" Well met Baresh. It’s been a long day. The usual?" Baresh plops a large glass of Lethian ouisque in front of Shyonenkyo as he flips Baresh a bronze.

Spirits of the dead the call ’em. These Death spirits shot me with these nasty bolts. I tell ya, I ran like a spooked goblin! Then I saw this rat, all covered with pus. It bit some poor Elothean who got all sorts of nasty molds and gunk oozing offa him.
