"Carrion birds and open graves," the Vagabond Knight murmurs softly to herself; "And a dark dance that has been ongoing for some time. These are lonely, shadowed paths we tread..."
She kneels before the graves and quietly addresses a prayer to each of the former tenants - Gunter, Bartholomaus, Katrin and the others; "I apologise humbly for further disturbing your already-violated rest, but by what I do I seek to aid you and confound the ones responsible for this blasphemy. I pray you grant me pardon and look kindly upon our venture, in the name of Almighty Thuul."
Once this is done she stands. "Friend Gustave, with your assistance..?" and as gingerly as she can, she clambers down into each of the graves in turn. She will plant a clove of garlic in the soil of the unearthed burial plot, cover it over, and then sprinkle the interior with holy water, (though she will be careful to use no more than a little in each - one flask to cover all six graves at most).
"There," she says, clambering out of the last grave and dusting herself down; "Any unclean creature now seeking to use these as a bolt-hole should find them little to their liking. Now onward. Let it be as Guntrum says - We search for evidence of tunnels leading beyond this tomb. If so there be, we leave and return tomorrow with all the force we can muster."
She draws the sword of Jehan and sets her white shield upon her arm.
"Let us begin."
