As the group neared the village, the same half solid shadow from earlier could be spotted moving towards the small force from the west. After several seconds it arrived next to Mortan and Tiaz before it melted away to reveal Vaulthuz standing in it's place. The necromancer quickly noticed the new arrivals and inspected them for several moments before simply nodding his approval "More allies of yours, I presume Mortan?" Not waiting for an answer, Vaulthuz turned to face the village and pointed rather lazily "This village should require little effort to overrun. It is small and would likely have been destroyed long ago if not for the nearby fort, I propose we wipe out the village first and use the supply of corpses to then attack the fortress."
After proposing his, rather simple ,plan Vaulthuz noticed a small light growing larger from the direction of the village. A single villager seemed to have noticed the group approaching, although he did not recognize it's intent "Hey! What are you doing out here at this hour? There be beasts lurking around and worse from what I've heard" the villager holding torch called out as he approached, trying to get a better look at the figures standing away from the light of the town. The Bonemelder quickly raised his hand and released a brief torrent of dark purple energy. The moment the spell made contact with the mans body he froze and dropped the torch. After a few moments he dropped to his knees and began to shake and sob. Before the man could make any truly hysterical cries, Vaulthuz fell upon him, drawing a small blade and using it to slit the villagers throat in one fluid movement. After spending a few moments casting a reanimation spell on the fresh corpse,he turned to the rest of the group "We should begin quickly." He said shortly.
