It almost felt like it could have been a normal morning. Almost being the keyword, because if you're to investigate around further after noticing that your party seems to be down a person - you'll find her.

You'll find her tied up against a tree- blood staining her neck and the clothes she wears. It's clear as day that upon seeing her that she's dead-- and somebody had clearly done this to her. Upon moving up closer to her body, you'll find a deep gash that goes all the way across her neck, as well as the faint bruises of something that had been around her neck. It's hard to tell if she had been killed from strangulation, or if the gash on her neck was the reason why she died...

The only other thing you notice about her body is the dog ears that rest upon her head still seem to be pressed against her head- a clear sign that in her final moments, she was terrified.

How odd...
