The Undercroft
2-2 Ambush from Around the Corner
The party is immediately beset by Feral Vrykolakes and Nekrokynes. The recognize wounds on the creatures from when they were dispatched on Moonday the 9th of Shul in the year 52 New Sky. The slain monsters had risen to fight again.
A Feral Vrykolales strike a critical hit against Vi’sil.
The wound blackens immediately and a horrid infection from beyond the grave begins to spread. The character must make a DC 10 Fort save or temporarily lose 3 Stamina. The infection continues to attack each day, forcing another DC 10 Fort save each morning (failure results in the loss of another 1d4 Stamina) until the infection is magically expunged. The character does not heal while infected.
Vi’sil determined that the creatures could always be revived with blood or meat. The party decided to burn the remains of the fiends.

It is said that the temple holds a sacred statue of the Weeping Maiden, known to offer blessing and remove curses and disease.
