  Victory isn't beyond your grasp, you just need to regroup and organize. You immediately seek out Irwin, Sebastian and Catalina.
  
  You find Sebastian and Catalina, and they're running low on viable corpses.
  
  "Hey, glad you could get here, the Nuro mage guards are putting up a hell of a fight! The demonologists can't keep the demons in line and whatever former graduates Mr. Demar had to help us are probably all dead by now!" Sebastian explains.
  "Yeah, it's bad all over. Where's Irwin?" you ask.
  "Irwin? He's dead; can't you see his body lying over there with all the arrows in it?" Catalina points out.
  "Well, no point in letting this go to waste, we need all the help we can get." You say and command Irwin to rise to join the rest of the horde
  
  You tell Catalina and Sebastian to hand control over the rest of their troops to you, as if you can concentrate them with a single mind, you'll be able to break the doors down of city hall and take out the remainder of the mage guards holding out there. You also tell them that one should head back to the college itself and go check on Quayle, and the other should go help out Mr. Demar.
  
  Oddly enough Sebastian and Catalina obey your orders immediately. You begin to feel even more confident in your power of command. You proceed to tell your now larger undead horde to attack the last bastion of Nuro's governmental control. You unleash blasts of dark energy at the mage guards who attempt to defend from the windows while your zombies and skeletons break down the doors and begin to massacre all those inside.
  
  You enter the building nearly oblivious to the carnage. You feel a very real sense of calming peace amongst the death. Eventually you encounter the "First Citizen" of Nuro busily trying to slay as many of your soldiers as possible, but as you continue to raise them, even he realizes it's a futile endeavor.
  
  A skeleton warrior hacks his arm off with an axe, and then a recently raised mage guard clubs him in the head with a small mace. He falls to the floor of his own office before your feet and looks up at you.
  
  "Why? You...you'll never get away with this..." he sputters as he bleeds out.
  "You might be right, but it'll be interesting to see if I do." You calmly say and kick him in the face before another skeleton lands a killing blow to him. He is then raised to join the ranks.
  
  You exit the building and notice that the city is near empty. At least as far as the living go. The dead however are plentiful, bodies litter the streets. More resources for you, you think.
  
  A demonologist looking very worn from battle sees you and you have to stop your small horde from attacking.
  
  "Hey hold on! I'm on your side! Shit, this didn't turn out as planned, did it?"
  "Oh I dunno, we got the city."
  "Yeah, but Mr. Demar is still battling the rest of the staff in the college and I'm really worried about what the hell's going on with Quayle's spell, I don't know if you've experienced it yet, but I've been seeing buildings phase in and out of existence. I knew fucking around with time would be trouble!"
  "Where are all of the demons?" you ask.
  "Most of them left! I mean there's a few that stuck around, most of the weaker variety. There was a major demon called Velzix who was supposed to be helping, but he took off as well. Bah! Unreliable lot they are. I should've done what you did, become a necromancer! The dead always obey."
  "Not always...but you may still fulfill your wish after all this is over, so where exactly are Mr. Demar and Quayle, I mean I know they're in the university, but where exactly?"
  "You can't miss either one of them, Quayle's located in east section of campus, where you see all the damn buildings phasing in and out. As for Mr. Demar, well I'm sure you can still hear the explosions. I'm going to try to corral at least some of the imps and help Mr. Demar, I'm not going anywhere near the eastside of the campus though. I'm off!"
  
  The demonologist runs to go do what he said, leaving you with a couple choices of proceeding. You could go try to fix this problem with Quayle since it won't do anyone any good if the city collapses on itself or disappears to gods know where, of course you don't know exactly what you're going to do, hell you've never even spoken to Quayle before. He was always kept locked up by himself in his room studying most of the time.
  
  Of course you could go help Mr. Demar, chances are he could solve the problem with Quayle a lot better if he survives.
  
  > go help Mr. Demar
  You might be a competent necromancer, but you're leery about messing around with time. You better help Mr. Demar so he can better deal with the possible Quayle situation.
  
  You head towards campus where various explosions are taking place, it doesn't take long before you encounter Sebastian lying on the ground. You guess he attempted to help Mr. Demar and got killed for his troubles.
  
  "Damn, sorry about that." You say and then raise him to join your horde and hope Catalina is doing a better job with Quayle.
  
  You enter the administration building. Smoke, fire and body parts look all around. In the distance you hear shouting followed by magic blasts.
  
  "Ha ha! You're weak old man and I'm taking over this shit!"
  
  You order your undead horde to run ahead of you as you approach the sounds of battle. You turn the corner just in time for Trelik run into you, he's definitely caught off guard.
  
  "YOU! You little sycophant come to help teacher eh, well it won't..."
  
  You don't listen to his melodramatic speeches, you tell your horde to kill him and they do so easily given that he's heavily outnumbered and can't cast a spell quick enough. Mr. Demar arrives just in time to see the aftermath.
  
  "Damn, I was hoping to kill him myself. No matter, what's done is done now. Our enemies here are defeated. Most of the high ranking professors have been killed, I'm just looking for that cowering Dean. Have you secured the city?"
  "Yeah, I personally stormed city hall and slew the first citizen and all of his mage guards."
  "Ha ha! I knew you had potential!" Mr. Demar laughs and pats you on the shoulder.
  "Mr. Demar I think you should know something. Quayle's spell is becoming erratic, someone said buildings are starting to phase in and out of existence. I think Jasmine's over there, but I don't think she'll be able to handle what's going on."
  "Dammit, I'd hoped that Quayle was stable enough to...aaargh! Nevermind, I'll have to take care of this, because if his actions go completely wrong we're all dead. Since you seem to be good at killing high officials, you take care of the dean."
  
  Mr. Demar takes his leave towards the eastside of campus, leaving you to take out the dean. You're a little unsure of yourself, the dean of the university didn't get that way by being a push over. Though Mr. Demar did say he was cowering somewhere so maybe he's not that tough. You tell your undead troops to spread out and search the building. Along the way you see Felsa's body. Oh well, another follower for you...
  
  You begin to grow tired of searching mundane office after mundane office so it's a treat when you once again hear the sounds of battle and see the dean at the end of a corridor fighting off your horde.
  
  "Back, foul things!" The dean shouts casting a ray of pure light in the faces of many of your troops.
  
  He hasn't seen you yet so you take advantage and cast your own blast of negative energy into his side. He falls in pain, but returns fire which you barely dodge. He crawls out of your line of sight and behind a corner.
  
  "So Demar sends one of his students to take care of me, too cowardly to do it himself eh? It'll take more than a few skeletons and a neophyte necromancer to bring me down! Come and get me if you dare!"
  
  You have to kill him while he's still weak, if you let him regain energy he could possibly escape, or worse, kill you.
  
  > raise more dead and march them down the corridor
  You decide the best way is to take the straight forward approach and just overwhelm the dean. You raise more nearby bodies and add them to your tireless horde. As they march down the corridor, you stand near the end of the corridor figuring, if the dean comes out to cast a fireball he won't get you. However you severely underestimated the dean.
  
  He does indeed come out from behind the corner again and he casts a very powerful version of chain lightning, it zaps through your troops, not really doing anything except halting them briefly and rattling their dead bones, however when the lightning reaches YOU, you feel the effects a lot more severely as every organ in your body is fried and your skin is charred black.
  
  You fall to the floor dead and your horde soon follows.
