A trail of fresh blood marked their passing. Nary a one of them was fit to handle a lone orc much less the traps, magic, constructs, and possible hordes of humanoids still down in the tomb. Besides, the spellcasters were low on magic. Darian, Alya, and Sully had exhausted their available spells for the day. Fiddle and Vlad could barely walk. They rested, healed, tended their arms and armor, and all the other things adventurers do when not getting into trouble. Fiddle babbled on and on about what he was going to do next."You don't suppose," Alya interrupted, "you could give us time to think? I'm half convinced Darian's fears about liches are not unfounded. Of course, other undead come to mind. Carl mentioned the death of their cleric to a wraith. That would mean one tomb here has at least two wraiths now. Or what about a mummy or ghost or spectre?""I'll see what I can do," Darian promised. "Lathander is with me.""I sure hope so," Sully added. "We are here on a matter of faith."After recovering the party again left their campsite and horses and plunged down into Amarak's tomb. The large rope was gone. And the tracks of several humanoids, possibly orcs by Fiddle's reckoning, led away from the spot. Fiddle broke out the climbing kit. Darian made sure it was secure."You scout ahead Fiddle," Alya advised. "I'll make it so you vanish for 6 minutes.""Six minutes, six minutes, six minutes, Dougie Fresh you're on," A song popped into Fiddle's head as he descended. It helped him keep track of his time. Fiddle followed the tracks. Three orcs. They returned to the old room according to his guess."All's clear," Fiddle yelled back to the others from the bottom of the rope.Sully fluttered down in pixie form. Darian, Alya, and Vlad made it down in succession."If you see a lizardlike creature where I formerly stood don't attack," Alya told everyone. "I've gained a few spells and I'm afraid they might surprise you. Let's get the shriekers first. They were guarding something.""I agree," Sully nodded. "Can you silence the area, Darian?""How about an arrow?" Fiddle chirped. "Alya can shoot one of them and we will finish them before the spell wears off.""Okay," Darian accepted the responsibility.The party traveled back to the shrieker lair.</blockquote>
