Lulu was flying around with an expression that could be read as a concern. "I used to know how to heal. I think. I hope I will again."
Harkina, lacking any skill to help with the healing, checked the sword. "Someone on the other side must being doing the proper silvering. Or collecting all silvered weapons around the city. We all tried to get some, when found out this is the only way to truly hurt the devils." She looked at Ordrag and Adray: "I hate to rush you, but standing on the open is dangerous".
Fran would glance over to Lulu from her comment, taking a moment to mourn her missing magic for her. "You will." She'd catch herself blurting.
Remembering that she may have been smart enough to pack some burn salve in her healing kit, the artificer will dig into her kit for it. She'll manage to find something she could throw together to apply on them. Though, taking Harkina's warning seriously, Fran would be able to treat them on the move should they continue away from the area. "Do they randomly plant these weapons on bodys fer people teh find?" She'd ask reflecting on the cloaked figures that slunk away from the body, but left a sword? "Keep moving as we ponder?"
Choir wonders whether demons had left the silvery sword as bait for a trap, and the cloaked figures had been smart enough to recognize and avoid it.

Adray accepts Fran's treatment. He give s a nod to Ordrag, "Keep the sword, Im not trained to use it properly, but let's find these cloaked men if we can. Let's move quick." He moved out with the others trying to track them down.
They are not difficult to track, the group saw clearly where they went - the relatively intact house to your right. The house has many black spots on the walls from the burns by the constant lightnings like everything here, but some windows even still have glass in it, and the door slightly moves in hinges, indicating that it is not locked.

First thing that greeted you inside was the heavy stench of rotting flesh. Even here, where the air was thick with all smells of decay one can imagine, that one stood out. Four of emaciated, roughly humanoid hairless creatures with a plae decaying hide stretched tight over their bones were standing around a table eating something. When they turned to the sound, Ordrag and Choir could see sharp teeth of a carnivore and sunken eyes that burned as if they were hot coals. On the table laid a dead body with wounds clearly left by the teeth.
The figures were not devils, that much Choir could see.
Fran would follow behind the others and would not rush inside. Could she see what was inside though, she'd swallow hard, trying not to vomit. Cannibals?
The smell of carrion doesn't particularly upset Choir, considering her corvid ancestry. The thought that these creatures seem like undead of some sort was more worrying. Choir has never yet turned undead in the real world, but she had the training, and decides this is the moment to test how good that training is.
(Initiative if needed-- 8 )
Choir raises her holy symbol of Akadi and speaks the words the High Priestess taught her, the prayer of censure against undead! Save vs DC 16
(As an action, you present your holy symbol and speak a prayer censuring the undead. Each undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes any damage.
A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action.)

Adray will take that healing (8+ the 5 for his level) to go back to full. Filing in with the others, Adray would spot the creatures too. "What we got here? Explain yourselves," Adray calls out as Chior says her prayer.
I am afraid we will need Initiative here in addition to the prayers. Rolls, please. (Not from Choir, obviously)
The undead - yes, there was no doubts the group was undeads, the worst kind, those that did not loose mind completely - slowly moved towards intruders.
Despite Ordrag and Choir being the first to enter the house, it was Polly who reacted the fastest. Effectively too - the undead (of course they were undead) did not share demonic resistance to the fire (probably explaining why the place was not overrun with them). While Choir was chanting her exorcism and Ordrag readied weapons, undeads were closing already short distance.
Adray, Fran, Brutus. Choir and Ordrag are sort of on the way (but you can go though friendly creature space). (M1 is wounded)

Or perhaps the devils can't bear to touch it, and therefore left it on the corpse, thinks Ordrag hopefully.
Let's see where those cloak fellas went, eh? he proposes. Ordrag is happy to enter the building first...
How does a red dragon blow out the candles on its birthday cake?
