Tronash considered his course of action.
It hadn't occurred to him that Reshiki might not know where his companions were to be found. He was unlikely to have time to trudge about the city in search of them.
Then again, perhaps there was merit in his earlier suggestion. If Korlan had gone after all of his foes at once, then there would be zombies near the mage and the swordsman as well.
Closing his eyes, he stared out into the astral plane. All about were bright auras corresponding to the bustling citizens of Doma.
Ignoring these, he concentrated on the patches of darkness where the fallen guards lay. The magic that had held them together was dissipating quickly, but if he concentrated, he could just make out strands of darkness forming a trail.
Following the trail, he soon found three more patches of darkness corresponding to zombies bereft of the magic that gave them "life".
Of the auras clustered nearby, two were familiar.
"This way," he said, popping his eyes open and setting off.
They were only a couple of streets over, and it wouldn't take long to reach them.
Whereupon, it occurred to him, it would be necessary to explain the situation all over again.
