Yells can be heard coming from deep beneath the graveyard.

"Somebody help!"

One of the graves is open, and it appears to lead into a cavern below

A figure dressed in a white cloak may be spotted from afar, the cloak covers him totally, and the face may not be seen; however there is a symbol embrioded on the front side of the cloak.

A noise like something scraping against the floor seems to be coming from behind the figure

The figure sits down near Liles, and hisses something
"Ah the famousss Lilesss, we meet once more...do you feel like hunting sssome curssed onesss with me?"

The figure bends down and sniffs some of the soil around the graveyard "Sssomething iss wrong here"

Liles looks up and speaks

"Ah...Greetings... I'm only here to pick a spot, no skeleton butt kicking for me"

Looks confused as he listens

"Is it the Skeletons...Sounds almost living"

The cloaked figure bends down and sniffs the ground again

"If thisss iss a sskeleton; then it musst be very fresssh, I can ssmell flessh"

The figure swishes his tail around from under the cloak and gets up; he then moves over to examine the graves

"Why isss thisss one open? Tanora help usss, sssomeone isss down there"

The figure draws out a sword Are you going to help? or jusst watch?

Grins as he reachs his hand under his cloak to his back, where he pulls out a cross bow. He loads it and speaks

"Lets go"

The lizard stares at it

"You are joking right? Ssskeletonsss are sskeletonss, what are you going to do? Fire arrowss at their bonesss? Don't you have sssomething a bit more umm.. meaty? A nice warhammer will do nicely

The figure hisses

Chuckles and aims it at his neck

"Ever fired a high powered bolt at somebodys neck?"

Chuckles some more and lowers it

The lizard grins

"Not when its a ssskeleton, and the only boness pressent are very ssmall... you couldn't hit one of them throught the ssshield ass well.
Get a bit realisstic"

He looks down worried "The more we argue, the less the persson has chance to live"

He calls down the hole "WHO ARE YOU? SSSPEAK TO USS, WHERE ARE YOU?"

"I'll show you"

Grins as he aims around with his crossbow

The lizard laughs

"Tell you what.. you go down there with that crossbow, and when you come up with a few broken arms and legs, I'll tell you 'I'll show you'"

"Crossbows are Crossbows, you couldn't hit that gravestone from this distance, AND drill a hole in it with one shot"

He points over to a gravestone a few meters away

Shrugs as puts the crossbow back behind his cloak. He then draws both his swords and speaks

"Fine, I'll smash them!"

A tall figure robed in midnight black steps out from behind a tombstone,seeming to materialise from no place. A single cold eye regards the two from the shadows of his hood.
You two would traverse the dead passages, can you hear it?
The strangers voice is cold and fluid as a snow melt. His single eye closes a moment and his body stiffens,
Gently and slowly reaching out with his mind allowing his thoughts to mingle with the fell laughter a moments work to send a thought to one he hopes might hear.
Dravish?, we share a path and perhaps unfinished business

Opening his eye as if little had occured he looks back to the two strangers tossing his hood back to reveal marble pale skin and a mane of red hair flecked with blonde. His glacier blue eye surveys both the right side of his face displays a ruinous scar and and pucked eye lid.
So what do you plan to do?


((ooc i assumed this was open))

Liles looks at him and shrugs

"We could go down and smash them up, though it seems he is dead...Or at least for the time being"

The figure in white bends down and sniffs the new-commer

"Who'sss ssside are you on? For with your hard wordsss you have confusssed me"

He bends down and sniffs the soil, and turns to liles

"There isss a sssmell of blood, May Cherga guide him to the otherworld, and keep the blood-god's wisssh to bring him back ass a creature of dread"

He draws the sword again

"We have gained nothing, only lessss hopess, and maybe a new ally or enemy"
