It would take careful, scrutinizing eyes to snag clues, if any, that lurked about the eerie house and its nearby scenery. Perhaps the most glaring was the silence itself; wrapped around the surroundings of murk and fog, strangled and smothered away.
As Noah set about around the homestead, he’d be able to notice wagon tracks, deeper and deeper into the mud, until it seemed to almost claim it – and dead ahead, were the remains of it; broken, shattered, incapable of going forward into the muck and grime.
Darkeye made a choice to go beyond – but just so – away from the group and along potential tracks. Unaware at what the Sentinel might’ve found, for now anyway, the cleric would be able to perceive footprints, perhaps a set of three or more, haphazardly strewn about. Had someone fled in a panic? Strangely enough, they led away from the residence.
The venture of Hotaru, skyward, ensured she too would catch sight of the wayward wagon, with oxen nestled nearby, grazing on whatever grass they could snag. Broken away from the merchants’ vessels, they seemed entirely unbothered by the wood and rope contraptions around them – maybe signifying this had either happened days before, and they’d grown used to the movements and motions.
Which left Deimos to knock upon the door – willingly to do so regardless, in hopes of either meeting up with Mildew or snagging at other information. Rapping his knuckles against the frame, he heard nothing in response…only for the aperture to swing open, and the hollow nature of its portal to come to light. Narrowing his eyes and stepping within, the Sword only found traces of dust, debris, and the strange semblance others had been here. Cans of food opened and left on the table, but strewn, fallen over, as if everything had been in a rush.
Strange and bizarre but layered and hidden with enough indications to at least gain some knowledge.
Best to go tell one another.

Meet back up with one another (probably with Deimos in the house) to discuss any information found.
