A few days after facing off with the necromancer and destroying one of their bases, we received word that the rebel army had been eliminated. The undead had all ceased activity at once, and there had been no further movement since. The cause was unclear.
The body of the undead girl might have, in fact, played a major role, or perhaps the necromancer had simply given up after losing such a large base for manufacturing relay corpses. There was no way to know for sure. All that could be said was that the Hero’s duty had come to an end before the imperial military ever arrived.
Now we were to return to the capital.
