You can see the confusion in their faces, and the hunger. Kael lets loose a bolt of eldritch energy that slams into the chest of the first ghoul. It looks up at him, as if seeing the humans before him for the first time.Jovik dances forward, goblin hook in hand, and slams it with a gut wrenching crunch into the chest of the injured ghoul. It buries hilt deep, sending thick black blood that stinks of iron and mud over the hand of Jovik. He recoils, pulling his blade free, and watches the ghoul slump forward into the mud. Its limbs spasm once, and then settle.Danth leaps from hiding toward the nearest ghoul, Crimson Dawn's fiery blade blazing reddish-gold like the early morning sun! The blade quickly descends on the foul undead beast with all the strength in the cleric's arm, slicing and burning flesh and muscle with terrible ease! The thing reels back, its face rent asunder, bone gristle and worse showing below. The magical flames from Crimson Dawn engulf the head of the ghoul, and it staggers a single step, then a second, its arms raised as if trying to put out the flames. You watch the flesh on its face melt away, its eyes popping and rolling from its sockets. A long, slow scream leaks from its throat as it finally collapses to the ground.Jokad is coiled like a snake ready to strike, but with nothing to aim his aggression at. He lets out a roar of frustration and sends his blade crashing through one of the corpses, splitting it in two. His faces is not entirely happy as he looks at the others, as if accusing them of stealing his toys!The noise of the combat and death seems to have agitated the scarecrows. You hear mewling and screaming from them. Some plaintive cries, others hungry.</blockquote>
