(YBA) Kalath in Wicht's Lair III.

"Very well then follow me, you watch my back and I'll watch yours. Watch out Ooga here we come!"

Very cheerfully inded the spry little man heads out of the crypt and into the night.

Though the fog is as thick as ever, Rettburg walks as one who knows where he is and where he is going.

It does not take him very many minutes to lead Kalath onto the "Street of Tombs." The two men follow the cobbled stones for a way and then the small man indicates that they are leaving the path and heading towards a poorly lit tomb off of the path to the right.

A single torch illuminates the words above the door, "Bread of Bones and Wine of Blood."

"Charming isn't it," says Rettburg, "I believe the outer room is guarded by half a dozen zombies. After you..."
 

"There seem to be a good deal of zombies everywhere around here...."

Kalath heads into the crypt, ready to fight.

ooc: Also, Wicht, I was looking through the old threads of this adventure (trying to compile a log of where I've been) and I noticed that the description of where Wicht's big tomb is was contradictory. In the first thread, you first say that I travel east from the big tree to reach the crypt, and that I pass the well on the way... then you say that after leaving the crypt the tree is southeast of me, the crypt is west of me, and the well is east of me! Could you help me resolve this?

oops - my bad :)

As you go west through the cemetery - you first pass the tree, then the well, then Wicht's tomb. And all of these are northwest from the entombed children. I obviously was not thinking when I typed you headed east from the tree in the first place, that should have read west.

Rettburg shrugs and smiles. "The boss likes zombies for some reason - though as you get deeper into the compound there are more demons and less undead. The zombies mostly hang out here in the cemetery."

The door opens and true to Rettburgs word, there are six zombies standing guard.

The zombies attack the two companions and Rettburg attacks one of the zombies.

ooc: Just to get this straight: Is the big tree itself northwest of the children's crypt? Then farther west is the well, then Wicht's tomb?

Yep, thats basically right.

Kalath and Rettburg both strike the fourth zombie and it takes 2 hits total. One of the zombies manages to get 1 hit on Rettburg, and another gets 1 hit on Kalath.
