[QUOTE="kinem, post: 6025841, member: 24234"] You see Sir Rand, Dame Winter, and Steward Wingate also being roused. The former two don their armor and head out to the wall, while the Steward (being no warrior) heads downstairs. Sir Sam Ram, as his room is on the lower level, is no doubt already out there. The keep is a bustle of activity, as recently sleeping men don their armor and servants, most with little idea what to do, gather and chatter. The outer wall at 30' tall is almost as high as the 35' tall guard towers. The moon is a slim crescent, when the clouds don't block it. From your journey here, you know that the new moon was about two days ago. Each guard tower now has 6 archers in it. You let your eyes adjust, and soon you can make out figures around the keep in the dim light. When Weiss tosses his stone, it illuminates a small area. The figures seem to be skeletal or at least very thin from what you can tell, and they keep a distance from the keep of at least 500', though if they are also in the woods some may be closer on that side. There are hundreds of them. An archer explains "They came out of the woods. At first we shot at them, but that didn't seem to do much, and it's dark and they keep their distance. We decided that it was a waste of arrows, at least until daylight comes. They have not shot back." [/QUOTE]
