[Anastasia]

There's the occasional animal tracks - deer, rabbits and similar creatures. There's also signs of footsteps, perhaps a week or so old.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa heads inside, sticking to shadows and needing this exploration to take her mind off of Shar and murder.

[Anastasia]

For reference, make a Stealth check.

[Anastasia]

You creep into the cave. It is fairly unremarkable at first, a simple cavern going deeper into the ground. Yet you soon see something ahead - a small campfire, currently out. A backpack, a bed roll, a few iron pots. Several animal pelts - rabbits, dears, foxes and so forth - adorn the walls. A few barrels are to the side, closed. The cave continues on past this, no one seemingly here.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa finds a nook and sits quietly, inspecting the area. She suspects that whoever's camp this is, is either watching her or is searching for her just like she is.

[Anastasia]

It's reasonably pleasant enough on a glance - though you note one odd thing. There's both subtle signs of footprints and animal claws here, both fresh.

[Iron Dragoon]

'Hmmm... Likely a Ranger or Druid, then...' she thinks to herself. Neither of those tend to be overtly hostile to people, so she'll explore the cave some more, leaving the camp alone.

[Anastasia]

Perception.

[Anastasia]

Ahead is a slightly narrower path, with some rocky outcroppings. In particular, you catch a faint hint of gray fur poking out from behind one of them.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa approaches a bit more slowly and waits until she can fully see what it is.
