Sounds legit. Chef gets working on the lift and taking everyone down the shaft.
The lift takes the party down deeper, but they feel like they are indeed going in the right direction for there is another grave. This time they see what looks a ton like the guy you met earlier this must be his brother.
"This one... he looks very familiar. This must be the brother." Anhur informs everyone.
He isn't heavy he is the brother.
Chef vanishes into the shadows so he can shank when the fight starts.
"Ahh reckon ah see a pattern developin here. "
On his turn activate Kirin style. Open fire. Deadly aim, rapid shot, manyshot.
miss
probably a miss though
add +1 to hit and +1 to each damage die if within 30'.
maybe he's a nice guy...
The body will slowly get up and tilt his head before speaking, hey...did my brother send you? I bet that bastard did. Jealous that I had his woman before I died.
Ah, women and money. Classic cause of fratricide.
"Kill it with fire?"
Gerold looks around surprised that they haven't actually started fighting yet.
Yep we are here to keeell you again.
Gerold can't help but add in. "Unless you have a better offer."
"Been working for us so far, why change in mid ride?"
"What is there between you and your brother so strong that it remains in undeath?"

It is all sibling Jealousy really. I dunno what he told you but it is all because he has been jealous that I am the better brother.
"Hmm... naaaa. Not interested."
Doran presses his hands together and breathes through them, launching a blast of fiery death at the zombie.
"Back to the grave with you!"
"Lika Ah said why change?"
activate Kirin style
assuming there is still a target present
rapid shot, many shot, deadly aim
miss likely
"That seems justified."
Anhur rushes in for a Crane Style attack!

I guess we must keep in good graces with our original employer.
Chef tosses a knife at the zombie's back.
"It is what it is, you see..."
dmg
Floid takes a shot and reloads
Gerold let's the skeleton go before he does just to see how he reacts.
He takes all the hits grunting with his arms down, he looks at you and chuckles I knew you would believe that jerk a small trickle of blood comes out of the corner of his mouth before he falls dead.
"He wasn't dead?" Anhur questions.
"I don't reckon I understand that family. Well let's get a movin on. "
Well he is now if he wasn't before. Chef will help drag the guy back to show off to the other brother.
"Is that ghost blood?"
It is...um...I am the GM what I say goes!!!
Anyways as the party trops on the little brother appears, Many thanks guys, I have a gift you can take, He holds out a large bag of gold and then a chest appears as well. now I can rest in peace.
Many thanks, Mon amie. Chef opens the chest and counts the gold before turning to the others.
I will just nip off to town to upgrade my weapon with the voucher. Chef does that to upgrade his other shortsword to +1!!!!!111!!!!!
Then he comes back for moar adventure
Inside the chest you find
1) Masterwork Sling staff, halfling : 320gp [+]
2) Arcane Scroll, Stone shape {4th/7th} : 700gp [+]
3) Potion of Protection from evil {1st/1st} : 50gp [+]
4) Arcane Scroll, Major image {3rd/5th} : 375gp [+]
Gerold picks up the potion of protection from evil.
"Anybody mind if I take this?"
"Of course not. I do not require it." Anhur brags.
Be my guest. Now, shall we continue on our quest for epic loot?
"Questing for epic loot!"
Chef scouts ahead as the party continues their quest.
Anhur scouts behind, counting on Chef to take the brunt of the traps.
Chef leaves one trap for Anhur, so he doesn't feel neglected.
The party continues on, they are finding nothing of interest until they see a man walking around beaten and dirty looking. He seems woried but also like he knows the twist and turns of this place. Maybe he can give you a short cut.
"Say, perhaps this fellow could give us a shortcut." Anhur whispers to his companions.
For some strange reason, I feel the same way. Let us greet him, and y us, I mean Anhur.
Anhur approaches, awkwardly posing like some kind of cross between a crane and a snake, which, as one might expect, seems to hamper the conversation.
"Ho there, strange man. You look like you know where you are going. Perhaps you can tell me where I am going as well?"
Floid tips his hat to the new stranger.
The man will raise his eyebrow, Aye I will tell you a short cut but in turn would you perhaps buy these two amulets off of me. They are unknown to me but when the two are worn something interesting happens I will part with them both for about 1000 total.
"Chef! This man has something to sell you."
"Not if I buy it first!"
Gerold pulls out the 1000 gold and hands it over for the necklaces.
They are two matching plane amulets you can detect magic if you want to find out the properties or just put them on. They are not cursed though from what you can tell.
Many thanks travelers. If you head straight down this tunnel there will be a slide, take it down and you will land in the holding chamber of one of the poor souls that calls out to be freed constantly. If you can free their soul than they will open the passage for you that will lead to dragons keep and you can scale it to kill the bastard that imprisoned us here.
"That is the short way?"
