Timur's Plan

Greetings! I'm Timur Belinsky, the leader of the hunter expedition on Coldberg. What can I do for you?

So Sigurd thinks the demons are in cahoots with the undead? Can't say I'm surprised - after some discussion, we've come to the same conclusion.

Actually, my theory is that this is a new kind of undead... Perhaps demons created these new assistants... I've taken to calling them the Astral Undead.

Since you are helping Sigurd, maybe you can help us. I want to see if our old weapons are still effective against them. Here, take this! It's called "Anti-Demon 2M" and it's great at scaring off astral vermin. There's a whole horde of undead roaming around Frost Peak. Try using the repellent on them and kill six undead. If they're really Astral in nature, they'll be scampering away from you. That means you might need to do some running!

If I'm right about the undead being Astral in origin, then this repellent will make them run away as fast as those rickety little legs will carry them! So, what were are the results?

It didn't work? That's odd. Maybe the repellent was used up? No, that can't be, we just brought a new shipment from Kirah and I tested it myself on demons just the other day. It seems the device works wonder on demons, but it's ineffective against undead.

Turns out I was wrong - the demons have nothing to do with the undead invasion. Well then, who does? We must get to the bottom of this!
