-The Lost Fragments load up their cart, including their bound friend, Kepher, who goes in and out of lucidity. Keva hefts the load, hauling the cart to his home. Once there, they spend then night after Keva takes Kepher to the Temple of Anubis where they offer to heal him. +The Lost Fragments load up their cart, including their bound friend, Kepher, who goes in and out of lucidity.

 The next day, Ina is kicked out by Tumani lest she have sticky fingers, while he organizes and categorizes their treasures. She heads to Tooth &. Hookah tavern to relax after their adventures, and maybe get to chase after her romantic interest, Sigrun Firehair. She runs into one Carver “Arclight” Bey, an wizard elf interested in archeology and offers to let him examine what found. Tumani is happy to have his help, and is delighted to have someone to talk with who is also learned in history, the arcane, and religion.  The next day, Ina is kicked out by Tumani lest she have sticky fingers, while he organizes and categorizes their treasures.

 The next day, Kepher returns, much improved and the party makes plans to attend the auction. Carver asks to attend and they agree, though they note their money is their money.  The next day, Kepher returns, much improved and the party makes plans to attend the auction.

 The Canny Jackal hosts many of Wati's richest collectors and historians, from local nobles to representatives from An, Tephu, and even Sothis. Auctions traditionally begin an hour after sunset, with a complimentary reception beforehand for the attendees to mingle with one another and enjoy refreshments. This evening, the Jackal is offering cheese-stuffed figs, hard-boiled peacock eggs, onion bread, onion-stuffed squid, fresh and dried fruit, spiced wine, and a sampling of 2,000-year-old honey recovered from one of the tombs. By the time the Lost Fragments and their guest arrive arrive, several noteworthy members of Wati society have already gathered, and more filter in as the night wears on.  The Canny Jackal hosts many of Wati's richest collectors and historians, from local nobles to representatives from An, Tephu, and even Sothis.

 Ina also talks some with the Meshhoten dowager and granddaughter, finding out what they are looking for. It is during this time she and Tumani notice Ptemenib leaving early, less than half an hour in. The auction proceeds after the mingling, and the Lost Fragments make out well, with over 1,000 gold apiece from their findings.  Ina also talks some with the Meshhoten dowager and granddaughter, finding out what they are looking for.

 As the auction winds down and the attendees mill about, paying for their purchases and gloating over their acquisitions, Tumani and Carver both feel a massive wash of soul energy surge over them. It is //ka// energy, part of the soul that It takes them some moments to understand it. The two find each other in the room and huddle together to discuss. Ina notices them moving and catches Tumani’s eye with a questioning look. Tumani nods, and says, //”It’s time to go”//. Ina’s hands move towards her weapons. It is at this point a frantic pounding comes from The Canny Jackal's front door. The servants move to open the doors, and they suddenly collapse, reduced to splinters, and a horde of zombies shamble forward, hungry for the blood of the living. The two servants, Ahteb and Hamapetra immediately fall, unconscious and dying.  As the auction winds down and the attendees mill about, paying for their purchases and gloating over their acquisitions, Tumani and Carver both feel a massive wash of soul energy surge over them.

 After the attack, it is clear the zombies came from the overturned wagon in the streets. But there is little time to rest. Despite the exhortations of the Lost Fragments, the auction attendees flee the zombies, the movement destabilizes scaffolding at the front of the building, and the structure collapses. Two of the auction guests, Maru and Namaru Meshhoten are trapped beneath the wreckage. Tumani immediately casts //enlarge// on Keva, and the now 12’ tall man easily free the trapped woman who rush back insight.  After the attack, it is clear the zombies came from the overturned wagon in the streets.

 Carver sends out his //dancing lights// to get a feel for what is going on in the city. He can hear screaming in the distance. Whatever is going on is affecting the whole city. This is something greater than just an attack. Indeed, just the zombies are not attacking them. Several crawling hands are moving toward the Canny Jackel.  Carver sends out his //dancing lights// to get a feel for what is going on in the city. He can hear screaming in the distance.
