"Run to the mausoleum! At least three wolves got the sentinels. We put down two wolves. Third is still on the loose and you are not safe out here on your own. Run!"

Mystie will keep Bubba right behind Captain Desarna as they return so she doesn't get ahead of her and lose sight.

"The captain should be safe inside the mausoleum," Mirra says, rather earnestly. "Wolves don't have opposable thumbs. Also, we constitute a larger pack than it does at the moment." she begins looking over Qalabash's shoulder. "Can you see the others?"

Qalabash shakes his head in response to Mirra's inquiry though her question seems to make him a little more steadfast in his watchfulness.

"No, I see nothing down there. If something is down there it isn't showing itself yet. Has Mystie returned with the good captain?"

He briefly glances back but quickly returns to staring down the stairwell.

~ Day 4 16:03 - Kingsholm Graveyard ~

Captain Desarna looked puzzled and jogged towards the Mausoleum as she looked around. With her breastplate, her speed was not as fast as Bubba.

"Wolves have always been around here. But they are not usually aggressive enough to attack my Sentinels. One lone wolf, I can handle."

There was no sign of the black wolf, or any other wolves for that matter.

Desarna slowed and took a brief look at your handiwork on each of the wolves. She paused again at the blood on the steps and stepped all the way inside. She knelt at the two bodies of her Sentinels and said softly, "I was afraid of this. I do not understand how this happened."

She glanced around the entrance room of the mausoleum taking in the blood.

"We don't know the how's or why's yet either, but we didn't want to take the chance of you being ambushed also."

Mystie dismounts Bubba and starts taking a good look at the woman and dwarf's wounds. She also compares the blood on the outside steps with that which was splattered around inside.

"Let me take another look at the bodies; perhaps I missed something . . ." Jonas kneels once more beside the bodies and looks more carefully at the wounds.

Qalabash Baram, human staff magus

[section]

Qalabash continues his watch at the stairwell. He peers down into the darkness and frowns. He doesn't like this; he would much rather be beneath the open sky than under the earth in a place where the dead were laid instead of properly having their souls released. He sighs.

"Northern customs are so strange," he mutters.

~ Day 4 16:03 - Kingsholm Graveyard ~

Jonas’s examination revealed that the two Sentinels were not killed by the wolves most likely. They were only mauled and chew on after death. One was bludgeoned to death, and the other was shot with arrows. The shafts broke off after the wolves began eating the bodies. They were obviously killed inside and it looked like the wolves had dragged them outside by the pattern of the blood trail.

On having this pointed out, Captain Deserna said, "This is disconcerting and very troublesome. I am glad we hired some experts to find out what or who is behind this."

"I presume you are going to continue your investigation down there. Shut and lock the door here and the wolves will not be able to eat the bodies."

"I will go back and collect two of my sentinels and I take these two back to town. Though, I am not expecting them to come back with two dead before I return. "

There was still nothing new seen or heard from down below as Qalabash kept watch.

Qalabash touches a knuckle to his forehead in a sort of salute to Captain Desarna.

"Very well, then, Captain. Safe journey to you. Watch out for wolves." Qalabash peers briefly down the steps before turning back to address his companions. "Shall we see what waits below?"

The big half-orc peers down the stairs over the old man's shoulder, and with a thoughtful look replaces his flail on the hook at his belt. He pulls his falchion from its sheath with a rasp. "Down we go, I suppose. It's been a while since I was below-ground."
