Session 13: Spooky Scary Skeletons! They send shivers down my spine! Report

General Summary

The party, now refreshed and armed with knowledge from Mormesk, head back out to the mansion. From there, the party moves cautiously around yesterday's corpses now teeming with rot grubs AND zombified. Noticeably, however, Ned's corpse was not among them. They had still set off the stinking cloud trap that was installed over night, but the zombie numbers had been thinned enough that the party went through pretty well besides Erland performing a 1000 degree knife challenge on his face. From there, the party ambushed the leader of the smugglers, Master Sanbalat, but he pulled a disappearing act to regain the upperhand. It was all for naught, however, as the party eventually killed him after incapacitating his ability to cast magic.   The party did learn about the hostage situation Sanbalat was performing to run his smuggling operation, so they setup a plan to save the hostages. Its not long before they've killed both Ironshadows and freed the hostages of the blackmailed smugglers, that swiftly escaped the house afterwards. From there, the party decided that last thing to do was to check out the room that had "DANGER" scrawled all over. clearly there'd be more treasure right?
