The return

"I beg your pardon, but I had to ask. Are you going to leave yet? There may still be survivors or we may need your help for something." Malti spoke uncertainly, not knowing what excuse to use to keep Athos.

"If any problems arise, it's your job to fix them. Don't waste my time again." Athos said coldly, before starting to teach her the spell. Once he was sure she had learned the spell, Athos whistled for Simogo to approach and climbed onto his back.

Both quickly departed, leaving a stunned Malti behind.

Malti continued to watch until Athos disappeared from view, before turning to the surrounding skeletons and starting to bark orders.

"You rotten bones, you heard your orders! I want you to gather all the corpses that haven't been transformed in front of the inner wall gate. After that we'll work on removing all the mithril plates." Malti yelled at all the skeletons.
