As Nori and Faruom followed the woman and her prisoner, they came to the entrance of a large cavern, The woman roughly pushed Haydn through. Faruom put his hand on Nori's shoulder stopping the dwarf a short way before the opening, "footsteps, coming from that passage" he whispered pointing to the passage immediately to their right. Nori peered down the passage, his eyes were more accustom to the darkness of the tunnels than that of his Gondorian friend, "it's Aldor" he whispered, the pair cautiously walked down the passage towards their fellow companion.

As they got closer Aldor's hand gripped his sword, "It's us" Nori informed him in a low voice. "We're glad to see that you are alive" Faruom smiled giving his stern looking friend a slap on the shoulder. "Nice sword" he said spotting the second sword hanging from his waist, "There's no time for this!" Nori interupted impatiently, looking back down the passage to where the young man who had healed his wound was in need of their help. "your right, Haydn needs our help" Faruom said his smile fading into a frown. Faruom then turned back to Aldor, quickly filling him in on the events since they left the cavern of spears, he nodded but did not speak of what had happened with him.

They then drew their weapons and made their way determinely back the the cavern entrance, they crouched behind a large out cropping of rock, then the dwarf proceeded to tell the two men what he could see beyond the caverns entrance, "It looks to be a throne room of some kind, there is only Two of them" he whispered, "the woman and some male ghostly undead creature" he continued puzzled at what this other creature could be, "A wight" Aldor said answering his unspoken question, "and how do we kill it" Faruom asked slightly concerned, Aldor just shrugged.

The three quickly discussed a plan of attack, in the end Aldor had insisted that he would take on the wight, Nori would take on the woman and Faruom would tend to Haydn.The three then rose and rushed into the room weapons raised.

The wight was already advancing on them and as it did it throw Haydn away like a piece of old meat that it had finnished with. Nori stood beside Aldor his axe raised, he saw Faruom dash across the room to Haydn's side, then he spotted the pale woman rushing over to intercept him, so he rolled out of the way of the wight and charged at the woman knocking her to the ground.
