Bones of the Wraithguard

The party cleared the low, torchlit tomb chamber where the Sword Wraith Warrior had once commanded a small host of the restless dead. The wraith's sword left a blackened scorch through mortar and stone; the undead warrior and skeletons were scattered about on cracked flagstones, and near a collapsed lectern the undead mage's ruined robes and spell components lay half-buried. Whatever this place once protected is gone, but what remains is a mix of the mundane—coins, rusted gear—and items steeped in lingering necromantic residue. Most heatless of all is a spectral longsword blade, its metal chilled to the touch and humming faintly with stolen life.
