"They still not gone? Fine, then, maybe I will have a quick rest while you get rid of them..."

"I'll come along, in case of trouble."

In reply to Svendegard Yurick (msg # 938):

Sven follows his Mother's directions, and drives the oxcart through a number of  alleyways before reaching a basement entrance to an old sto e building. After k ovki g, there is an uncomfortable pause.
Right before Sven knocks again, there is a rattle of keys, and the door is pulled
open  by a bald hunched figure in black.

15:14, Today: Nana Yurick rolled 16 using 3d6.  merchant ~ 12 .
"Hey Mister! Wanna buy four mostly-intact corpses??"
Nana blunders...

Sven standing behind and off the side, looks at the hunchback and then his sister, and covers his face with his palm.
"Uff Da!.."

In reply to Svendegard Yurick (msg # 941):

"Let me get Master Bertrand"

In reply to Holgien (msg # 942):

The hunchback closes and locks the door, and returns a few minutes later, accompanied by a cadaverous looking bearded man in voluminous robes.

"Let me see your wares. These were walking how recently? The condition is poor, I may not be able to gather much from this... an intact one, brought in chains with a hood, or in a barrel that I would pay dearly for."

In reply to Bertrand (msg # 943):
"We cleared them out of the cellar of a building that had been abandoned since the plague. They were walking recently, before we put them down earlier today."

In reply to Bertrand (msg # 943):
"Dearly? How Dear, Mister? We're still clearing out the property, and we might run into more of them, and could supply your demand."

In reply to Nana Yurick (msg # 945):

"For this fractured lot, I can give you one silver and ten. ($30), for an intact, active specimin, I would pay two gold. ($160)"

"Okay. Let's get these unloaded, Brother."
Nana pockets the $30
"We'll split it six ways, then."

Sven and his sister unload the four, using a shabby tarp.
"Okay, Let's get out of here."

"Now, hold your horses..Why don't we see if we can scrounge up some chain, so we can capture these things. Maybe even a cage, would could just load onto the cart, and cover with a tarp."

"Good idea, Sis. If we can capture a whole lot, and deliver them all together, we can make alot of money, working with these guys."

In reply to Svendegard Yurick (msg # 950):

"I am not so sure that capturing zombies is such a brilliant idea..."

"Depending on where we encounter them, it might not be too hard to figure out a way to trap, and capture them. Hooded, and bound, they can't attack anyone, and two gold per zombie, is good coin..."

07:25, Today: Svendegard Yurick rolled 13 using 3d6.  scrounging ~ 11.
"Don't know where we'd get any chains...Free, anyways. We could use rope, just the same. I know ship's knots, so don't worry about it, right now..."

Does silver work on them?

"I'm not sure. Ma would know. She knows all about undead, spirits, and demons."

"I'm not sure either. But those undead we ran into didn't seem particularly magical, but animated by whatever that plague was. Maybe that's why these bookworms, wanna study 'em so badly. Corpses are common enough, and raising undead is fairly simple, for the money they're offerin'!"
The girl says with a twinkle in her eye.

In reply to Nana Yurick (msg # 956):

"Silver is expensive, and regular weapons worked fine..."

Was thinking silver chains .. but whatever...

"Ma and Pa, always said if you had any talent, you're smart enough to learn magic...
But you prefer to hang around in Little Shevnia, with the merchants."

"I keep my eyes and ears open, about where there's coin to be made. But, I certainly wouldn't mind studying, if  discovered I had talent. You though, you're just a two-bit huscarl, you churl!"
She says as she throws a punch at him.
