Tyran scouts the ground, looking for signs of any non-wolf tracks ... Specifically, ones that look like they came from a dogboy.

Megana looks around from her spot to try and find any wolf tracks or any tracks pertaining to the dogboy.

Eventually, they happen across multiple wolf tracks, nearly obscured by blowing snow, the paw pads have filled in already. Most of the tracks seem to head southwest. The arrow is gone...

Tyran scouts the ground, looking for signs of any non-wolf tracks... Specifically, ones that look like they came from a dogboy. He immediately spots some behind a snow feathered spindly bush. They head away to the southwest at a trot. Meanwhile, Meg has a good eye on where the main part of the pack was, but isn't near where the young boy is searching, making her unable to spot the initial dogboy tracks.

Adam kneels next to the dogboy tracks, touches the ground, then glances to the southwest, "He's either armored or carrying more than just a bow. His feet are bare though."

Payton grunts, serious for once, giving a thousand yard stare into the blizzard. "Let's finish this."

Hoots and howls further north indicate one of the warrior parties won their battle.

Vi struggles to maintain her electron induced aura, her mental energy beginning to fade, requiring more concentration. Static begins sparking against snow touching her furs and armor as she rejuvenates her mental focus.

"I don't think wolves 'hoot' like that," Tyran responds. "Unless the pack you picked a fight with has other humanoids you're not mentioning?"

He points out the dogboy tracks in the snow. "He went this way; not walking, but not in a hurry either. Keep your wits about you ... If he's barefoot, it's less likely; but he could be trying to lead us into a hunting pack ambush."

He then continues, following the tracks before the snow covers the trail; absorbing ambient PPE to replenish his internal reserves.

"Spotted where the main pack went," Megana mentions just enough for present company to hear.

Vi stares towards the hooting, trying to glimpse anything useful. She taps Megana's shoulder, "I hope that's ours who won. If not, then today just got a lot longer."

"I don't think wolves 'hoot' like that," Tyran responds. "Unless the pack you picked a fight with has other humanoids you're not mentioning?"

He points out the dogboy tracks in the snow. "He went this way; not walking, but not in a hurry either. Keep your wits about you ... If he's barefoot, it's less likely; but he could be trying to lead us into a hunting pack ambush."

He then continues, following the tracks before the snow covers the trail; absorbing ambient magical energies to replenish his internal reserves. Adam, Payton and Ant follow along, seemingly trusting the new kid as he just saved them. Trevor tests his scope as he follows closely behind the warriors.

Dusty nods to the girls, "Well, you heard the man. Let's go finish this!"

The group slowly and quietly moves along, careful not to crunch the snow too loudly as the follow the tracks in a crouching walk. They finally reach a small hill, overlooking a giant hole in the ground, covered by dead branches and dirt; effectively creating a small cave. It's too hard to see inside and nothing seems to be moving around or present. Tracks of wolves and a dogboy are present everywhere, including a small fire pit just outside of the cave.

The kid's pager begins buzzing...

Senses on high alert, as soon as he feels the buzz, Tyran shouts "Take cover!" while throwing himself backwards and to the side, diving behind the nearest tree or bush while instinctively putting a hand up to one of the medallions on his neck. (OOC: I don't recall the duration, but reactivating it if it's dropped.)

He then utters a quick spell and attempts to disappear from view. (OOC: Invis: Sup)
