Chapter 2:Mixing in.

Approaching the village, I came across what looked like a walking corpse. This I hoped was one of those rational undead and with that in mind I approached him.



Upon seeing me, he walked over and engaged in conversation through which I learnt both his name (Terrence) and the town ahead (Brill). He offered to escort me, which I accepted gratefully explaining that I've not been out for a very long time. He interpreted this to mean that I was confined in a crypt where rituals were perform to aid me in breaking free from mindless undead slavery. I took this to mean that my illusory device was successful in deceiving Terrence, for surely he must have mistaken me to be of his kind. With a curt wave of his hand, he gestured me to follow him to Brill, and so I did as intended.



In Brill, I met with its mayor, who gave me a couple of errands with the intention of proving myself to 'The Dark Lady'. I was at this juncture unsure as to whom the title referred to; but on the assumption that it was a person of quality, I hastily completed the errands and was rewarded with an order to the Undercity, their capital.
