You scan the surrounding greenery, but there is no sign of any further threat. It seems the goblin was bluffing. As you look around you notice a small trail peeling of the main one, 20 or so feet passed the horses. Too small to get the wagon down, and partially hidden.

You squat down, and pick up a bit of soil between thumb and finger and sprinkle it in the air. Then you stand up, cross your arms and put one hand on your chin and stare knowingly.
Ultimately all you see is a messy trail and some woodlands.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ryn: After quickly surveying the area, Ryn response, "There is a hidden path just up ahead. I could likely follow their trail easily enough. The wagon would not fit, however, and would need to be hidden."
As the others discuss, Ryn will have a closer look at the hidden path and attempt to pick up a trail.
Tygron says “Yer right, we gots the only wagon. I gets a little confused in me old age some. We don’t be wanting to leave our wagon unwatched -but methinks we should be checkin out that trail jus to see if theirs troubles. Mayhap we could move our wagon out of sight and bring the mules with?. Rocky and Randy (What he’s been calling the mules) could use a break from them harnesses,and get some greens.”
Sensing Melaria’s frustration, Tygron gives her a kind look. - “Don’t worry about the fight me girl- ye’ll get Yer chance. Yer blasts have power, I can see that- these little goblins are hard t hit. And this crew killed em too quick to give you a chance. I don’t even think that took the 10 seconds the leader was given us! We mayhap needs to check out this trail a little ways, just to see if our people are in trouble down there.”
((Assuming that’s the plan, Tygron will help with hiding the wagon off the road a bit, using his dagger to cut some branches to cover it and the trail it left as needed, then unhitching the mules and getting ready for the trail))
Melaria will nod as Tygron comforts her anger toward her lack of damage in the fight. "You're right, we can't win or hit them all I suppose." She breaks off and heads towards one of the Goblins, leaning down, she'll run her hand over the front of the Goblin, starting at the head and working her way down to his chest before stopping. Whispering to it she'll say. "It's a shame... You were already cursed with a short life, and now you'll never get to see what that life would have been... But that is life, may Kelemvor look down on you." She'll stand up and head over to Ryn. "You said you have a trail over here? Might not be Goblins, but it's the most likely scenario right now."
Ryn: After quickly surveying the area, Ryn response, "There is a hidden path just up ahead. I could likely follow their trail easily enough. The wagon would not fit, however, and would need to be hidden."
As the others discuss, Ryn will have a closer look at the hidden path and attempt to pick up a trail.
Survival: 21
A closer inspection of the trail reveals that is frequented by goblins, and you can see evidence of other humanoid footprints heading away from the main trail and some specks of blood.
You get the impression that this is likely the route they use to set up ambushes along the Triboar Trail and that it's probable Gundren and Sildar were taken this way.
((Assuming that’s the plan, Tygron will help with hiding the wagon off the road a bit, using his dagger to cut some branches to cover it and the trail it left as needed, then unhitching the mules and getting ready for the trail))
There is places off to the side of the trail that are easy enough to hide the wagon, and with a few well placed branches the wagon is pretty well camouflaged.
