Look or Die

As the magical light gathered around Lunas staff and her conjuration moved through the door a loud scraping sound came from all around the hall and the group turned to see the lids of the sarcophagi all moved partially away revealing the dark contents within. Here and there a withered hand clasped the outside of the stone, but nothing moved.

"Let's get out of here." Majvoc growled.

"Let is wait to see what Luna can tell us." Balar urged.

"Screw the elf girl and her magic." Majvoc emphasised the term elf girl deliberately.

There came another loud scrape and they looked over to see that the lids were almost clear now and around the room rotting corpses were frozen in various stages of sitting or climbing free of their resting place.

"What the hell is this?" Majvoc roared as he raced for the door. Jorrick grabbed the man.

"We dont know what is through there." roared the warrior.

"It can not be worse than what is in here!" a loud smashing sounded now and for the third time the attention of the party was drawn back into the room to whiteness another frozen scene. The sarcophagi were fully open now, their lids on the floor and nearly half of their occupants standing facing the group. Dwarves, elves, trolls and humans, their flesh hanging in ribbons and their eyes ablaze with hunger.

"They move when we are no looking." Tiella chewed over the words not quite sure of them.

"When we turn away, yes." Balar agreed.

"Then for gods sake keep watching them." Jorrik said as he finally let go of Majvocs arm.

"Luna, what do your shadows see out there?" Balar asked, not taking his eyes off the undead, "We need to get out of here now."

OOC: I know, I know... but they arent angels so it isn't really copying ;)
