her,and the others waited for her to make sure it as safe as they made their way through a great hall.The pantgrams layden on the walls were made of a metal that was bound to the bricks,creating the feal of a damper of evil’s control over the area,and leaving questions as to what the intentions of this unkown counsel they were meeting with were.The door slammed open as they stepped closer and violet light cast itself from the room.There inside a cauldren which was shedding the lite was stood next to by a black robed being,it’s face was a mirthy colour of blue,fake in it’s material form,almost as if a costume was in effect.“thee who seek to bestow Zintrin with a gift-thee who walk the undead temple,you’re task now lay before you”it spoke in a scolding ghostly way,and they stepped not too close,and stood in shock.“what deeds are we asked to perform,why does the goddess of undead wish those that serve her at the place slayne”Marty made a quick question,in favour of getting the issue’s resolved and not showing any weakness to this zombiesh being.“there are those that have passed into this plane that should not have,the days of use of this place are no more,to begin a new light for the innocent,and return the souls that serve Zintrin,all of these ethereal monsters must be sent with blessing to go to their rightfull place…..a gift for this-a potion of ‘divine’ dispelling-this passed through these unwanten will send them away-and when the lost are no more,you will receive a gift from the great Zintrin”The hollow room resounded in the blunt words of the agent,echoing off the walls like a stale warning for those who were in danger,yet the young adventurers remained calm,and considered the offer with a great amount of interest.Suddenly a flask intergated into the hand of the speaker,and magically fluid from the cauldren flew into it in a backwards waterfall,and passing a hand over it a cork slapped into place and the offer was held forth to them.“very well we accept,though the passages of this temple remain a mystery to us,how can we find our way to ensure that every ‘unwanten’ is sent on it’s way?”Marty stated stepping towards it,and taking the flask quickly in a retorted snatch.“the some of their anger will bring them to thee,go from the first hidden door at the temples first concecration room,there each passage will open the eyes of those who go in distaste,and you’re goals shall be met”it responded and began to float away towards the back of the room,when a swirling portal appeared,stiffling with flickers of electrcity.“---hail Zintrin…-and thanks strange-“Morigin got involved,keeping themselves assured that they had made the pact.“revealed to this hall will be all who pass beyond the portal-you may begin through this,a show of good faith in our agreement”with that it turned and swept through it,disappearing instantly,no sound or flurry of movement once in contact with the magic.“ok-we’re set-you really had it in for us Marty,a few ruins,and gold….obeying the commands of Zintrin is what we have to thank you for now”Taiken stated,as each of them were now letting some of the liquid unto their swords,and with that they stepped through the portal.They were sent immediately to the hidden door in the floor,and it was set open,the stairs leading to the underground following.They walked through,torches in one hand weapons in the other-the glazen potion striffed across the swords for the inclement of dispelling the attacked unwantens.The hall stretched for a good distance then met with a a four way juncture,the path that led across from them,was older looking,and had lichen and a musty essence.This contemplated changeover area was soon a very uncalmly hold-over.The thunder of running beasts,one from each hall rasped the area,making virtually shaking bites with the galloping like claims.They took to the center and stood back to back,set for the enemy that was dashing in at each hall.The sight of dire-wolves made angrier than their alive forms through seething undead impurity,and standing 6 ½ ft,made the rucus poundings answer as horrid a problem as they could have expected.Mif was in no place to stall for antics in this flurry,and as they desperatly swished across their fronts,trying to stay swipes and bites,the strength of the foe was nearly too,much and they may soon have dropped their swords.However using the pan,then the harp,which was floating before him before the attack,the angel appeared,then clouds formed and sent the furry of crushing drops of magi-bound spellwork,that smashed each wolf to the ground,and Marty and Taiken adavanced on one at the same time,Kliza and Morigin using the same method,and those two were slayne,though Marty was bitten on the leg in last respondancy,as he had gone for the neck,and was within reach for the attack.The validity of the potion held true,as soon there was a yelping call,and they began to disspaear,as a soul of some sort flaoted from the corpses that began to diffuse into a powder-these afterlife bodies were sent through the roof,and possibly even further in refinement to heavens own waiting respince.Mif Yatter was pounced on by the first to be undone from the spell,and fell forward into Morigin,who was turning about from the kill watching the strange spectacle,and nearly gouged the bard with sword set in front of himself,but stepping to the side,the blade striffed Mif with no damage,and skuttled further with a timed push and lent a gash into the wolf.Kliza quickly took action,as the other wolf was stayed by Marty and Taiken,and in good faith,for Mif was about to be slashed across the face,when suddenly the swordwork of the wild girl elf-cut off the front chin to paw of the sweeping arm,and the dire-beast yelped and spun on it’s hind legs and tried to tear a bite into Kliza’s shoulder.Morigin jumped on it,and set it off course,as it confusedly started to trounce and flay about,making way through a hall,as Morigin finally got his sword set for a puncturing cleft,and sending it in bloody mirths of driving force,the wolf yipped and turned to look about to it’s back,and fell over,the strange liquid of zombie-undead creations passing for blood spilling from it’s chest,the sword having been sent from entry to through  another section.Morigin,jumped away,wether it was dead or not,and ran to help finish the last.A loud triple growl-bark fused through the confines of the underground passages,as dancing in the light of the torches fallen to the ground,the last wolf was seen sprinting away –the 5 fighting friends,shaken and wordless,stood wondering what to make of the last enemy.As Marty turned to see what was needed for healing,and talk about the terror that had struck them,suddenly the wolf was dashing in,somehow not with thundering sounds this time,and he pounced on Marty as the others screamed,and Morigin grabbed Marty’s arm,but it was too late.The monster had ripped into the back of the thiefs skull,puncturing into it with several teeth,and began lifting him in the air,by the neck,as though one mighty swish,and Marty’s spine may be broken,neck snapped in the untelling power of the undead wolf.Though for some reason,the vicious strength of these beasts was easily not their same in intelligence,and moving finely,and with a touch of aim-they each spliced into it,ending it’s life before Marty was killed,and he fell to the floor as the soul passed beyond and the floorway was nothing more than a bunch of dry powder refuse,-calling to the beyond left in an offering like incense to be burned,or regents of strange preistly worth to be cast into an altar.They took some healing liquid,and realized that they only had 3 more uses,but in fcat Marty was with only one,they wound excrutiatingly painful,had been met with the leg damage,and though ok after the extra healing,they were in a situation of critical needs for healing.“don’t worry I could cast a healing tune for an entire army right now-the strange creatures we keep encountering are making my powers scar me from their resting place their so fearsome to win this battle-one more attack,and I may have to invoke a meditation time to strain away the power-it’s so strong”Mif stated in an assuring pompferatu-that the others only lightly believed.“the zombie with the unfriendly attitude was telling the truth,that at least is known.but how many of these preistesses as we had thought are actually replaced with 7 ft killer dire-beasts or golems or demons-that is what should have been asked when we had the chance”Taiken spoke in chagrin of this troubled attack,and looked at the amulet,in the way Mif had spoken his mind was assured that their safety through it was just as finely cited.“well I don’t think a splash of the cauldren’s Zintin special will do my instruments much good-so use a good bit for your weapons now-you hear”Mif said as they re-apllied the liquid,and they made their way taking the first hall’s course,opting for the more unspoiled route.“if it was gold we were after we should never have accepted,that’s what I say”Morigin stated as they made to a closed door.“you never know maybe goddess’s please mortals with money-we’ll be rich if we can live through this”Kliza said stepping aside from the lock and Marty used theivery skill and hacked it open.“I don’t think we can go back on a vow to Zintrin,so don’t thonk bout it,she might be watching for ll we knoiw”Taiken said as they found that the room,ws like a chambled version of the fire altar.“ok demonites,we know you’re style,die with honour or die painfully”Marty siad noting it’s resmblence and swashed the air looking at the place that was a podium,this time it was a round framed traingle,that held a dias in the center,which had ancient elven written on it.“the shallow forms of flesh mightier than those who shall be sent to the Abyss will clean the temple and hail the throne of Zintrin”Kliza translated,and in contenplation lit the torch she had found.It flickered alive,and cast a rainbow subterfuge about it,and following in a circle,it cast a ray towards another dias fascined to the right wall,it reflected the beam,that then fell to the first,and that one fell back,and a book was revealed underneath.“yes-brilliant Kliza,let’s see what we have”Takien took the book,and opened to the first page,a sketching of a statue of Zintrin was there,with writing in common.“the world is foresaken,only worship of the mighty Zintrin will bestow life,and only death will appeal to her-what is this an ignoramus philsosphers rantings,let’s see”Taiken flipped a few pages that had temple sketches,then another bit of writing revealed itself.“the forms of beasts too powerfull to behold the world of undead will turn to violent misbegotton scourges of all creation,should the preistess’s be allowed to summon these evils the land will die quickly and thoudands will fall to a curse”“that does it,we have really done it-Marty what are thinking,it’s you’re fault mostly”Mif stated,as they each felt an unsettled shallow take hold and slam them into a wall-the powers of the evils- maybe,were too much for them to vanquish.“ahhh who cares,if the fools had any idea of how to do this right they’d have been chosen by the great goddess,and now that we are the fools for the taking,all we can do is fight proudly and with certainty that this is fates design,-the strong shall previal-that’s what I say wealping bard-and there’s no more that can be-ok”Marty buffeted the fears with a strong leader type of ranting,and they knew their attitudes may just as well be better off listening to the proud theifs rally.“ok,there are some more rantings,their in Kliza’s special form-you look through it and we’ll watch your back”Taiken lent it to her,and she sat at a wall bench carved into place,and flipped through pausing every now and then with an open eyed reticince.             FREEING THE MIGHT    a mission</blockquote>
