After being thrown together abruptly, the party was charged by a group of undead spawned from the same corpse. Howling in rage and defiance, Tatarus charged forth - only to fall short of his enemies and leaving his comrades far behind. He was promptly surrounded and wounded badly before Galen managed to burn most of the offending enemies away. The remaining frozen corpse and a skeleton still kept him down for a while even after using his healing wind.
As they continued along their path, they encountered a graveyard that spawned rot hound after rot hound. Despite Galen's comment about them being target practice, a few unlucky misses made the hounds pile up before Tatarus finally made the insight that the gravestones could be disabled to stem the flow of hounds. Felicity and Galen succeeded in disarming all of the gravestones while Tatarus killed of the stragglers, and they were on their way again. Finally they faced a triple challenge as three walls bar their path to the next safe house and the end of the day. The first and second wall both had two tombstones that functioned as before as well as well as maintaining the wall. the party decided to follow the tatic of divide and conquer and split Galen to the crawling claw tombstone and Felicity and Tatarus to the wraith's, reasoning that Galen's greenflame sword would instant kill the crawling claws. Succeeding in their task, they push forth to the second wall that had tougher opposition in the form of skeletons and hounds. they numbered seven each, but fortunately the tombstones had overworked themselves, giving the heroes time to slaughter the undead minions with the help of several lucky crits by Tatarus. Even so, when the second wall crumbled Galen's solos against the rot hounds left him injured badly though he had spent his second wind, and he stayed back to rest his wounds for a while. The three frozen corpses were not much of a trouble except when they used their frozen burst simultaneously, bringing Felicity down to the most precarious position as of yet, but thankfully for her Tatarus's luck held and the corpses were down before they could take another move - and before Galen could hobble back to help them, a fact she uses against Galen frequently.
