Anniston
The party assembles around the now bound figures of Finnian and Bertrand and begin to work their various actions upon them.
As their attention is focused..Anniston notes to the party of the approach of a figure slowly making it's way thru the mass of dead bodies some 100 feet away. Then the stalwart Anniston goes still and the party notices that a dark shadow has once again is building around the party. Raising his sword to the heavens Anniston crys "You shall not win...I have been born in the Light and by Light's Grace I know how to defeat you" Turning to the party he says.."I do not have time to explain...take my sword to the Fortress it will be your the key and your final defense"...then with one deft move before the party can comprehend or react Anniston draws his sword and raises it to the heavens "Thus do i give to the light all that is mine that darkness may be kept at bay. By Steel and Blood I defy thee darkness." Reversing his sword held high, Anniston then drives it point first into his heart and falls to the ground. With the body of Anniston hitting the ground there is a loud explosion of light and heat and the entire warded circle is fee at last of the Dark Prescence.
For Finnian and Bertrand

Vadric immediately goes to Anniston, checking for signs of life, but knowing that there will not be any. On his knees in the dirt and mud, he grasps his fallen companion's hands in his own, and begins to pray.
"Eternal rest grant unto your servant Anniston,
And let perpetual Light shine upon him.
May his soul
And the souls of all the faithful departed
Through the mercy and splendor of the Light
Rest in peace."
A single tear runs down the knight-priest's cheek as his finishes his prayer, and remains kneeling, now in silence.

Feeling the explosion through the ground, the hooded figure (about 5'4") stops in place, about 90 feet from the spell cloud. Moving a steel shield to the left arm in front of the silver lightning bolt symbol on the chest, the figure moves hands about before continuing walking towards the cloud.

I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
Vorian raises from kneeling position after securing Finnian and watches in fascination as Anniston makes his sacrifice.
"Wow, speak about living in Light! May the Light shelter you, valiant warrior, you will be honored among the living.
Friendship in life is not left to chance
Be sure of yours before you dance
Tradition requires the shedding of blood
Which in it’s flowing shall stem the flood
"
Vorian started toward the place where Anniston fell only to receive warning from Arrwuh that someone is approaching. Leaving fallen comrade to his friends Vorian readies Palisade, draws Orderbringer and advances about 30' toward the figure.
"Stop and identify yourself under the Light!"
At the same time Arrwuh fades from the world and approaches the figure from the side noting magical auras and absence of evil as he goes. He holds position about 20' in front and 20' to the left of Vorian.

Vadric glances up at Vorian's cry to the newcomer. Seeing that Vorian has the situation in hand, the cleric turns his attention back to his fallen friend, reverently placing Anniston's hands upon his chest, and then taking a moment to close the man's eyes. Standing, Vadric
turns to his companions. "We must build a cairn. We cannot leave his body here like this."
