Three Dead in Caravan Attack.

[Justin]

A Caravan yesterday was found destroyed along the Eastern Road leading towards Norham. The Caravan, ambushed after it had fallen into a large pit trap in the road had been stripped of its some of its goods. There were no survivors, scouts for the merchant house reported that unknown persons had already found and buried the Caravan Guards. The scouts have been unable to locate the identites of the bandits who commited this crime.

The scouts reported a rather well constructed pit trap that had been used to stop the caravan, and noted that this is not the first time that such a trap has been seen in this area.

The Merchant Guild has expressed its concern over what appears to be targetted attacks on its members Caravans, urging the local Militia and Adventurer community to do all it can to bring the perpetrators to justice, and to ensure the safety of the highways.
