Something you are unfamiliar with

The tracks simply don’t match any of the monsters you know off, though you have very little first hand knowledge to work with. What you can tell is that it is a hooved creature, with the feet size around the same as a goat. But by the tracks you can tell it is no four legged animal, but something bipedal.

Well most monsters in this forest are not known to be overly powerful alone, mostly goblins and the occasional ogre. The fact this creature is alone either makes them powerful or separated from their group. You could continue tracking whatever this is in the hopes you could handle it and earn unique prestige... or just be smart and not mess with the unknown.
