I think it's safer to dig up a body at night.

Let's split the difference then! Early morning, when it's light enough to see, but people are still at home eating their breakfast.

Late evening might be better - I bet our neighbors get up early.

Agreed. Less people out. Less chance of being spotted, still enough light out to get done what needs done, cover of darkness bringing the body back home.

Turn 13:

You think that you'll go dig up Olof in the late evening. It isn't that far away and it will give you some time to look around. It's probabley safer to do it at night since no one is around, the hunters are out in the woods before the sun even rises in the morning so you might get spotted. It'd be a different story if you lived near one of those cursed forests you hear so much about. Luckily the biggest things that live near the village are the Bejourns (which are delicious) and they don't put up to much of a fight if you have a weapon.

You go have a look at one of the glowing symbols on the wall. You may need to light up somewhere in the future after all.
Panel 1:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Okay, on second thoughts you have no idea what these things are. They aren't just painted on , they look sort of like floating glass but when you go to touch them your hand goes right through. Even if you did memorise the symbol you don't think you could actually make one of these things.

You grab the shovel while you're over here since your going to need it anyway.

Lets go take a closer look at these scrolls.

Panel 2:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
So maybe these circles and lines mean something? You don't recognise them from anywhere. For all you know they could be from an ancient language or they could be the scribblings of a madman. The marking below them is a handprint although it is a bit inacurate. It doesn't even have the right amount of fingers.

Dig up corpse as well.

we're going to have to wait a day, right? cause it's already night. so we should find something to occupy ourselves in the mean time.

Turn 14: Grave Robbing

Panel 1:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
You go to dig up Olof. You take Shelby with you so he can help dig up the grave.

Panel 2:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It's gotten a bit darker since you came inside.

Panel 3:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Here it is, the grave of Olof Grey. You spot a Bejourn in the bushes but it scampers off once it realises it has been spotted.

Panel 4:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
You give Shelby the shovel and start to move the rocks that cover the grave. They are black stones, as is the tradition with burials.

Panel 5:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Done. Now all that is left to do is to dig up the body.

This seems backwards. Why not have the mindless skeletal minion do the work while the intelligent human who knows what to look for keeps a lookout for observers and dangers.
