"We should spend the night in the village and then pick up the trail early next morning. Where is your house again? We can hole up there for the night"
After following the tracks they eventually find a spot where the the tracks diverge into two paths one that is going north-west and one that is going south-east
He says “north-west is towards the rugged mountains and south east is back towards the outpost. Maybe they were being chased because the rugged mountains are a great place to hide”
"We've already been to the outpost so I almost wonder if they fell for the trap in the ruins. Let's head to the mountains and try to find them. If they are being chased by something they'll have answers for us."
Seraph carefully enters the large cave, looking around for people hiding. He asks, "Should be calling out to them to let them know it's you and not... whoever it is they are hiding from?"
Maitake calls out “anybody in here?” And a large number of disheveled civilians step out and a woman in the front points at seraph and yells “What is that thing!”

When the two walk back to the village they encounter no trouble and by the time they reach the village night is beginning to fall
"We should spend the night in the village and then pick up the trail early next morning. Where is your house again? We can hole up there for the night"
He says “it is in the northwest part of the village” and the two go there and long rest
The next morning, Seraph looks to see if the tracks that Maitake found are still there.
The tracks are still there
That is one relief. Hopefully following them would lead to the villagers. Seraph follows the tracks.
After following the tracks they eventually find a spot where the the tracks diverge into two paths one that is going north-west and one that is going south-east
"That's... odd." Seraph comments. "Why would the villagers split up? Maitake! You're from around here. Which path goes where?"
He says “north-west is towards the rugged mountains and south east is back towards the outpost. Maybe they were being chased because the rugged mountains are a great place to hide”
"We've already been to the outpost so I almost wonder if they fell for the trap in the ruins. Let's head to the mountains and try to find them. If they are being chased by something they'll have answers for us."
When heading to the mountains the two soon see a large lizard-like creature up ahead on the path
Seraph backs away from it, not wanting to get on its bad side. He asks Maitake, "What... is that?"
He says “that is a giant plains lizard it is a pest that sometimes eats our livestock”
"Let's try to avoid it and keep searching the mountain for your folks."
Roll for stealth
Stealth: 19
The lizard creature does not see either seraph or Maitake
Soon the two come across a large cave in the side of a mountain that the footprints appear to be leading into
Seraph carefully enters the large cave, looking around for people hiding. He asks, "Should be calling out to them to let them know it's you and not... whoever it is they are hiding from?"
Maitake calls out “anybody in here?” And a large number of disheveled civilians step out and a woman in the front points at seraph and yells “What is that thing!”
