Sah
The women's unease was clear, but it was a bit of relief when she dropped her offensive stance and agreed to his proposal. "We don't need it alive to pluck the feathers. Frankly I need it dead for my client anyway. How about I kill it, and you safely remove the feathers, which we then split up between us?"
Sah's eyes went to the bird not too far ahead, "How about you startle it out of the trees, and I'll shoot it down?" Subtlety had failed so far in this hunt. Might as well go for it and shoot it down.
It was just as he was speaking that Sah spotted the Ceffyl Dwr as it was washed up on the shore of the stream beside them. Cursing under his breath, he walked past Amanda and took a knee to observe the creature. He ran a finger along the clean cut to its neck and noted the lack of blood. "This doesn't bode well."
The lack of blood instantly made him think of the supposedly gone Longnight monsters. But the cut seemed too clean for that. He glanced up at Amanda, "Did you see what happened while you were out here, by any chance?" Beside him, Lilly sniffed the area worriedly but didn't pick up on anything unusual.
