As Laszlo slips and fails to strike his target, the natural movement of his body hides his failed attack. Instead, it looks to everyone else that he was attempting fancy manoeuvring to surround the enemy.
In retaliation, the skeleton that Laszlo attempted to attack spins around and stabs its shortsword at him.
(Attack: 7 Damage: 8 piercing damage)
The skeleton on the left then fires an arrow from its short bow at Gubo
(Attack: 16 Damage: 7 piercing damage)
The third skeleton, the one in the middle, takes two flasks from its belt and throws one at Titus and one at Ahorangi.
"Ow! Shit." Gubo recoils a little after being hit by the arrow---right in the arm---and he pulls it out with a wince. "That hurt." Discarding the arrow, he pulls out his weapons, holding his rapier in his right hand and his dagger in his left. He rushes up to the skeleton that hit him, cursing under his breath, and attacks twice.
Ahorangi grins at the skeleton that threw the acid and targets it specifically. Charging up with Kowhatu held high, once more an echo of herself travels with her, before she launches into a jump and tries to slam the mail into the skeletons skull.

Laszlo flicks his rapier knocking the clumsy strike from the skeleton harmlessly to the side. Using the creatures momentum against itself he continues the motion and attempts to drive the point of the rapier into the one of the spinal joints, hoping to cause enough damage to disrupt the magic that unnaturally binds the bones together.

(Laszlo, Skeletons, Gubo, Titus, Ahorangi)
Gubo closes the gab between him and the skeleton that shot at him. Then by attacking with his rapier and dagger, he quickly disposes of the reanimated creature.
His initial eldritch blast before the start of the fight missed any of the creatures as he was too quick to focus properly. However, Titus's second blast was more accurate. Unfortunately, the blast only breaks a few of the skeleton's ribs.
Ahorangi goes for the skeleton in the middle. She rushes forward and attacks with her maul. The blow strikes the skeleton on the skull, and a loud crack can be heard. However, it still remains standing.
After parrying the skeleton's attack, Laszlo is quick and accurate with his attacks. The first attack cracks the skeleton's spine and the final one disconnects spine altogether. The skeleton collapses down around him.
Only one skeleton remains, and in retaliation to Ahorangi's attack it reaches out with it's bony hand and scratches at her face.
(Attack: 23 Damage: 3)

"Nice shot, y'all! Now it's my turn." He jumps up---performing a flashy backflip for good measure---and bounds towards the last skeleton standing. He strikes in a similar manner as he did to the previous skeleton: first with the rapier, then the dagger.
Gubo moves in with his rapier to attack the remaining skeleton. However, with a flick of the wrist, the skeleton parries the attack. This distracts the skeleton, and it fails to see the dagger coming. The dagger chips away at one of the ribs.
From behind Gubo, Titus blasts at the skeleton with an eldritch blast which knocks the skeleton back a step.
Then Ahorangi follows up with an attack of her own cracking two of the skeleton's ribs.
The skeleton is looking worse for ware but it still stands.

"How are you still not dead yet?" Laszlo shouts before rethinking the phrase. "I mean actually dead, the kind without all this walking about business!"
Almost as if in response to Laslo's questioning, the skeleton falls down dead. Although, that is not until he manages to successfully attack the skeleton that is.

"All right! Three more down, a whole shipfull to go." Without skipping a beat, Gubo continues rushing down the street, weapons at the ready, scanning the area for more skeletons or people to help.
"As fun as scattering these boneheads is, I feel a bit like we're trying to fight an anthill one ant at a time. Let's get to that ship and find us a queen yeah? An watch out for more'a those ones with the flasks."
"That makes sense. Good thing we got you, cap'n, or else we'd be fighting skeletons all night." The harengon changes course, hopping straight to the foggy image of the ship. "What was in those flasks anyways? Looked like they had something nasty in 'em."

"Not sure about the flasks, tried to get a look at 'em in the scuffle but before I knew it they were flying straight at our allies. Nothing we want to be hit with I'd wager," Laszlo says with a nervous smile.
You head toward the ship that is docked just outside of town. Whilst you run, Gubo tries to keep an eye out for any more skeletons or people in trouble but fails to find anything of note.
When you draw closer to the ship, you realise just how big the ship is. The Flensed Servant rises above your heads, its hull is covered in barnacles and seaweed. Two massive masts with sails rise from the Servant's deck high up into the air. Around the perimeter of the deck, you can see a wooden railing a couple of feet high. From the shore, you can see that the ship's ghostly glow comes from lanterns that light up the deck in a flickering blue-green light.
A wooden plank acts as the gangway to the deck of the ship.

While moving Titus slowly reverts back to his old form, hunched over, scratching at the neck, and stumbling over his words.
