The creaking noises only grew louder as the skeletons advanced!

Neffy's blade of water whipped through the air, the compressed and high-speed liquid working something like a saw as it hit bone, parting ribs and ultimately a spinal column as the skeleton collapsed into two halves. For a moment, at least. Its lower jaw hanging open, the upper half of the skeletal undead immediately began dragging itself forward, the lower half twitching slightly.

The skeleton attacked by Nuri raised its shield ineffectively before having its skull caved in by the hilt of her sword. It stumbled and fell backwards, dropping its weapons. Though it had not stopped moving, it at the very least seemed disabled as it simply twitched on the ground.

The first skeleton Léon struck swung its rusted sword at nearly the same time he attacked, his polehammer completely snapping its lower arm in two and crushing its ribcage, causing it to stumbled backwards and fall. It wasn't completely disabled yet, but it was down for a moment. The second he struck, however, was able to block with its rusty old shield. It stumbled back regardless, but moments later it rushed the cleric, shield up and aged mace raised over its head!

The party's ingvarr fared quite well against his skeletal opponent. As it attempted to strike him, the sword it wielded bounced off of the shield repeatedly, creaking noises echoing from its bony limbs. His fist broke through desiccated flesh a cracked bone, before finally crushing its shoulder blade and causing its right arm to detach entirely. It wasn't down, but it had become far less of a threat in that instant.

The other four skeletons, however, remained a threat. One, which had the most flesh on its body out of any of them, rushed forward with a strange gutteral noise from its perpetually-hanging jaw, a two-handed sword above its head as the other three followed!
