Episode 2: Local Heroes

"It is within the town limits. Right behind the cathedral," Zanthus explains.

He waits downstairs until you’re ready, then leads you to the boneyard. All the way he asks you with interest about your previous exploits, and what your plans for the future are?

The vault in question is a 20-footsquare stone structure. "This vault is used to house the remains of the previous caretakers, priests and acolytes who’ve served the church of Desna," Zanthus tells you.

You can see that the stone door is hanging ajar, and the ground around the place is churned up as well.

Alaric listens to Butler as on their way to the crypt but says nothing as he walks with his companions. As they near the crypt, he drops his hands to his rapiers. When Butler tells the party to let him enter first, Alaric nods in acknowledgment. Alaric closes one eye before entering the crypt, so that his vision will adjust to the dim lighting without a problem and waits for Butler to enter the crypt, following Butler into the crypt and taking a position on Butler's left flank once the Knight is clear of the entrance.

As Butler nears the door, he fails to notice a small glyph that’s been seemingly carved into the door. As the door opens, revealing a sizable vault with several rows of coffins, magical energies fly from the glyph. Splitting into six rays, they hit the ground behind you. As they do, skeletal hands claw their way up, and suddenly you find yourself surrounded by six sturdy looking skeletons.
