Aric looks at the others and then with an exasparated look shouts "Enough Talking! Lady Andaisin does not act like any lady I know and the local magistrate has a list of transgressions she has done!" Aric ducks around the corner pulling out a very large pistol along with some sort of cloth back which those who are familiar with the noble would correctly theorize to be the mask of the Red Raven. The Red Raven strides in front of Lady Andaisin and fires at her point blank

Development:
With their leaders gone, the remaining cultists scatter and the undead lose their focus. You and the remaining townsfolk manage to rout or destroy the stragglers. Ketrik, Boors, and Moise join you in rallying the survivors. Many are injured or sick, food is scarce, and the road ahead is very dangerous.

Ketrik pulls you aside after the long morning, the dirt on her face streaked with lines from sweat and tears. “We’ve packed
what we can salvage. We have only three carts left; some things will have to be left behind so we can carry the wounded. It’ll be slow going, you know. The three of us are the only proper guards left here. The rest of these people are farmers, mostly. Maybe a few are militia members, but none are prepared for a march.” Ketrik looks over her shoulder at the smoldering village. “I hope we live to see better days.”
