Undead and Elves, and soon Undead elves.

Bored. I have been drawing plans for weeks. I need to hit something. I wont be able to become the success I need to be to show my clan my worth by sitting in town.
While I was walking to my paltry hovel one of the guards stopped me, whispering clandestinely to Meet with Ser Gurst for a mission. What the hells, like I said, I am bored.
I showed up and saw a friend from my last mission. And several other talented looking individuals. Gurst told us that we would be competing with some pansy ass commander to kill some undead. Childs play, but maybe good for study material.
WE stopped by the lady in the lake again on our way out. On a whim I decided to toss one of these odd coins. Then as directed I drank the lake water…..and promptly puked…a sapphire. Noted.
As we were leaving Ser Gurst informed us there was an assassination planed on pansy boy. Well yay? But I guess we need him for some political BS. So we traveled with him to keep him safe.
The next night we set out to hunt some undead. Have to beat this fool, lot of gold at stake. Some zombies fell to our prowess. But my owl, ( who still has not given me their name,) noticed that we were being watched. So I mentioned to our littlest member Finnan where they were. And he disappeared through his own skill no magic required and ambushed our ambushers while I lead the troop as a distraction.
I should have closed distance more then I did however, when Finnan sprung his trap we were too far away to support him properly. What happened next was proper chaos. The assassins where very skilled. Their poison sunk into my colleagues. They dodged all my best spells. It was not my best showing. But one ran, the other… filled out our count for the contest. Then we returned to the camp to check on our unknowing charges. They had been hit by more of the assassins, five of their knights died. The Idiot was still alive. We returned him to town seeing as we had more undead heads anyway. Now with a 100 platinum in my purse I have plans to work on…..
