To Catch a Killer

Search for traces of the creature that attacked the soldiers in the forest near Woodchop Village.

(You notice [112633|Mick Supan] looks very agitated. He tries to hide it and maintain his composure.)

Oh! OK! I admit things aren't looking good. I never imagined a simple supply run would end up costing lives...

You say they were attacked by some kind of creature. If that's true then surely it must have left behind some fur or tracks or other clues? I want you to go and find out what kind of thing did this. I'd go myself, but I have to stay here and protect the viscount... so this golden opportunity falls on you!

If you can find something, I'm sure the viscount will reward you very generously. What are you waiting for? Hurry!

(As [112632|Lao Timiz] looks at the clues you have brought, you notice that his entire body is trembling very slightly. Still, he manages to maintain his haughty demeanor and signals the lieutenant to deal with the matter. Not once does he look you directly in the eye.)

Lieutenant, am I in any danger? There isn't a single soldier left to defend me - you're not going anywhere.
