Kulan: Knightfall's Heroes of Carnell Game [IC]

[Knightfall]

Phar hesitates at the zombie's disturbing words and then moves to flank it. He draws back his sword and makes his best slash.

The strike from his blade severs its head and the rest of its unlife. It collapses in a heap.

The sounds in the corridor soon grows silent.

His sword still at the guard stance, Quinn's tilts quizzically.

"What did that thing say?" he asks incredulously.

 

[JustinCase]

"The dead don't speak," Caerth says confidently. It is unclear if he has heard the zombie talk, but he acts as if there could be no discussion about this. The large half-orc examines the bodies before declaring, "We should burn these to make sure they stay dead."

 

[Scott DeWar]

"Well, THAT one, It said they will return - stronger. I swear it on my blood."

 

[JustinCase]

Caerth looks concerned. "Even more reason to burn them, then."

 

[Scott DeWar]

The gladiator immediately starts looking for things to help with the burn. . . including old clothing on the other bodies.

Caerth looks concerned. "Even more reason to burn them, then."

"Agreed," Lorien chimes in.

The gladiator immediately starts looking for things to help with the burn. . . including old clothing on the other bodies.

Lorien helps Quinn and Caerth gather the zombies back on the stone bridge along with the tatters of clothing that fell off several of the zombies as they attacked. Quinn finds old shrouds in the coffins in the crypt that are dry as bone. He doesn't find any sign of the key they are seeking. It is easy enough to get a spark to alight the shrouds and soon the zombies are burning on the bridge. Bits of the dead centipede are dumped onto the fire while the rest of what remains is pushed over the edge of the bridge into the chasm.

As the zombies burn, smoke billows across the chasm, swirling around. A slow updraft takes most of the smoke to the top of the chasm. The smell is awful and visibility drops near the fire. Lorien covers his mouth and nose and backs off the bridge back towards the main corridor and the side corridor to the crypt.

 

[Scott DeWar]

Quinn backs up too, exclaiming as he does, "Arrg! they are worse to burn then when they were still moving!"

 

[Thateous]

Aureus' eyes water as she presses hard against her nose and retreats to fresher air.

"Unnatural," Caerth mutters, referring both to the undead and the smell. Once the half-orc is convinced the zombies are sufficiently gone, he turns away and addresses the others. "Rest first? Or find the key first?"
