We return to the jail cell and interrogate the naked bird guy. He dodges all our questions about where we can find Father Skinsaw and generally doesn't seem to know much. He grew up in the cult and only repeats that he will find us. Meanwhile, a very distressed Farmer Grump runs into the town hall and reports that scarecrows are attacking people in the farms. Shump Shump offers his services and to train the old man to fight himself. Linzi talked to Shaylis and asked if she knew anything about the clawed creature, which she didn't. She took offense at the suggestion that Ven might have been up to anything suspicious and kicked Linzi out. We head south to the farms, several scarecrows stare us down and attempt to paralyze us but Dionaea causes plants to grow around them and we run to a barn in the middle of the fields. Linzi and Shump Shump stick their heads in the barn and see two undead human-like creatures. One calls out for Shump Shump, but we block the door with a cart. Next to the barn is a 12-foot high stone head with a warrior's helmet, covered in moss. Linzi sneaks into the kitchen of the house past undead farmers and inspects a body lying on the floor with a sihedron carved into it and flies circling above. There is a bloodied note from "A" in the pocket with Shump Shump's name on it from someone who fears and hates him and threatens to unmask him. We hide in the trees and outhose around the house awaiting the scarecrows who have followed us through the fields...
