Ok, but I need a little more detail, no.... a LOT more detail, please.
I understand that I also control the NPCs, but I need to make the maps
1) are you using the current map area, where you fought the tuskbeasts, which is where your 'bloody trail' as you called it, currently ends and Tarro already did a flyby?
2) do you want a new map?
if you recall, the canyon is roughly as wide as you saw on the combat map at its widest and as narrow as 2m in some places. the party was following the flow of water, as it went downhill into the canyon, from the geyser. the water disappears as it goes underground at some points, like it did on the combat map.
Irwin reports that a little ways into the canyon, about 20-30min on foot, there is a clear fork with 1 path going downhill and the other uphill.
Talib, the Duros, tells you that you are within 30-60min of walking through the canyon to the Wrenvenge's location, to the NE and up in elevation, to sort of a plateau area
Thana tells you that she recalls the tuskbeast den to be roughly 60-90min, to the NW and downhill, continuing to follow the natural canyon as it was carved by a long evaporated river.
I know you didn't ask all those questions, but I am just trying to give you as much info as I can to help you make a decision, so I can make a map and plan the next encounter.
