==Transcript==
===Introduction===
"There!" Rakshara says. "That zombie wields magic. It must be their master!"
Rogar's Dream is horizontal, its keen tip pointing at the creature that attracted the oroc's eye. Sure enough, he's clad in the robes of a spellcaster. And there's a glowing staff in his hands.
"Kill him!" you and your companions chorus.
===Conclusion===
"Die, zombie!"
"Die, master!"
"Eat steel!"
"Burn in hell!"
"These and sundry other cries of battle, insult, and enthusiasm herald a veritable forest of thrusting, sweeping, and descending blades – all focused on the zombie mage's cranium.
You wince. But by some miracle, no one loses a hand. The zombie loses his head, which is pretty much splattered by the violence concentrated upon it, but you can endure that with cheerful equanimity.
A cheer goes forth, echoing through the gloomy forest.
It dies out slowly, decreasing by degrees until the last lingering trace of exhilaration becomes a mournful "Oh...".
The other zombies are still alive... Well, undead. In any event, they haven't perished. They remain shambling, clawing, lunging, and attempting to sate their likely psychosomatic hunger with your brains.
"Maybe he wasn't the master," Rakshara says.
"Never mind," Hugh says. "Let's just chop up the rest of these buggers and keep looking."
