Larae, Louie
"Wait, what about your friend-- oh you're already leaving, I suppose that's fine, no really don't mind me" Lady Margot's voice fades away as you walk down the hill to your goal.
Approaching the circle and strange object reveals that it is, in fact, a pile of bones - human bones - and the dust thereof, with the red object being a sword shoved through the center.

She recovers quickly, but not quickly enough; her targets retaliate and strike her across the back with their broken swords, tearing through the leather of Meredith's jacket and cutting into her flesh.
Ludek's attacker makes to attack him as well and it unleashes a frenzy of slashes... none of which hit. It misses by so much that Ludek has ample time to position himself, and with a single great swipe, tears its throat open. The Hollow rasps, a cloud of brown, bloody spit sprays from its mouth, and it collapses with another bout of silver mist.
Ludek gains a Pittance of Souls.Wasting no time, Raivo approaches the tangled pile of struggling Hollows on the ground and, raising his mace, slams it into them with awesome force. The splintery snaps of bones shattering and messy noise of splattering gore fills the room as all three are killed by this one attack.
