Wendel was the only person nice to us when we arrived on Seagate Island two years ago. He allowed us to stay in "the abandoned shepherd's hut on the cliffs".[If the shepherd's hut is abandoned, I guess we weren't keeping sheep after all? Or the hut was abandoned but the sheep hung around? Or there's no sheep, forget the sheep; and we did what adventurers do, which is break into huts and steal shoes.]Wendel helps us carry Marla's body inside where he has a shrine full of dried leaves, flowers, and jars containing the ointments of his healing trade. He lays Marla down on a lion's pelt in front of the altar. [Presumably a mountain lion, not a savannah lion. Although this is D&D-world, so who knows.]After a few moments, Wendel says there's nothing he can do and he closes our mother's eyes. We break down in tears for the second time in as many passages.Turn to (2).</blockquote>
