The pack decided to go to the Bozeman library, and see if the active caern was okay. The position of a library, city park, and graveyard in such proximity to each other creates a spiritually powerful place.
This late in the night it seemed deserted save for some of the lights where the cleaning crew was in the building. The park appeared empty as well, but felt like something was about to happen. It was as if the entire area held its breath in anticipation.
Snorkey climbed the bat habitat while the rest of the group slowly milled about in the night air. Lucky for Snorkey, the bats weren’t in and he was able to see into the graveyard. Looking over the hedge Snorkey noticed movement in the graveyard. Six figures were digging up graves and pulling bodies out of the holes.
Meanwhile the Michaels eyed the spirit world to take measure of the emotional overlay. They learned that the spirits of pain and regret were out of balance. They seemed to be aggressive towards the other spirits in the area. If left unchecked the feelings of pain and regret would taint the whole area.
Ilva sniffed out where the figures were roughly in the graveyard, while Michael S separated the group into attack waves. Ilva and Snorky were on point, with Michael S and Adien as their immediate backup. The rest were to watch the perimeter.
Ilva and Snorky crept up on the figures in the graveyard, but an errant can was knocked over. The warned figures weren't fast enough to dodge away from Ilva and Snorky's assault. However our intrepid heroes quickly discovered that the figures seemed to be reanimated corpses, or zombies. Only two of the figures reacted with intelligence. One of which tried to cloud the minds of everyone so it could disappear.
The group overcame the zombies with Ilva landing the final blow. Michael M, Josh, and Aiden stayed to cleanse the area. Snorky led the rest deeper into the graveyard where they found a crystal skull. The skull had veins of a grey mineral running through it and glowed green.
Through the extended effort of the group, led by Michael M, they quieted the skull. The spirits quieted in the area as the green light faded. After this Michael S decided that the group should focus on acquiring their pack totem, before hunting the banes that had gone to ground. The pack agreed to come back on the night of the lunar eclipse.
