Lore shrugs and tries to make sure that the willow plant is safely stowed in his backpack -- either wrapped in his bedroll, or wedged inside the pack with solid items protecting it. When he is satisfied he asks Kess to fly up and ahead invisible, but keep in contact as she scouts.

Piers vigorously keeps the pace as they walk toward their destination. The thought of a necromancer makes him shiver but anyone can see his determination on his face."By Kelemvor raising undead is atrocious and is a travesty of nature!And I vow I ll do my best to bring him to justice this vile Necromancer.May the gods protect us.I am sure our animal guide has more to say.I can always talk to him if everyone agrees (pointing at the bird) "

Cat responds "If you want that would be great. I mean, heading to a graveyard sound's like fun. But I would like more detail." 

Piers nods with a big sile and begins to chant in the druidic language.A green energy engulfs him but it feels tranquil. He extends his hand with an open palm as a gesture of friendship and says to the bird "Hello there my friend.I am Piers..What's your name?Do you know something about dead corpses?"

( did you cast speak with animals?

(Yeah i did)

the bird lookd at piers, a bit surprised. he went to his side, flying slowly to accompany them while guiding to the city of the dead "hello! my name is venti, i am just a simple messenger of the Emerald enclave. . . normally i can only communicate when lady Mellanor sends me to deliver a message. . .it's good to talk with my own voice sometimes. and about dead corpses. . . there's lots of it on the City of the dead, after all, it's a huge cemetery." the bird replies, as you enter the north ward.

The city of the dead is a Huge cemetery with a few Visitors. a few people are mourning beside some graves, and on the far right there seems to be an ongoing funeral. after walking for a bit, you see a knight on top of one grave. he seems angry, and walking towards him you see that the grave has been opened, and a few of the deceased's bones are missing

"cursed Gravedigger. He dares to corrupt the grounds where our ancestors rest? I won't allow it. when i find you, i will burn you myself on the stake. . ." he says mumbling to himself

Piers is pleased seing a new friend "its a pleasure my friend to meet you.Well you can always find me and if you have the need to chat I ll be at trollskull Manor.this is where we stay at the moment...Hmm when I was saying dead corpses I was talking about walking ones.Someone brings them back and don't let them rest" .As they reach the cemetery he can't stop thing about the natural thing of order..The philosophical aspect of how someone lives his life.How important is death to make a person appreciate life. Staring at the Knight and the open grave points at the others as there lies their first clue

(DM, are we allowed to use our 3rd level abilities?)

Not understanding the coos and bac ca boos between the Druid and bird, Cat asks Piers "Whats it saying?"

(Just a little rp then well get to the Knight.)

Piers apologetically says "Oh but where are my manners..Here is my dear friend cat..Ooh and don't worry she is not that kind of cat although she might purr hahah..bad joke.And here is venti!he was telling me how wonderful is to talk in his own voice.As for the dead rising up?.. we were getting to that "

Drux follows the group in quiet. He isn’t superstitious, but he has seen enough death in his life and honestly has no desire to linger long amongst the dead. If it isn’t death on the field of battle, he has no patience for it. But he will follow his friends to see where this bird and this job will take them.

With a little disbelief in her mind that she is giving a curtesy too a bird, Cat gives a curtsy to the Pidgeon but she looks a little frustrated 

"Ok ask it who this Ambrose Everdawn is please. And who sent the bird?"

"It is lady melanor the one who send our small friend.She is a member of the emerald enclave." he turns then back to cooing 

"Melanor, ok so the enclave that's good to know." She says with a smile. She continues into the graveyard with the group

The city of the dead is a Huge cemetery with a few Visitors. a few people are mourning beside some graves, and on the far right there seems to be an ongoing funeral. after walking for a bit, you see a knight on top of one grave. he seems angry, and walking towards him you see that the grave has been opened, and a few of the deceased's bones are missing

"cursed Gravedigger. He dares to corrupt the grounds where our ancestors rest? I won't allow it. when I find you, I will burn you myself on the stake. . ." he says mumbling to himself

Cat nervously approaches, she feels like she could bolt away quickly in light of the angry man  and this graveyard setting. But she swallows and says

"Salutations are you Ambrose?"

( sure! you may use your third level skills.

venti looks at cat, a bit puzzled "she really doesn't look like a cat. it's better that way, yesterday my wing almost got chomped off by one of those strays. . . if it wasn't for lady mellanor i would for sure turn into food." he says, looking at cat with curiosity. he didn't understand her, but he felt she wasn't a threat


"Huh? who is it?" the knight says, rising from the grave and looking at the group with annoyance on his eyes. you can see from dark circles under his eyes that he was apparently exausted, but he retained a commanding presence and stance. "who are you? if you're here to mourn, sorry, but this grave was robbed. the tenth one this week! and no clue of the culprit. . . you woudn't happen to know something about it, would you?" he asks, raising one eyelid in suspicion

Cat who's eye's are cat like due to her shifter heritage looks upon Ambrose "A little bird told us you needed help good sir." 

She motions towards the Pidgeon " One of Melanor's friends. We haven't decided on a name for our group but I'm favoring The Wardens." 

"I don't know about a name but we are a bunch of folks who try to help . Wardens doesn't sound bad..I like it!..Anyway we were send here by the emerald enclave to investigate the disappearance of bodies commander? " says as he plays with venti
