Arith turned to face the direction the voice came from as Voren released his grip on the small elf's arms. The Arcanist's eyes glowed a bright blue as his partner flashed to his side, a subtle move that allowed the mage to copy the ability in case he had need for it. They very well might, since they had just more than likely attracted at least a little attention from anything, living or dead that may have been in the area. Voren forced a smile towards Amlugeth, although it came across as more unnerving than anything.<br/>"<span style="color: #8040FF">That's great and all, but we might want to get out of here or go kill that damned death mage right now. With that guy yelling, we're sure to be found, and if that thing attacks us first, not all of us are likely to make it out of here.</span><br/><br/>He turned his attention back to the man who had just called out to them, giving him a sharp look. He extended an index finger and put it in front of his mouth as a signal for him to be quiet. A quiet rustling could be heard from the forest nearby, and twigs cracking. He drew both of his knives, and motioned to Arith to prepare to fight. The sound rapidly encompassed the entire area around the town in the forest before it was suddenly quiet. It stayed that way nearly a minute, nobody moving a hair during the whole time. Voren took a step forward, adjusting the position he stood in, and stepped on a twig, snapping it. In an instant, at least twenty corpses flew out of the tree line towards them. Arith launched a ball of flames towards a compact group of them, Voren blinking towards another group, flipping through the air while spinning rapidly in an incredible display of speed and agility, shredding a group of five or six zombies to ribbons. He landed and blinked towards another group, slashing open a throat before quickly beheading the monster with another swipe, then flashed away again. He was rapidly exhausting his magic at this rate, but it was at least helping to keep them alive. He glanced over to Arith who was firing off at the zombies with all the spells he had, fire and ice flying as chunks of rock speared them from the ground. Although they were tearing through the living corpses, more were coming from the forest, and in greater numbers than before.
