Sheriff Hemlock's page

Err. Hey, boss, did that farmer give me his name when I caught up with him after running the wolverine off?

Heh, nope. The guy never did tell you his name. Your memory of the land is good enough that you can give the sheriff enough information to figure it out, though.

"Did you come straight here upon arrival? I imagine you'll need someplace to spend the night. I can give you a recommendation. If you're short of gold, I could even put you up here, provided you don't mind sparse quarters or a little noise while you sleep."

"I do not know what attacked there, but whatever it was, they had weapons. Bladed weapons. Those wounds were not the work of teeth. And they managed to kill three fully grown cows in a matter of moments. I found footprints left by something wearing shoes, but I am not a tracker, sheriff. I know not where they went. I also found tracks of something with claws, but it appeared to walk on only two feet. This is clearly not a natural event, and so falls under your expertise, not mine."

"That does sound grim. Unfortunately, I and my men have our hands full with festival business. Sandpoint's population is swelling at the moment, and more elbows rubbing together means more opportunity for friction. I can't rightly spare anyone to investigate at the moment, but perhaps after the festival I can look in on this. Which farm did you say this occurred at?"

"Master halfling. My man here says you have some kind of crime in the farmlands to report. Something about cattle rustling?"
