The Captain looks at Thulewyn and strokes his beard, considering. "All I knows about this place is that there's a monastery called Dragon's Rest. Don't think there's no inns or nothin', but I believe the abbess, I forget her name sorry, would put you folks up, especially if yer willin' to help out around the place."
The Captain scans the horizon. "There's been storms round these parts lately, too many storms if you ask me. I wouldn't be surprised if somethin' on that island were responsible. Not many sailors care to sail this way anymore, say the place is cursed. Can you imagine that?" He laughs, but it doesn't quite reach his eyes.

Under his breath Thulewyn mutters "So much for a safe haven." Clears his throat, turns to the group and say and says, "In that case, what are we waiting for, we best shove off."
The Captain points across the beach where you see a path winding up along the cliff. "Just follow that path," he says. Then he starts motioning for his sailors to prepare for departure. It's clear the captain doesn't want to stay any longer than necessary.

"You're saying that as long as I sweep the floors and stir the teapot, I'll get free housing? As much as I thought I was away from all that shit, free housing is free housing..."
She looks to the path that she previously eyed down before, and after seeing who she was brought ashore with, decided to just start walking, not thinking if the others were keeping up.

Abaddon's ears perk up at the mention of strange storms. "Strange storms, you say? Hmm..."
Abaddon appears to be deep in thought, and has a troubled look on his face.
"Well, this is hardly my first time in a monastery, so the work will be familar. Let's go," Medresh says, suiting actions to words he starts on the path to the monastery.
As you disembark and walk across the beach towards the path you hear a groaning noise coming from the ocean. You look over to the shoreline and see four undead humanoids shambling out from the waves toward you. They are dressed in what looks like tattered sailor's clothes.

"Last time I checked, the dead were ment to stay down." Thulewyn said as he sides his hammer free of his pack which then falls to the sand.
"I think these ones need remindin', would you agree defender of the dead?"
With that he reaches up and grabs the skull cap on his head and pulls it down over his face, turning into a mask. The Dwarves eys show though the the eye sockets of the great beasts skull, feathers sprouting out from around the top and sides. His beard rounds out around the bottom creating what looks like a giant mane of hair and feathers. Hammer and shield at the ready.

Oh, even more people? Well hello Thereeeee..... (Realizes that they're undead) ... Oh... uh...
Orissa draws her Shortbow for the time being and readies it, knocking an arrow and taking aim at one of the closer undead, waiting for one of the others to lead the attack.

Seeker nods. "Which way to the monastery, Captain?"

Walking past Abaddon, Thulewyn taps him and says quietly with a smirk "and the plot thickens..."
Following Orissa lead towards the path, Thulewyn yells ahead, "so will it be beaches or mountains first?"
"Well, this is hardly my first time in a monastery, so the work will be familar. Let's go," Medresh says, suiting actions to words he starts on the path to the monastery.

"Are those people?"
Orissa asks curiously, but when she notices they are undead, she looks to the others.
"Are they supposed to be here? Do we kill them? Do we leave them?"

Seeker eyes the creatures, then draws his yklwa, moving to place himself between the undead and the little kobold.

Abaddon's eyes widen. "Well, looks like we've got a welcoming party."
His lips curling into a wicked grin, he asks the captain, "Were you aware of this?"
His longsword flashes out of his sheath, at the ready as he assumes a battle pose.

If you look behind you, you can see Tihli looks like he's preparing some sort of magic spell.
