After a short rest, Norm has regained his voice
The full party returns to the Keep to see if they can get to the Fortress
After studying the lay of the land, they decide to approach the Fortress via the west wall
They open the doors to the Western Guard Tower and discover that it appears to have been undisturbed since the fall of the Keep 30 years earlier
Taking fire from
Skeleton archers on the Fortress, the party makes it to the North-West Great Tower
From there, they assault the roof of the Fortress and kill many Skeletons
They take the stairs down to the ground level and fight numerous
Zombies-
Also, a
Specter floats up through the floor and observes the party during the fight. It flees when Norm blasts it with a
Magic Missile After killing the Zombies and “The Advisor”, “The Castellan” and his “Scribe” arrive (via the stairs from below)
As he is a formidable opponent and the party's resources are severely depleted, they opt to flee
The Castellan does not pursue them and they make it back to the camp safely
That night, they observe a green glow from the Keep and see a handful of ghostly creatures flying about the Keep
They conclude that The Castellan is reviving his undead minions!
