Emerald surreptitiously peers over the side of the outpost to see what the zombies end up doing. There is more than a dozen of them, and they break off from each other, a few heading towards the forest, while others wander around the ruins of the town.
 
Emerald sees a new person enter the pack, and with a shock realizes it’s the raisin-like body that was in the basement of the church.
 
“Fair Lady, what is happening? I was having such a lovely nap when your roar roused me.” The corpse says in a raspy voice.
 
“My apologies for waking you sir, but it seems we have an intruder.” The large cloaked undead says, standing a little higher and gazing all around.
 
“Oh, that would explain why my key is gone.” The new body says, holding up the cut chain that Emerald sliced, “As is the holy book.”
 
“An intruder and a thief.” The one called Lady Elegance says looking down at the smaller corpse with a slight growl.
 
“Shall we alert Lord Sepulcher?” The dried up husk of a body says.
 
“Yes, once we have something to report. I wish not to disturb him now however, he is working.”
