The Battle for Jaldin Part 5

## Story

This Greshan House is laid out nearly identical to Death House except this one is been uninhabited for a long time. On the second floor, all the walls except for the support beams have been knocked out... messily. There is also several blood-soaked metal tables. Talia's shift starts to fade about five minutes after it started. Seline and Talia comment on it suggesting the Wolf might be watching out for her. The modifications are laid out in an assembly line fashion. There are a lot more production considerations in this house considering the sheer numbers of undead they encountered but when did she have the time? As Seline moves from horror to furious, she screams out for Victoria Greshan but gets no response.. Some of the equipment and the house modifications have been done relatively recently but here there is a extensive operating table covered in blood and blood oil along with the vats of blood oil. Another table is a half-finished generator that is smaller then a shock troopers but larger then the super zombies. Also on the table is the record player and phonographs. The final record:

> Experiment 610 subject shows full affinity and awareness. Also seems to possess genius level IQ. However no remnant all of her former personality remains intact. Process deemed viable four final experiment however some changes need to be made. I have decided to move operations once again. The subject has deemed it necessary to begin her own experiments.
>
> Victoria Greshan, in her journal

The record was recorded 6 days ago. Seline kicks the record player over in rage. Talia collects the records and schematics and notes. The notes appeared to have been made by the super zombie. Martin confirms that the super zombie was a sheriff after Seline and Talia return to the outside. They tell Seline and Talia, John is only been here for about a week. In the aftermath after realizing that they were probably more survivors. They searched and any they find they bring to the town hall cluster. They find another large group has arrived there ahead of them. Talia finds the horses and Cortez have wandered a little ways from where they left them and brings them back to town. Jacob and Gordon ask about John and what happened. Talia fills them in on not just the events of the past few days the whole affair from start to finish. Lenore, the silver raven, returns with word that the DMP are coming. Seline and Talia help out with the funerary detail. They set up their estate and Seline goes to bed. Once Seline's sound asleep, Talia goes outside the town. Then she shifts as she runs until she reaches a canyon. She howls at the waxing moon." It's beautiful on a night like tonight" come from the boulder next to her where John is sitting. John admits to being a watcher and protector and also has some knowledge Talia and Seline's activities... more than he should know. He urges caution with the Broker (because the Broker will call in his favors when it's least convenient), the Wolf (though he understands the draw, the wildness of the Wolf might lead Talia hurt the people she cares about), the scythe (though it'll do as its bid, he'll ask something of Talia that may be difficult but necessary and then the proper course of things). He says he'll visit again before they leave Jaldin and speak to Seline. Before he drops off the other side of the boulder they're sitting on and disappears. Talia returns to the town, to her estate and to bed. Last thoughts are of Seline as she drifts off to sleep.
