Owen is experiencing a burning sensation in his belly, but it isn't particularly strong or debilitating.

Cyrind'ae frowns.
"I hope you realize how highly irresponsible and risky that was..."

"It was brave," contradicts the paladin, "Well done, Owen. Your and Cyrind'ae's guesses were right. We better locate the source or culprit quickly, or this whole region will be running mad in short order!" The Knight of Winter Fey looks around at the surrounding woods suspiciously, while donning his armour, "Shall we resume following the trail of the ogres? Or are there tracks or other signs here of anyone else who might be coming to the water, making their poisonous deposits?"

"Since we are here we should all look around, search for any clues If we find a source or signs of it being upriver we should investigate it. If we don't stop the source then the ogres will only be replaced by other manic beasts. If we find nothing we ought to continue our hunt. Kelvin are you able to detect signs of magic?" Owen offers. He also gets to looking around seeing if he cannot find any signs of whoever might have done this.

"Sorry my good man, i specialize in the creating of arcane energies not the detection of them.. but i'll certainly see if I can find anything interesting."

Figuring he can't intimidate the water into giving up its secrets, Nar coaxes his horse alongside Grok's. After a few minutes watching the investigation, he yawns and hits Grok in the upper arm, starting a punching game.

"The halforcs are getting restless!" calls Jhishma, "Owen, Cyrind'ae, any new leads?" he asks, while cautiously keeping an eye and ear out for any new disturbances from beasts or monsters driven mad by the poison.

"I'm afraid I haven't found much. I'm more used to finding obscure information between the pages of old dusty tomes rather than clues amid vegetation... It is entirely possible that this is not the original source of the poisoning and we need to travel further upstream."

Your combined efforts to discern the source of the poisoning lead you to a set of one-horse-pulled-cart tracks, that approach the water. From the edge by those tracks, you can see a barrel in the water, busted open as if with an axe.
Numerous dead fish are in that area, along with frogs, snakes, and further out, dead birds can be found in the underbrush, some protesting their suffering with their dying breaths. The poison seems to be slowly destroying the local wildlife
The watering hole also has a brook that exits, slowly draining the water into the lower lands beyond.
The cart tracks lead off into the forest, toward the Untamed Hills, of course.

"I guess the best course of action would be to first see if we can safely take this barrel out of the water source..."

"By the reaction that our dear friend Owen suffered from running his finger through water laced with a small ammount of this material i would advise against physical contact"
OOC:
How heavy does this barrel look, i'm thinking if using mage hand to lift it outOct 6, 2016 12:48 am
Owen scowls at the sight of the barrel and its reactions. "This is terrible." He looks to Jhishma "I'd prefer to follow this trail and stop those who started this mess. I know that would mean the ogres are being left alone longer, but we will at least be headed in the same direction."

Owen attempts to track the wagon through the forest. Leading his comrades carefully so they are led into no ambushes, the best that he can manage anyhow.
