Machete

- There are a couple... (you have a new message)
- It seems you're late, warrior. The Necromancers have already captured her. We need to rescue the sorceress... In the Cursed Chapel (the Elf pointed to one of the buildings, clearly a place of danger and cold death), the Necromancer Raven is currently performing a ritual, and her (the sorceress's) soul... is blissfully unaware, enjoying the sunshine somewhere. You must interrupt the ceremony. Raven is the leader of the Necromancers of Mistrad, and besides, there are many Liches and Undead there, so it won't be easy. But you must somehow interrupt the ceremony! Get to the chapel and see what you can do; I'll be nearby and will help you if needed... Here, take this silver sword... It's a bit heavy, but at least vampires and other unholy creatures will die like flies ;) Keep the amulet around your neck; it will protect you with an Air Shield from arrows.
Good luck, warrior! And the Elf said no more, gazing thoughtfully as if looking through the chapel...
Well, well! So, it seems a bloodbath is inevitable! I guess I'll have to rely on the silver sword. I tried a few sword movements... Hmm. You can't really jump around much with this. But at least I won't let anyone get close!
I approached the chapel. There were a couple of skeletons standing outside. They noticed me and attacked! The larger one ran straight at me, swinging its sword, while the other started aiming with a bow... I prepared for a fight, but then the second one fired. The amulet should help... The arrow ricocheted off the air shield and knocked the skull off the skeleton-swordsman! The remaining body dropped its sword, and I finished it off in two strikes.
Hmm... If the guard outside is so meager, what will it be like inside...?
Without much thought, I climbed onto the nearest dead tree and from there - onto the roof of the chapel. Through a hole in the roof, I slipped inside and hid on a beam under the ceiling. Down below...
I've got a hole in my pocket!
