"Well, it was the power of the Binding Word that did the raising, technically. My fooling about was merely the trigger." The old man looks glum. "But there's no practical difference, I suppose."

Mustapha had been talking to one of Yargos' companions as they made their way back across town. On hearing Yargos' tale, he arched one eyebrow and said 'it seems the rumours of fog-shrouded corpses walking the Puddles was not so fanciful after all, my friends'.
Without a trace of irony, he continued 'perhaps once the matter is resolved and we are safely ensconced once more in the Pinnace, Lerissa might like to recount the tale of the merchant of Kari to Master Yargos. If, that is', he favoured the dark-skinned woman with the merest of nods, 'she can recall the salient points of the story...?'.
The Brass Man gave Leaf a pointed look, before resuming his conversation with the old man.

"You say they will not stop till they complete thier mission?" the giant asks walking barefoot once again through the Puddles.
"Then even if we were to stop them it would happen again how do yopu lay to reat the dead?" Leaf's confusion is only added to by Mustapha's referral to the sad tale he told at the Pinnace.

"The codebook contains the master signal to halt the invasion, which would presumably send the restless dead of the Silent Tide back to their repose."

You are just two or three minutes from the Piper as Abraxis speaks these words. Yargos begins to speak again:
"Unfortunately, I have no idea where Nessian keeps his headquarters these days. I'd suggest we find Grandmaster Torch; it's possible he could . . ."
The old man stops mid-sentence just as all of you notice a red light flashing from atop a building deeper in the city to the North. The flashes are definitely not random - the pattern is distinctive.
Yargos becomes quite agitated. “Nessian!” he shouts. “He’s signaling Black Echelon - the undead! Six flashes of red - I remember that signal . . . By the gods! That’s the granary! Nessian has sent those monsters to poison the granary! C’mon! I don’t know how, but we’ve got to stop them - we’re the only ones who know what’s happening.”

As his companions began to run after Yargos, Mustapha turned to the old man's friends and said 'hurry back to the Piper - you should be safe there'. Then he followed the others through the rain slick streets.
