Re: Chapter Two: The Tale of Deadwater
Mention of Pockets needing help to come out of his shell got a good-natured laugh from Mercion. Her laugh was a light, airy sound, almost musical. “Yes. Because Pockets is so shy.”
“Hey! Hey, Hey, HEY! I’m standin’ right here, y’know!”
“My apologies, friend.” Still, she swallowed a laugh as she smiled at Sundos. Her fellow priest returned with serious business at hand, She put aside her joking banter. Her blue eyes held the thoughtfulness that Sundos had seen earlier. “Yes. To douse the undead with water from Eldath’s Well is like dousing them with acid.
That is why those unfortunate few longtime members of my congregation who fell to them did not turn. They died of their injuries, but did not rise as ghouls. Of course you may fill your vials.” Mercion gestured at the jug and waterskin. “And the containers for your friend.”
Mercion’s cloak slipped back as she welcomed them, revealing a suit of half-mail armor. A gleaming mace hung at her hip. She looked dressed for battle.
