Balthus smiles in admiration as Holger presses his attack and will be ready to attack should Holgers attack fail.

Holger bravely moves in on the creature but the expecting skeleton manages to cut the fighting man in the chest with its short sword before he can take a swing with his mallet. Holger staggers and a first attempt to connect fails, but he regrips and strikes the skeleton on its breast bone, knocking the creature back against the north wall where it sinks to the floor, dead...

"Friend, I thank you. Are you badly injured?", asks Balthus.

Balthus will attempts to bind Holger's wounds if necessary.

Lisglen looks at Holger as well. He is a bit hesitant to use his only healing spell, and would not know who to apply it to. "Is this really a dead end?" he asks to Balthus, pointing at the end of the passage in which the fight took place.

Balthus carefully binds Holger's wounds, who feels much better after the treatment. With Holger visibly recovering, Lisglen decides casting a spell is not needed right now. The hall appears to be a dead end indeed. The wall to the north, at the foot of which now lie several skulls and bones, is a very solid one: no suspicious cracks, stones, or seams are to be seen or felt...

"I thank you for freeing me. My name is Balthus. My distaste for this wretched place has grown, but I should like to accompany you and offer my sword."

Lisglen looks at Balthus then says: "Alright, then let's move to the other side of this corridor."

Making their way back past the pit trap the adventurers end up at a junction, some 12 m beyond the the crossing with the corridor leading to the antechamber. Two eastward bound hallways branch off from there: 6 m up ahead in the northern passage another junction can be seen, the southern corridor continues east for as for as Albin's torchlight reaches...

Memphisto peers around trying to get his bearings. "I suppose any direction is about as good as the other."

OOC--Does any corridor appear different that any other?

The hallways are much alike: the walls are of dressed stone and the floors are flagged. The ceiling is a little over 2 m high and the air is dry, dusty, and cold, like it has been throughout the forgotten ossuaries so far. No sounds are emerging from either of the corridors.
