Out from the darkness footsteps could be heard. It was a cloaked man. Beside him was the Wraith and several skeletons. The skeletons were that of Gnolls. The necromancer observed those at the steps. Specifically Ellyn, as he smirked. "Thank you lass for making my job easier." He then moved his hand towards her face pressing a finger to her forehead. The finger was dry and you could see the skin sag. "Now sleep,...along with your friends" he said. Seeing she was a elf he cast a spell that would knick her out. Seeing sleep spells were ineffective. The skeletons began to drag Artos, Ellyn, Garekk, and Vivian off.

 Ellis began to feel a bit taken back by Hugh. Okay maybe I went over board. Then he heard Ellyn's song and crashed. The horse quit struggling as well and fell to the ground. He saw two figures leaving the entrance. A cloaked man and a shadowy creature. They were joined by skeletons shaped like dogmen and he was about to yell but sleep took him. The skeletons proceeded to grab and drag everyone into the depths of the entrance. A portal was opened and it brought them to a circular antichamber. Each of the members were placed in a cage. Locked from the outside.

 Anyone else who fell victim to the sleep spell suffered the same fate. Except for two people who were being reluctant. Sana and Hugh. He walked over and leaned in. Behind him a skeleton was pulling Ellis off the wagon and carrying him off. Another grabbed the goblin and the newcomer. Then came Varis, he was farther from the group so he was taken last. The necromancer pulled his hood slightly. Hugh could see that half the mans face was gone. Green orbs filling the eye sockets. "You want to save her so badly... Too bad... So sad." He said. The wraith reached forward to tear Sana from his grasp. Once Hugh collapsed he was drug off too.


  The spell of Ellyn's didnt last long. When wore off, lasting a bit less for Varis. They would find themselves in a cage. Even the spell that left Ellyn unconscious was losing its effect. The necromancer who took them was no where to be found.
