Changing Of The Guard
Early Afternoon, Warm Clear
Outside
Gyb watches as the body of the unconscious Meinhardt is roughly carried away by the fleeing Skeletons while he makes his way back down to the lower level ledge in front of the slower Skeletons chasing him.
The red Priest takes the blow from Stobart in stride, but the blade of Bugs clearly sticks him where it hurts. With a look of pure hatred on his face, he holds his attack, pulling the hood of his red robes up over his head instead. As soon as he does this, he slowly starts to fade from view, not going invisible mind you, but......something else. "You maggots can cherish this little victory of yours, as I will remember you both and I promise my revenge will be far more painful."

Inside
Loyn rips apart a few more Skeletons at the cave mouth before finally falling to the remaining threats relentless and mindless attacks. 6 dam As the stubborn hero of the day drops to the cold stone unconscious, he morphs from the hideous beast he had been transformed into back to the cute, cuddly dwarf everyone knows and loves, a hint of stale dog biscuit remaining on his now labored breath.
One of the three remaining Skeletrons is brought down by the archers, leaving only a single monster remaining where a makeshift bone army once threatened to overrun the party.
In a defensive retreat, Daliedhur chases after Tammuz, who just entered the doorway where the fire trap exploded. The Mummy Cat pounces upon its target, biting the elf on the back of his leg hard enough to cause him a minor wound, 2 dam but isn't effective enough to stop him from getting through the door and slamming it shut behind them both. Inside the room, the ugly man in the plague mask is standing in the back corner between what looks like a pair of dead bodies chained to the wall. He is chanting and waving his arms, causing the pair of bodies to squirm and move, as if they are trying to free themselves from their chains. There are tables, shelves, and barrels lining this room, some of them also containing bodies. One particularly ghastly experiment has a pair of figures lying on tables with probes and wires sticking out from their heads, connecting them both to some horrible looking apparatus. Charging at the masked figure, Tammuz appears shocked when he recognizes these two bodies as people he has dealt with in the past.
Rushing back down the hallway filled with dead Gnolls and defeated monsters, Keya arrives inside the room with the frightening Mummy Cat just as the door is slammed shut. The Cat hisses wildly and appears about to leap upon its next victim for an attack. "WWRRRRRAAAARRRR!"
