The stench of decay wafts into the hall all to familiar as the walls lay scorched, and the strange creature lay growling lowly in its throat.
"What happened in here?" Hazel questions, the oozing creature's arm juts forth gripping her ankle as she lets out another piercing scream.
Lonán on the hand looks more annoyed then anything as he throws his hand over her mouth to shut her up. "Will you please. Your way to loud for this time of night."
Her muffled protest is cut short as the creature pulls at her ankle.
"I think I know what this thing is." Looking back the woman with red hair steps forward her eyes filled with worry as she squats down to pull the creatures hand off Hazel's ankle.
"Milly this can't be." The Goliath all but shakes its head.
"But it is. We— we have a Lich on our hands."
"And how the hell do you guess that? This thing seems to act more—" Hazel is cut off once more by now Milly's hand rage covering her orbs.
"I would say keep your mouth shut but I think you don't need it right now." With that She pulls her hand back and Hazel's mouth is all but gone leaving behind a wall of skin. Fingers shooting up to check as Milly get up the oozing creature seeming to follow her.
Lonán chuckles pushing up to his feet and watching Milly as she steps into the room. Following close behind the creature screeches its body seeming to expand a bit.
"It looks like you know this thing..."
"I did, this is Doctor Oleck Carver, my partner." She sighs placing her hand as over her face. "Did you fuck around with the damn rock again?"
The creature now known as Doctor Oleck shivers and sort of curls in on itself.
"Oh you did, and look what happened! You lost your body again!" Milly shouts, turning her gaze to the Goliath who holds his hand over his face. "And I'm guessing you knew?! Is this why you wanted me to sleep in the front with you tonight?"
"Milly you know what their research is... could you blame them?"
If looks could kill both stone guardian and slime would have burst into flames.
"Um, I have a question..." Lonán steps between them. "Did you just say a Lich?"He questions, and the Doctor Oleck bounces in place all to cheery at his predicament.
"So he was warning us..." I finally spoke eyeing the slime as it shift and folds in on itself until its form seem to be more human.
"I— I tried..." Doctor Oleck stuttered, "Hurt..."
"We'll looks like were hunting down a Lich..." Milly mumbled, picking up loose sheets of paper and other chard items. "This ain't good..."
