"Be glad to you show you that move. It does take a while to get it right, though. All clear here. Excuse me." He gallops back toward the northwestern road.
7 swings his axe at the zombie.
8 swings his axe at the zombie.
9 swings his axe at the ghoul and drops it.
Rhen continues to move to the North, "There be more out here or should I be headin' ta the west?" Rhen shouts
Drool runs down Niu's chin, as he stares straight forward with his mouth open in a rictus from the cry of pain he let out as the ghoul's touch overpowered him.
Concerned, Neb-en-toti pokes his head out of his satchel and pinches Niu to try to get him moving again. He feels Niu's relief that the ghoul has been vanquished.
Theys a few more west of town!
Zeira rides hard towards the west
The zombie attempts to break free of the vines.
Ranok, Lumberjack 16,17,18,19,20, Cirthana, <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::}xxx()o
Zombies 44,50,51, 52
With everything looking clear at her location, Cirthana heads to the northwest road where she last saw the sheriff.
Now that Ranok is able to move again, he takes a good look around. If there are any slight hills nearby, he will climb up on top.
"These undead could not have risen and come here on their own. Someone is controlling them."
Ranok scans the horizon for any suspicious characters.
Khonsu continues to tear at these creatures as he also continues to back up toward Ranok. He is ready to return to him.
Khonsu tears more flesh from the zombie. It staggers toward him. Ranok sees no signs of more zombies or anything else.
Zombie 50 slams at logger 7

Niu will ready an action to withdraw 30 ft south if the paralysis ends and the zombie is still alive.
Niu thinks about what he will do when he can move again. LOL.
Deldrin stays his steed. He has a good vantage point at this location.
Ziera charges further in using her horse to rush down.
Zombie 26 exits the entanglement and thorns fly at him.
Ranok, Lumberjack 16,17,18,19,20, Cirthana, Rhen <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::}xxx()o
Zombies 50,52
yep
using damage above
entangled
easier to dispose of outside. jej
Cirthana guides her mount to Sheriff Baleson.
"All clear to the east. How are we doing?"
"Just these three left and no more incoming yet. We have some wounded, but no fatalities."
"We need to gather the wounded together. I can heal many at one time if we do that. Some of the undead bite. One of my men was bitten. Anyone that was bitten needs to stay at the church until we know there are no infections. I can deal with that as well."
Gravagos and Sharvaros finish their ales and head outside to see what all the commotion is about. Verrin follows them.
"We need to find what sent these things. Where's the grave digger?" Ranok looks around, stretching his stiff neck. After looking at the churned up earth mad by the multitude of shuffling feet, he continues, "Nevermind. I think I can follow the trail."
Ranok blows his whistle for Khonsu, then begins to follow the trail.
Did I even finish breakfast?
After he begins walking, Ranok will hit himself with a clw wand a few times.
Zeira will have Festia bring her the necessary glaive and Warhammer as she then looks to her companion."Get the Townsfolk prepared for more possible undead. Make sure they begin to make shields and some sort of polearms to aid them to coordinate with the town's defenses and drill them, lives could be at stake." She says issuing orders as she then goes and heads to Ranok.
"How goes it Ranok?"She asks wondering what her orc blooded friend is up too.
Looking back to Zeira, Ranok says, "Ziera, good. We need to go kill whatever raised all these undead. It might be at the graveyard still...or headed this way. Go round everyone else up with that horse of yours. We have a necromancer to catch!"
About that time, Khonsu catches up to his person, looking none worse for wear.
Rhen grumbles at himself for being so slow and being attacked on all fronts.
Ranok sees zombie trails everywhere. They lead north.
Khonsu draws an AoO from the zombie as he obeys his companion.
Zombie 50 chooses a target 7,8,Niu
Zombie 52 continues to town.

Thankful that the paralysis wore off before the zombie could strike him, Niu takes a step back, draws his dagger, and then concentrates on the thorns to dismiss them.
Deldrin smiles at the cleric. "I will buy you a mead if you can kill that zombie before I do."
Initiative
Cirthana smiles and tries to take the jump on the quick sheriff.
Deldrin gets the jump on the lady and arrives just before her.
(19-20/x3)
He tips his hat for the lady. "Perhaps I will buy you one anyway."
Lumberjack 7 swings his axe at the zombie.
Lumberjack 8 swings his axe at the zombie and finishes it off.
You are on a horse. Move and attack is the way to go. Roll those dice.
End initiative.
Niu moves around, healing any loggers who were injured, as well as himself.
"Deldrin Baleson, have the wounded meet me outside Roots an Remedies. I can heal a great number at once if they are close enough to me. I will tell the men to the east. Save that wand, Niu of Osirion, for when I am not with you." She gallops eastward through town.
The sheriff yells to the western loggers "All wounded to Roots and Remedies now!" He heads to the northern group.
Gravagos, Sharvaros and Verrin move to the slain zombies and begin to inspect them.
Seeing that he isn't needed, Niu begins walking over to Ranok and the others, catching up as Ranok is healing himself and beginning to consider heading out.
Staying cautiously back from the rotting flesh, Niu eyes them suspiciously. "Do you suppose they are dead for real this time?"
Jim brings pitchers and mugs of ale outdoors. Ye yells "Free refreshments for the heroes of Falcon's Hollow."
Loggers 2,3 and 4 head to Roots and Remedies as the sheriff offers.
Loggers 17 and 18 follow Cirthana to the shop.
"Theys not from my graveyard. Not a one of 'em."
Replying to Niu's query in a scratchy and unnerving voice the grouchy mans says "Until someone or something raises them again. Sheriff, I recommend you burn every one of these things. I know a little about undead. I dabbled in necromancy after my wife passed. I do not pursue it like Cirthana suspects. I have no idea what power could cause an entire graveyard to raise. Something is very amiss here."
