The Marshall stared in the general direction of the new intruder, then, with a wave of his hand, sent hit entire trooping marching out of the room at doubletime.  Within less than ten seconds, the room was completely empty of undead, save for a single ghoul sitting in the far corner, arms crossed over his chest.  He wore a corroded breastplate and rusting greaves, yet the scabbard of his sword was polished to a wonderful finish.  Those familiar with history could recognize him as Pana Lords, the Warlord who led King Kaius I's army when they marched into infamy at Thronehold.<br/><br/>"Hi."  Pana said simply, staring down the group with an unjustified confidence.  "As you can see, your companion is unharmed.  ...provided she is still your companion."  The ghoul said, even as the current of undeath traveling through the secret passages receded completely.
