Artemis grumbles about his robes, and lashes out with an electric arc between the two owl things.

electric arc DC18: 2d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 4) + 3 = 8

He then enters his arcane stance, charged with electricity.

2d20 ⇒ (14, 14) = 28

The zombie screeches as too-tuk slashes it. It resists the slashing damage but is weak to the critical.

Zher'myeh's bullets bounce off the creature, doing barely any damage.

Both creatures avoid the worst of the arc, which just sizzles on their tough dead skin.

    "Then let me try mine!" Nar stretches out his arm and a bluish gout of flame instantly freezes into a sharp and glowing icicle. The ice flies forth with incredible speed to strike at the Owlish Bear:

    ATK: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 if hit Piercing: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 1) = 7, Cold: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 4) = 5, Positive: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 3) = 5

    Nar recognizes this as a zombie owlbear. It still has the ability to screech — frightening enemies!

    The foul creature resists some of the piercing and all of the cold damage. However, it takes all the positive — and then some! Weak to Positive.

    Too-tuk hisses in pain as the owlbear wight tears at him with its claws and the paradoxically calmly states, "Too-tuk is badly injured. If this is Too-tuk's last stand, Too-tuk should make it count."

    Ghostly light flickers in Too-tuk's eyes as the other beast screeches at him. He stoically stands his ground long enough to raise his polearm high and slam it down toward the larger of their foes with focused power. Then he takes a step back to Graaxyn's flank and closer to Nar.

    Graax's luck fails him.

    Too-tuk returns in kind, cutting viciously at the larger beast! However, the owlbear stands yet…

    The dark passageways turn and turn… those of you skilled in Survival think you've gone in a circle and are nearing the area below Spring Hill again.

    Up ahead is the stench of Rot Graax smelled when you first entered the Warrens. Nothing for it but to head that way.

    You find something terrible there. A massive pool that covers this chamber shimmers dully in the darkness. Dozens of bodies gently bob up and down among the floating detritus. The drip of trickling water echoes faintly.

    Dozens of shoes, shirts, cloaks, packs, and other personal belongings float in this pond, alongside the bodies.

    This heap is the tragedy of Fiorna’s Faith — the refuse of a once-vibrant community.

    Map updated. let me know if you poke around and how you move through this area. Feel to make any checks you deem appropriate for an investigation if you are inspecting the bodies or searching them.

    It would take hours to get them out of the water and sort through the rest of the belongings. Let me know if you wish to do this. We'll say there is more time to explore after but the gruesome task would definitely cut into your day

    Artemis shrugs, "As you say."

    This is Jacra's spellbook. In addition to some common cantrips that clerics and wizards can cast alike, It contains transmutation abjuration ritual research focused on strengthening city walls to repulse undead. Research of great value to the people of Trunau — and the whole region.

    ⚰ ⚰ ⚰

    You move past the mass grave. You can hear the sobbing more clearly now. You must be close. Voices emanate from just up ahead:

    Please… please…

    Four pillars of soot-stained granite rise around a natural dais, atop which stands a slab of bloodstained stone. Black candles flicker in the darkness from atop this altar, a rusty ceremonial dagger resting between them. The shackles dug into the stone at the corners of the ritual site are empty, but it’s clear they’ve been used to bind many in Fiorna’s Faith as they met their gruesome end. On the far side of the chamber hangs a black velvet curtain.

    Pens are built into the walls of this room, each one sealed with wooden bars. Living hands reach out and hoarse voices call for help. These people look traumatized — they must have been forced to watch as friends and family were taken and transformed upon the unholy altar.

    HELP! HELP!

    No sooner do those calls fade than another sound can be heard, the clattering of bones clad in rusted mail! Five lance-wielding skeletons rise up. Their cold eyes glow in the flickering candlelight.

    You know skeletons resist cold, electricity, fire, piercing, slashing

    Out from behind the curtain strides the bloated corpse of a merchant. His skin, with its sickly green pallor, hangs from his frame as if too large for his body. His clothing must have once been elegant burial garments, but the tunic is now frayed and moldy, the cloak covered in blood. In one hand, he carries a massive farming scythe; in the other, he holds a large tome etched with blasphemous symbols. He opens his slack jaw and a cloud of dust issues forth with each tortured word.
