CLERIC!” he yells suddenly knowing what he had.  The vampire tears up through the earth and struggles to remove the sword from its stomach.  The Wolverine moves away causing the druid to nearly fall off as he struggles with the reforming vampire.  Black sands grabs the vampire and tugs him towards the sunlight.  Being careful not to be overheard he whispers “turn me.”  The vampire ignores him.  Somehow the ½ giant and the vampire are at a deadlock.  Not moving into the darker area nor into the light.  The Wolverine grabs and begins to tug.  It becomes a tug of war with the vampire being the rope.  “turn me dammit.”None hear it due to the sounds of combat.Vale arrives and castes Searing Light and ends the conflict instantly as the vampire burns and crumbles into the swamp.Taskerdoo holds the wooden sword and they begin to wonder what kind of situation they have gotten themselves into.“thankyou thankyou thankyou  no more evil no more bad thankyou thankyou thankyou” Taskerdoo hears within his mind.  He blocks it out.Looking at some trees they see a means to climb the tree and using rope reach the door.  They hope it is not locked or trapped.It is not and the rogue is first through the door.“ARRRRGH!”Sharshek rushes to the door.“Hi.  Everything is fine here.  Just cleared my throat.” Says the rogue laughing.  Sharshek considers throwing him into the swamp.  Instead he helps the others into the doorway including a Dire Wolverine that has a great deal of trouble leaping, snagging then scrambling into the doorway.  It gives the doorjamb a bite once up.</blockquote>
