What you know:

Your clan chief is Baranthos son of Estavos (father of Harmast), and he is away at a trade-time festival at the Sun Dome Temple, along with many other nobles and landowners of your village, along with a protective force of warriors. His wife Zarah is in charge while he is away, and she asked you to do this deed. Harmast is beholden to obey her, but the rest of you have a bit of wiggle room.

When the herders did not return with the cattle, Zarah sent a runner. The runner went to the pastures and found the herders lying on the ground in a row, two dead and the last nearly so.

The injured herder is named Berra. She claims that while watching the herd as they grazed a couple of kilometers from the village, they were ambushed. Her fellow herders (Endach and Datha) were killed, and Berra was left for dead. She recognized Danakos son of Egrost as the one who stuck a spear through her belly, and said that the other Greydogs were surprised at Danakos’ actions.

The Greydog clan is a part of the Lismelder Tribe, longtime rivals to the Colymar Tribe (your own tribal affiliation). The Greydogs contest ownership of the Starfire Ridge with the clans of the Colymar Tribe. The Greydogs likely used the trade-time festival as an opportunity to raid against their distant neighbors, undoubtedly in return for some past offense.
