As you land your final blow and dispatch the last of these mouldering foes, you make to leave by the stairs. But you are halted in your tracks when your Sixth Sense warns that more undead are about to descend into the hold at any moment. Cursing your luck, you turn and run towards the stern section where you hide behind the ship’s rudder. More undead enter the hold, yet they ignore the broken bodies of those you have just fought and make only a cursory search. As you watch them climbing the stairs you breathe a silent sigh of relief.

Soon the ship becomes deathly quiet and your mind is filled with concern for the Lencian crewmen—your Kai senses detect there are no living beings close by.

If you wish to investigate what is happening up on deck, turn to 186.

If you choose to stay hidden here in the hold, turn to 314.
