+Ask them what they do. If they stall, prompt:
+1. Do you approach?
+2. Keep your distance? 
+3. Check the tracks?
+4. Call out?

+> The fog behind the fallen horse shifts again.
+> You hear armor clattering. Not marching — stumbling.
+> A second horse steps forward, led not by reins, but by momentum alone. Its rider sits slumped in the saddle, head lolling at an angle that a human neck should not allow.
+> The rider’s helmet has been crushed inward. Bone pushes through broken metal like chalk through tin.
+> The horse takes one more step.
+> The rider slides sideways off its back.
+> He hits the ground spine-first.
+> **CRACK**
+> The sound echoes. Too loud. Too close.
+> The man’s body folds wrong in the middle, legs twitching independently of the torso, nerves firing their last confused signals.

+If they examine the body:
+	- The spine is shattered in 3 places
+	- Shoulders dislocated.
+	- Lower jaw broken, and hanging by a hinge of skin.
+	- He did screaming, in pain, and recently.
+He is holding:
+	- Something wrapped in a blood-stained scrap of parchment.
+	- A wooden toy figure painted with a smile.
+	- Burned into the back- "Is No Fun, Is No Blinsky"
