Next round, kasia puts herself in position and stabs with her trident from 10ft.

@Cloony
@Lormo
Mosi manage to crunch something on the zombie, though its groan remain unchanged regardless.
Alright. Time for another hit, then.
Next round.
Kasia keeps any zombies at 10ft, and pokes with her three-pronged trident.
Lormo took small step to east, trying to find a better location for sliding blow on undead legs, making it fall.
But zombie used opportunity and landed solid fist on elf head.
It was undead's mistake, because attack make him fall prone, leaving his chest open to other hits.
Baelir seings the heavy morningstar and feels his attack hit home. Unfortunately for him, the creatures seemed a bit more resistant than he thought.
"I may have to resort to another weapon, will a dagger work? While weaker, the blade can also be used to slice."

"By all means do."
Cloony's eyes shift between the various zombies coming at the group...
The cold ray hits Albawar in the back by accident. "Watch where you aim that, gnome!" he yells.
The zombie he was fighting goes for another attack.
He stumbles like and failed to hit him.
Lormo's zombie makes an attempt to get up.
Another zombies attacks Kasia and Baelir.
Baelir drops his morningstar and draws his short dagger from his boot provoking 2 attacks of opportunity before swinging his dagger using the cutting blade.
"Maybe I can get an edge in with this!"
"Albawar, behind" Lormo gets dwarf's attention to zombie rising unprotected, behind his back.
Meanwhile, elf jumped into opening between Kasia and warrior and swing his sap again.
Same mistake was done by another zombie: his attack went higher and Lormo pulled his leg up.
Smelling flesh and bones, loudly hit a deck's wood.
Cloony makes a gesture of "oops", as his ray apparantly hit Albawar in the shoulder.
He moves slightly SE and aims a ray at the zombie Baerlir is fighting.
@Cloony
Baelir manages to land a strike that is deep enough to cause one zombie to collapse.
The poor tripped tries to get up, but it keeps on get hammered on.
The other two zombies continues to attack on Albwar and Baelir respectfully.
Albawar Hp = 5/14
They're getting more ferocious after their buddy died(?).
Sick of having to deal with these creatures, Albawar drops his chain and draws his waraxe and fends of the attacking zombie.
Chops its head clean off.
Baelir steps to the side of the zombie before cutting with his dagger.
"Such a tiny blade can be such a cruel weakness. Taste my blade!"
Kasia lashes out at one of the remaining zombies.
"Let me help you", said Lormo moving back in defensive stance.
His mighty slam was unable to reach nimble elf.
And he moved around one that Baelir was fighting with.
"OK, close on him" he said, trying to provide a better hit for the ally. Zombie turned angry eyes to him and tried to slam Lormo, but defensive stance saved him from a might blow.
Because of jumping and blocking tricks, professor failed to land a blow at creatures leg.
Cloony casts ray of frost at the zombie Mosi and Kasia is attacking.
It finally kills that zombie.
The last zombie attacks Baelir.
Albawar goes at the last zombie
All zomibes are dead now.
"They are...dead? I mean, dead dead, dead as in not getting up again ever again."
He picks up a loose piece of wood and throws it at a zombie's head to see if there is a reaction.
"Nothing....well that is a relief. Speaking of which, is everybody okay?"
"That was dangerous..." Lormo loudly exhaled. "Albawar, your axe was valueable as never. You all made impossible during that fight... Probably, I need to take my sword back if this place has lots of creatures like that..."
After couple moments, elf forgot the fight investigating the nature of those zombies.
"Mmm... That's interesting..." he was whispering as usually, when working.
Kasia retrieves sacred salts and begins putting the corpses to rest.
Baelir picks up his morningstar and wipes his dagger on a zombies clothes.
"Mum always said make sure you bring a dagger or blade of some kind. And a towel. Not so sure about the second one but a blade has been very handy. Unfortunately I only have the one dagger so if we ever come across another set of these undead I can't loan this out."
Cloony looks surprised at the tall half-orc.
"A towel you say? Was she referring to the sweat one produces after intense combat by any chance? Or perhaps using it as an improvised whip."
"Why would one bring a towel? There are many mossy trees fit for such purposes."
Lormo also was surprised to hear about towel, but he didn't wanted to admit that he doesn't know, why the towel is so important.
"Let's check out, what useful we can find here. Please, do not spread wide, in case there is another zombie hiding behind doors or in crates."
Cleaning and sheathing his blade, Baelir picks up his morningstar and frowns at the balance.
"Aside from the obvious uses, a towel has a lot of uses. You can rip it up to make bandages, use it to make a small blanket if it gets too cold and you are without your sleeping gear or sleep on top of it if the ground is a bit harder than you'd like, fold it up like a bindle and carry things around with it, soak it in cool water and wrap it around a burn, the list goes on and on. We shouldn't dawdle for too long or else we will lose the light of day."
Zombies do note carry any weapons and the clothes they carry have degraded to the point that it is barely holding on the seams.
Inside does not look much better what with the wood been rotted away from the seawater. The some of the boat's bottom have give way and anything that have been there would have fallen into the sea.
Despite that, you find lockers and crates that, while also fallen apart, kept the valuables safe.
You found the following things: handaxe, studded leather, a healer's kit, 6 rations, a tent, rope silk 50ft in length, a fishing net, and a longspear.
"Great find. Probably we should split the load as we swim back. I can take something light, like fishing net and healer's kit. "
"I will carry the rations and rope along."
Cloony rolls up the rope and hangs it over his shoulder, before stacking the rations into his pack.
Kasia adds a the extra healer's kit to her pack.
I wonder if taking a dive below would reward us with anything.
You don't see anything of note in the waters below. There are a few pieces of wood and metal here and there, but nothing like tools and the such.
"Let's get back to shore" said Lormo, descending into water, "We need to return back to camp and check out, what's happening there. If you will start drowing, don't panic and do not sink your stuff. Just give me a note and I will come to help you."
"Hold on. Let us check below." kasia indicates the hole leading into the bay below.
"I have not gotten a light spell ready, sorry. Anybody else have one prepared?", Cloony looks at the others, his bodylanguage hinting at "hidden things, let's go see".
Baelir lifts up the tent before looking at the spear or net. Food was more important so he grabbed the net.
"Anything else of value in those lockers? Perhaps if we can access it, the captain's quarters will have some waterproof cases with maps or just shiny objects."

"Ok, first Kasia took the rations, now you. No problem, Baelir, you can have a net! But, I am not so weak, so please, allow me at least take a longspear back to camp" jokingly Lormo gave net to halforc and took a weapon.
Without further comment, Kasia casts light on her trident, sheds her bags, and dives below.
Trying not to hit himself, Lormo descended to water and started to swim carrying longspear in one hand.
Kasia still has not find any thing that looks like it came from the ship or be any of use. There's alot of sea life though.
K returns the the ship dripping wet and prepares to swim ashore.
"It is glorious down there. However, I fear there is nothing we are looking for below. Might I suggest this would be a suitable campground? Now, I am no engineer, but it would seem the cannibals would have difficulty following us here. Could be unstable, though."
Baelir tests his weight on a floorboard, hearing the squeak he shakes his head.
"I do not trust this, I'm a bit too heavy for these worn out boards. Granted I'm a bit heavier than most of you."
He gives himself a little laugh. After all what fun is life if you cannot laugh at yourself.
