As the gate creaks open, a low groan rises from the stone walls, and a dozen skeletal warriors stumble forth, their hollow eyes glowing with a faint blue light. Jeane swiftly steps between Varrika and the gate, her voice cutting through the groaning stone like a whipcrack as she orders the undead to halt. With Seraphine's analysis of the skeletons' magical animation, Halie readies her holy symbol, prepared to deflect any unholy energies. Merrin positions herself beside Halie, crossbow at the ready, while Varrika readies her mace, calculating the skeletal warriors' movements.

The air thickens with the stench of decay as the gate swings open, and Halie's holy symbol flares brighter in response to the unholy presence. Jeane assesses the situation, weighing the risks of engaging the undead. With a nod, she signals for Varrika and Merrin to form a defensive line behind her, crossbows at the ready. Seraphine's arcane analysis provides crucial insight into the skeletons' necrotic energy, while Halie stands guard, prepared to defend her companions with divine protection.
