It didn't take very long to pack up the Sentry equipment. The wails were becoming gradually louder. I shuddered as we lined up and performed a kit check. back home the undead were a terrible thing indeed, and apart from a few skeletons, I had yet to 'meet' the Western Undead. We followed the wailing to a tunnel that was pitch black inside, carefully yet slowly we entered, lighting up our torches. It was then that we were attacked by another horde of harpies and this time the headless ones were with them! After taking care of our attackers, we noticed an expensive looking and apparently abandoned pair of trousers ...
The horrors of the tunnel didn't last long however and we were soon out in the open air again. Our enemy now seemed to be hordes upon hordes of skeletons. Scouts for the Liches no doubt, as suggested by Jenifer. We hacked, shot and slashed our way through the pathetic creatures, becoming rather confident in our skills. That is when we reached the Lair.
The ancient rusted doors groaned in agony as we edged them open enough to slip in, eyes wide, adrenalin rushing and weapons ready, we advanced. Huge booming voices seemed to be warning us to go back. Voices that apparently came from nowhere!
Not easily deterred, we formed up and headed in. The Liches proved to be rather, tough. More than we had to drag our comrades outside and stick some smelling salts under their nose. It was during one of these many assaults upon them that I was bitten. Filled with rage, we took stock of the situation, reassembled and went in for a final showdown. And won.
After we got back to Cove, I apparently took very ill. It seems the bite had affected me more than I was aware. As this report shows, the Churchman and Guards there must have done something right, for I am still very much alive.
