"It looks like an old body. We could leave it somewhere and it seems likely if it is found they will assume it was someone that died due to the cold." Darby suggests as he pockets his gem once more, pulling his winter clothes around himself tightly.
"Actually Hlin didn't mention anything about bringing the body, or anything else, back. I think we should just get rid of it, now, if not in the lake then perhaps drag it away outside town where it won't be found. Now let's do this before someone comes looking for our friend here" Sarya says, going for an arm to drag Sephek away, hoping for some help with that.
(Any result from Ghathi checking Sephek's body - post #220?)
Ghathi comes over to help Sarya move Sephek. "All right, if nobody things we need to bring Sephek back to Hlin then I'll help you. We'll take him out of town?"

You can move the body out of Dougan’s hole, luckily no one was outside and the operation when smoothly. What are you going to do with the body? You already know that mear the entrance to Dougan a couple of trees surround the “road” there are many places to hide the body. Are you dumping the body outside of the town?
Unless the dumping of Sephek's body outside of Dougan's hole meets with any unexpected problems Sarya suggests the team make it back for main hall of the town for warmth and a perhaps a meal. Once everyone is there she tries to get their attention. "For those of you who didn't alrteady hear this there has been a couple of young people gone missing here recently, likely taken by the wolves we saw outside town on our way here. I spoke to the town speaker Edgra Durmoot earlier and she confirmed that the wolves were involved in the disappearence but she thinks the youngsters must been killed by now and won't offer any type of reward. Anyone interested in getting involved anyway?" She says, not completely convinced herself that taking on those wolves is a good idea.
Grim will nod. "As I mentioned before, I' be happy to attempt t' talk to the wolves first. Wolves don' usually attack humans unless there's something wrong w' them or they're exceptionally hungry. If there's something wrong w' them, then it may be best to find that out and prevent it from spreading. If they're exceptionally hungry, then maybe an accord can be reached w' them."
Dwalt follows along mostly, lending a hand where he can, still a bit concerned with the group he just threw in with.
When Sarya speaks up about the wolves he responds. "Wolves hunt and kill ta survive. If'n they're coming in this close ta tha settlement it means they got a taste fer easier prey. I'll help ta hunt 'em down and put an end to 'em. I love a good hunt an' claim a wolf fang fer myself." he says.
Ghathi nods. "If the wolves are enough of a menace to take young people from the town, then we should at least look into it." He looks specifically at Grim and Dwalt. "You speak of normal wolves. From what we saw and the rumors in town, we should beware that perhaps these aren't just normal wolves. Not to discourage us from looking into it, but just to be cautious."
"So, what kind of wolves are we talking about?" Sarya says curiously, looking at the goliath and the dwarves. "It sure would be good to know what we're up against before taking them on."
Though moving the body out of town is an action hard to conceal I'll still ask a stealth roll for at least for of you (two carrying the body and two scouting, the remaining players may help and allow two players to roll with advantage) - I've said before that people inside Dougan's Hole aren't outside, this town is also the most inhospitable so it makes sense, however, there might be some other things lurking outside and that's what you are rolling against.
I'll add a spoiler box with the information of what you encounter if most of you fail the roll. I'd like to do it this way so we don't stall the game longer. If must of you pass you manage to dump the body in a safe place unnoticed.
Stealth DC: 17 (at least 3 must roll same or higher)
After finding a good place to dump Sephek's body and actually getting rid of it. You notice a big shadow creeping besides you, but the sounds made by the creature aren't hostile, a soft whimpering echoes around you and when you turn there's a big wolf limping on one back leg...
"I'm sorry to bother you...but I need your help" - Says the wolf with a raspy but soft voice.
regarding the discussion you are having right now I imagined that it could've ocurred a little before you dumped the body, on your way there or minutes before the event from the spoiler box (if it actually occurs)
It is clear that after Torga picked up her store there was pretty much nothing else to do outside so there was no one walking around.

Darby will keep watch as the body is drug out of the way, knowing that he would be little help with lifting and pulling.

(Yes, dumping and hiding it in the snow outside of town. Then back to discuss the matter of the missing persons.)
Once the body is dumped, Darby will make his way quickly back into the small settlement, waiting for the entrance for the others.

"I'd be willing to go after them."

Sarya stealth: 16 assuming help action from Ghathi.
(Suggest that Sarya, Dwalt and Grim make the stealth checks with help actions from the other three. Still seems hard though. Good luck.)
(Grim Stealth: 11)
