Ambrose Everdawn, a night guard at the City of the Dead reported, that several corpses have gone missing. We offered our help and patrolled the graveyard for the next three days. On the third day, several more skeletons came to life and charged us. We defeated them and found a cursed gem which stored a necromantic spell inside it. Xato touched and absorbed it into his sword, subsequently slashing and almost killing the nightguard out of heightened anger. He stood trial and through a series of fortunate and unfortunate events, he was released and we stored the devilish sword in the Tower of the Black Mage for safekeeping and studying.
