Day 25

They ventured further in and met more undead. A deadly swordsman and two more mounted on
skeletal steeds.
This was the master of this barrow, a long dead fallen paladin, who was very angry at having his
rest disturbed. The fighting here was short but brutal and Wulfgar met his end, killed by a powerful
blow from the undead paladin.

Once the fighting was over Fredorick prepared the corpse and gathered together the loot and other
equipment.

Here a ghost manifested and said he was the ancient King Merthuvila. The tomb robbers had stolen
his bones and it was imperative they were returned. He also gave a powerful magic sword to
Fred.

They then followed a set of dog-legged stairs down to where they heard the voices of Xeron and his
henchmen breaking through a wall. The heroes tentatively tried to draw them into a fight on more
favourable ground, but now, with their numbers dwindling and tired from the last combat they had
to let Xeron go once he had completed his opening.

They cautiously followed the rough hewn tunnel that Xeron had found to a T-junction. One way, their
prey had taken, but the other lead to the surface, and this is the one they followed.

It came out at a very well hidden door in the graveyard. They decided to walk into King's Holm
and report what had happened.
