[LPF] Waking the Dead

kinem · Oct 11, 2012

"Excuse me." Menik follows Dolgrin.

"What? Oh, yes, certainly young sirs," begins Pate the Younger in the rambling response of the very old. The rest of the villagers are left muttering and looking around in confusion as the four dash off into the night after Rochelle.

Rochelle has taken off at a trot with skirts lifted high to free herself up to run quickly after the two forms. "Wait! Why are you running away?!" Her voice is an anguished cry as she rushes into the night. There is some sort of lilting response from ahead but the night swallows its meaning.

Tasanto can keep Rochelle barely within the dim reaches of his torchlight as she quickly leaves the clustered buildings of the town and heads south into the fields. Dolgrin and Menik manage to keep up with the half-elf but Lem realizes he'll need to pick up the pace if he wants to stay with the others.

It takes hardly any time at all to cross the field and as Rochelle approaches the treeline she doesn't slow her pace at all but heads towards what you see is a small dirt path that lies ahead.

"Oh damn these well-intentioned, yet stubby legs," Lem says as he drops stealth in an effort to keep up.

"I know the feeling, friend," Dolgrin says to Lem as he races to keep the pace with the others.

Tasanto continues chasing after the woman at his best speed.

The narrow trail winds through woods to quickly open upon a small clearing filled with marker stones. This is clearly the village's graveyard. The ground is disturbed in spots as if someone has recently been digging and bones are scattered around. Though it is hard to judge without a better examination of the bones you think that some of them are human.

At the edge of Tasanto's torchlight two children, filthy and bedraggled, crouch and warily watch.

"You shouldna come, mama. And you shouldna brung them."

The boy stares past Rochelle to the grouped adventurers. "He won't mind if we play with them, will he?"

Rochelle emits a wordless cry and rushes forward arms spread to gather up her children in her embrace.

"Your children are not looking too clean, or friendly. Lets have a better look. We might have to grab them up and take them back to the village." Moving up swiftly between her and the children, he brings the torchlight to full strength upon them.

Dolgrin walks swiftly to Rochelle's side and quietly lays a hand on her forearm. "It looks as if your children are in desperate need of a bath," he says to the grief-stricken mother. "What do you say you go on ahead and draw and heat the water while we gather them up and take them to you? You know how they hate their baths!" he ends with a not-too-convincing laugh.
