((So Petmailer is going up top the spend the next hour on watch, while Stena butchers. Is she getting any further help? Easiest for access/transport would be to remove whole legs at the shoulder/hip, leaving the hide on for now would protect a fair bit of the meat, and extra hid could be cut to flap over and cover the meat at the joint end. Leg would give something to hold onto and be able to throw over the shoulder for transport upward.))

"Totally, bruh. Righteous family recipe coming right up! Though might have to make some substitutions down here..."
The party makes a temporary camp up on the ledge where most of you oversaw Petmailer fleeing from his former captors, protected from the front by the ledge itself, and able to keep watch from the back.
The goblins get a small fire going, and thread strips of beef along long splinters of fungal wood, holding them over the flame, and soon the scent and sizzle of beef fat dripping into flame fills the space. YukYuk takes point as cook, and Spiderbait brings skewers to each of you as you rest (Stena being the first to receive one).
((You may all take a short rest.))

Galingal tastes the cooked beef then looks more closely at it. Anyone looking at him at that moment might see the corners of his mouth turn up in what passes for a smile in the Shadar-Kai.
"This has taste," Galingal says finally. "Good."
He looks around the group after their rest. Galingal's feeling almost as good as new but he's not sure about the rest of them.
Petmailer rests and stretches his arms, feeling much improved after the earlier attack. He takes the meat stick with thanks, a surprised look on his face as he consumes it. Once he’s rested and moving better, he stands and walks over to Stena and Gailingal, saying “I wonder what lies below. I hope no further restless spirits. Although I think I’ll be disappointed on that count..”. he does a few stretches and then nods when Stena speaks, saying “I’m ready.”

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
Assuming Lia and Neth burned some HD and appear rested, and the rest of the group do too, Galingal gathers his gear and heads back down into the tomb.
Once the group is again assembled in the chamber with the four coffins, Galingal makes sure to collect the jewelry that was in the coffins but leaves the glowing skull gems alone for now.
He'll help push the last tomb on its rollers once everyone is set.
Petmailer sees where Galingal is pointing and he starts to shove the last coffin on rollers. He looks healed and feeling much better, but he is not shoving with the urgency or force of before..

((Lia will sing and play softly while you're resting, her bardic Song of Rest allows anyone who rolled a HD to roll an additional 1d6. If that changes how many HD you'd roll, feel free to retcon. She rolled well on her 2d8+4+1d6, and is back up to full. Neth is at 22/24 after rolling 2d8+4+1d6.))

Fargas seems to be the only one suffering from longer term effects of the wraiths, a deep bruise marring the side of his neck down across his shoulder, and he occasionally shivers, his breathing coming shallow, but he's gamely determined to see this through, or at least isn't willing to let the rest of you loot the tomb without him.
"There's another room here, should we explore that before we go down below?", he asks, pointing to the second door in the room that has now cleared of fog in the time you were resting.

((Stena wouldn't count on help, so whatever is manageable for her. If Galingal is just hanging about she'll get him helping.
If they are coming back down, she'll give it another go.))
Stena, covered it a mix of gore and dust emerges to where the rest are just lazying about.
She points at the goblins,
"Ye can cook? Use this."
She hands over the beef. Then to Jimjar,
"Supervise. Aye don't want any surprises. "
She'll then move into the shadows and, once invisible, collapse in exhaustion.

Galingal HD 1: 4

"What state everyone in?"
2 HD: 12
Stena steps from the shadows and takes the proffered meat stick, and after a cursory examination of it, bites in.
She doesn't say anything while she eats but after finishing it she says to the goblins, in what amounts to glowing praise for her,
"Ye can make this again, there was plenty of meat left on the cows."
After the rest and meal she feels nearly as fresh as she did when she started this morning and gives Galingal a slight nod.
"Let's get this grave robbing over with."
3HD : 20

((Stena was only 1 off from full, so I will just bump her to full with the song of rest.))
Stena looks at the drow that invited himself to the big kid's discussion with mild disdain.
"There will be more undead, like aye said."
She will head down with the rest and take her position behind the pair opening the door.
((Oh, and any chance Stena could recover her arrow she hit the cow with? She is rapidly depleting her ammo.))
((Yeah, she can have retrieved her cow arrow.))
The stone coffin rolls back easily, the same stairs looming before you.

Stena looks to Galingal to lead the way but will be right behind him.
Stena turns to look at the halfling.
"Now we're checking down there."
She glares him into silence before turning back to the matter at hand.
