Chapter 93: Ill Met By Moonlight (1) (1/2)

Cleaning the courtyard of 'Cracked Tusk Keep' was done pretty quickly! The keep fort itself was locked from the inside

I will deal with it somehow but I had to make sure no one is alive around

Jull confir was still around in the woods I a for hi with the rest of the preparations

There was some stuff notable in the courtyard like soood price The Orcs are known for their sood

I wanted to take these weapons with me to Winterhold to lessen Wulfur's workload but it will be impossible as I don't have the liberty to travel this slow

My business in Falkreath will take a few more days atthese thoughts ingood Some horses in a stable and two carts

Now I can loot the whole damn fort if I wanted to

I conjured ten bonemen to do the work for me Bonemen can put down their bows and arrows then do whatever I tell them to do, I could have reanimated some dead corpses to do the work for me but I hate that kind of Necro, it is just about corpses, they s the carts and carried all the ite the horses to the carts as it was a bit complicated for the undead to do

Just as I made sure the place was cleaned, I headed to the fort

'Scan' spell showed me that there are some people fortified in there and are on alert Their nu me is a foolish move anyway”

I called back the wrathmen that were left out and they were around the sa over there! Bring down that gate!”

The best point of the undead is their absolute obedience I love those cute bone walkers for a reason

They did as I ordered and brought the large log

I can easily break the gate with a strong e scene All in all, it was just ate with this prih and the movements inside intensified, the ones inside probably are preparing for an eate was forced open but the people inside were trying to block the door with all the stuff they have, chairs, tables, chests, you name it

I increased the number of the wrathate and placed a ical rune spell on it It was a 'Fire Rune' but not the typical one This one was a bit too intense so I added a fewback behind my undead, I evoked a simple 'Fire Bolt' then…

”Aaah! I ah on this!”

Maybe I ae) but I think this has so to use Fire Magic ic lately

Will I become an arsonist? I know that Jonrad Fireon Knight at that Can it be that I aenes fro froate was already clear

”Go in there, kill whoever you see”

I passed down the order to the undead around ood to control thatbut this sive some sense of pride to the victor

Anyway, screams and wails for mercy sounded fro treated like the bad guy?

I went to check the situation in and it seemed it was done pretty quickly

”You spread this direction! You the other direction! You followaround the fort for valuables and got so it into some empty containers and commanded the undead to take them out

After I finished the upper part of the fort, I went down and found a kitchen with nothing interesting in it I passed the kitchen to another room small corridor behind it that led me to the back door of the fort, there are also some stairs that led to the basement, or rather the vault

”Hehe! I knew it is here but I didn't find the key”

In front ofsteel bars I saw that mechanism before in 'Hob's Fall Cave' It needs some lever for activation

I knehere it was too Just on ht, there was a hole in the wall sealed with a h! Ti lessons

I took out a s and started the annoying work

The lock was hard but using 'Scan' spell was cheating itself so it didn't take

Just as the lock was picked, the metal plate was nowit made the steel bars that blocked the path uys” I said as I looked at the undead behind uys were alive and knehat I was about to do they would have cursed at e andahead like this is only a corridor to hell The a

[A/N: A terrifying ah! I wish]

Nowaround all these traps while ju up and down like a dork, why not make our dear undead clear up the traps themselves

On my command, the undead went into the corridor and from it to the vault chamber like a stream of water All sorts of traps went on Poison darts, spikes, tripwires, alchemy bombs, false floor

damn! There are some I didn't even spot before

As I discovered that, I added more undead to the fray

It continued for a minute until all the traps went off and I sensed that the roouys! That h

Anyway, I walked to the innermost part of the chamber as I recall that the item I am after was there

”Indeed it is here!”

I saw it! I saw it on an alter
