dungeon: undercity east
[Tieger bends to check on Grissom's body, which is lying at the top of the stairs.]
Tieger: Ach, there's no pulse. He's gone...
[Ashley enters the room to face Tieger and Neesa.]
You!! You did this!!
[Ashley, judiciously, Runs Away. Tieger and Neesa follow.]
Tieger: You killed our brother...
Neesa: Tieger, this is him. The VKP's Riskbreaker.
Tieger: So you're the one they speak of. They will sing songs of your death here!!
[They fight, and Ashley defeats them.]
Tieger: You...You fight well, Riskbreaker.
Neesa: Flatter him not, Tieger.
Tieger: We will witthdraw, Neesa. Can you fly?
Neesa: Well enough.
[They turn to snowflies and disappear.]
Ashley: ...That corpse was Grissom. But why here?
[Ashley goes back through the door to find Tieger and Neesa facing a suddenly-revived Grissom.]
Grissom: ...Please, a moment. My body is not... cooperating. Yeuuu... You!
Tieger: I am sorry, brother. We cannot help you now.
Grissom: Whaa... What is happening?
Neesa: Grissom. You have left this coil! The Dark has filled you; you have joined the cold ones!!
Grissom: An ironic fate. I suppose it is better than the endless wand'ring-- But to happen upon your own corpse! Uhoooohhhh!!!
--Kill ... Kill them all.--
Grissom: W-who speaks?
--It is bitter ... lonely. They must join us.. Kill them.--
Grissom: ...The walls! The walls speak!?
--Your friends, they dream of killing you. They will steal your body. Kill! Kill them all, Grissom!--
Grissom: My flesh... is mine and mine alone!!
[Grissom rises in midair and flies through the door. Tieger and Neesa follow.]
Tieger: GRISSOM!
