"It's just like back at the caravan," Dravela comments as she looks across the field in dismay. "Why do you people feel sad for them? They served the Order," Xinderas says as she points to the Order emblem of one of the victims.

"Even if they served for those pious jerkoffs, they're still human beings who possibly had families," Despoina says as she flies down from the tree and rejoins the group with the letter in tow. "Agreed, this entire scene is depressing," Riza whispers.

"Well ladies, I think we've mourned the dead long enough, now let's get a move..." Rix's voice is cut off by the pop of a gunshot, followed by something whizzing an inch past Arianna's head.

"Shit!" Lumbre barks as everyone gets into a combat position.

On the other side of the clearing, multiple constructs emerge from the forest wielding a variety of melee weapons. One of them is armed with a musket, possibly the shooter. Three other creatures step into the clearing alongside the constructs: two deer, similar to the one that Arianna, Dravela, and Xinderas fought earlier, and a cougar. All three animals have entirely wooden frames that match their real life counterparts complete with gem eyes.

For now, the artificial group holds position, almost as if they're waiting for something.
