He heard the voice behind him comment on the bite being dog like, which would sort of match the handful of tracks he was looking at. "If this was a dog, it's a bigger one than I've ever laid eyes on." he called back over his shoulder, keeping his gaze sweeping the surroundings for any signs of trouble.<br/><br/>The stable itself seemed untouched, nothing out of place, though the animals within moved uneasily. The rain continued to drum down on the wooden roof overhead, sounding like it was picking up in intensity.<br/><br/>He moved back out to the courtyard, where a few of the staff and guests had emerged. "Get the lad inside, he needs to be warm and dry." His tone was the snap of command, and the staff of the inn responded, carefully lifting the injured lad and carrying him inside. "I can't see what did it." he said to those still gathered. "There are some tracks near the stable, maybe a dog or wolf, but far larger than any I've ever seen before. I don't think we'd have much luck trying to follow them in this murk. Maybe there will still be something usable come the morning."<br/><br/>He gestured back towards the inn. "For now, I'm thinking we best get everyone back inside, and see what else has been happening here."
