MEANWHILE:

Manfred Took arrives at a house on his way to the castle. It appears to be in bad shape, a bit shaggy and droopy. He can hear some noises inside.

[Cheddarius]

How's this?
Gray tries to dig a grave for his fallen friend. He asks if he could borrow a shovel, but nobody has one. A longsword? A blade, a spear, anything? His grim companions shake their heads. Ewart may have died, but they've learned from him to be vigilant, ever-watchful. He tries his mace. Swinging at the ground, he merely pounds it and packs it tighter. Finally he scrabbles at the dirt with his hands. Furiously he digs, fingernails breaking on the rocks in the ground, tears streaming out of his eyes. He needs to know that Ewart will be okay, that he will too. He finally gives up. Looking sadly at the hole in the ground he's managed to dig, he turns around to retrieve his mace and is horrified. Cheddarius leans over the body, a scrap of flesh in his mouth. Blood drips down his chin...

[Squeegy]

...and he lunges at Gray, foaming at the mouth. Gray sidesteps, and Cheddarius falls headfirst into the hole. Gray drives the mace into the back of Cheddarius's head, and blood flows freely from the wound. He slams the mace again and again, until blood is splattered all over the ground. Tears openly streaming down his face, he sadly begins to throw dirt on top of the body.

Sounds good to me.

[Cheddarius]

Bah!
Besides, he never finished the hole. He didn't get a shovel or anything, so he gave up.

[Squeegy]

I never said it was finished, I just said you fell into it.

You dead boi. Unless you'd care to retract your statement?

[Cheddarius]

Yeah, yeah.

[LeoLeonardoIII]

Strife rolled a 2 on his burial roll. I... don't know how to take that.

It means everything relating to Ewart Oakeshott is doomed to failure. You guys better (attempt to) throw my old stuff in a river.

[Frelock]

Pass by the house and continue to head to the castle.
Naw, where would be the fun in that?  Peek through any windows/openings.  If none are readily available, listen in.

I'll follow trying to be as quiet as possible

[Cheddarius]

Follow ~30 feet behind

You listen by the door. You hear some murmuring, stifled sobbing, and suddenly something breaking.

[Cheddarius]

Frelock, please investigate.

I'm following Frelock, or want to. That's why I had quoted em.

[Squeegy]

No, you're not. Manfred left many, many turns ago.

Heh hate when that happens... hmm I'll head off in a random direction to explore then. Trying to be sneaky.
