Perseus: If you wish to equip your crazy stuff PM me.
Gamemaniac: You can do it by yourself, so do it by yourself or tell me to make the calculations about it.
tsukasa: Sorry but you didn't had a shadow orb.
Note: If you're wishing to get the curse off of those cool stuff wait some levels or they will be too strong.
We left the place and went for the castle.
The doors of the castle are broken, and the guards that should be in the entrance have dissappeared...
We enter the castle looking for the mayor, there are some zombies around, apparently from the bodies of the guards, but we're in a hurry and avoid them, as they're very slow.
We get to the main hall, to watch something terrible going on.
A large man is holding the mayor from the throat, the mayor appears to have choked. The man grabs the rune and throw the dead body of the mayor to the floor... Kalah is just behind him, and has seen us arriving to the scene.
Mephistopheles: "There goes our reward.. the mayor is dead."
Kalah: "Look Jash, you left some living ones."
Jash: "More bodies? it will be a pleasure"
Kalah: "Wait... this are no ordinary guards, look, he's the man Neru wants."
Jash: "Oh, the mighty Mephistopheles huh? he doesn't looks so rude, I heard Neru is giving a good price for his head."
Kalah: "To be more precise, for him... alive."
Jash: "Yeah, whatever."
Kalah: "Let's not take any risks, take the rune to Shalandur and give it to Neru, I'll deal with them."
Jash: "You'll take all the fun and credit? No, I won't let you"
Kalah: "And what would Neru do to you if he finds out you killed Mephistopheles? he said he wants him alive, so leave and don't bother."
Jash: "Fine, have it your way, but don't take too long."
The man Kalah called Jash disappears teleported, the rune is out of reach now.
Mephistopheles: "We were too late........ but this time, you won't escape Kalah."
Kalah: "Perhaps you should think twice."
The dead body of the mayor reanimates and wants to attack you.
Mephistopheles: "No, this skeleton won't save you this time.. you're going down together with him, you're still surrounded."
Kalah: "Is that so?"
The windows of the castle are broken by skeletons, the walls are rumbling with their hits.... a moment later, they make several holes in the walls and break through...
Kalah: "Who is surrounded huh? it is not I who will not escape, it is you who are trapped here."
Mephistopheles: "We've fought your undead before, they're no match for us, no matter how many."
Kalah: "True... you were able to stop even the orcs.... but you wouldn't think such a great necromancer as me wouldn't have a secret card reserved? I was expecting you to kill the orcs, and add them to my power, those fools were easily manipulated, I believe it is time now to show you my real summoning powers."
Kalah starts to concentrate energy with a strange chant and all the skeletons start to glow.
Mephistopheles: "What is going on?!"
The skeletons break apart, and their bones fly onto the skeleton of the mayor... and starts to emmit a bright light, all the skeletons that had the town seized are flowing into a single point.
Kalah: "Behold, the mighty power of bones, the true skeleton above all, the most perfect skeletal structure, a Boneguard."
From the light, an enormous skeleton appears, human-shaped, with sharp blades of bone instead of hands. The boneguard breaks the roof just by standing, and tears down the walls as if mere toys... and then starts walking towards you.
Kalah: "Attack them but don't kill Mephistopeles. You see, a Boneguard is bound to his caster, so this time, I'll have to be in the fight too, prepare to die."
Boneguard: "Kill... the living."
Short stop: Anyone wants to say, do, or equip anything before the battle?
