Although the fire has totally destroyed any markings there may have been, there still remains enough of the charred shell for you to recognize its military origin. It is a Sommlending cavalry wagon, one of three that accompanied Captain D’Val and his troop.

Once you have satisfied yourself that nothing has been overlooked that may give a clue to Captain D’Val’s fate, you remount your horse and lead your men southwards along the highway.
