As so it was that, undaunted by her previous encounters, that Mirabella, accompanied by Sylvia, continued clearing the undead infested basement.

They cleared the room of 4 skeletons, taking only minor injury and proceeded to open the door at the far end, after checking for noise and traps. ( This was to be a tactic employed at every door they encountered.)

This door led to a short, 10 foot long corridor, ending in another door. Again, the duo listened and checked for traps, and they found no traps and heard no sound. However, when they opened the door, they were confronted by 2 Ogres.

After a bit of back and forth combat and Sylvia receiving an extremely heavy blow that may well have felled someone of a lesser constitution, the duo decided to lure the Ogres back to the pit trap the previously encountered. With the Ogres hot on their heels, they managed to make it to the pit trap unkilled. Luckily, the Ogres, being of a large size, were slowed by having to squeeze through doors that they were able to run through. With the 2 ogres on one side of the pit and our heroes on the other, they managed to kill one of them and heavily wound the second. However, the second ogre then jumped over the pit and made to strike them down. Luckily, Mirabella was able to dispatch the ogre with a number of well placed arrows, causing it to fall backwards into the pit.

After taking stock of their wounds, healing up and catching their breath, the duo retraced their steps and searched the "ogre room", and found a few items and some gold in a large pile of bones.

They then continued their search and entered a room that had some sort of feral beast in it.

Despite our heroes not knowing what it was, they managed to kill it. Mirabella noticed that her blows were having no effect on the creature and only Sylvia's magic weapon was having an effect.

During this battle, Mirabella was bitten a number of times.

This almost concluded their search, with only a couple or rooms left to search. However, in one of the last rooms, they came across another Ogre!

However, our, now battle hardened heroes managed to dispatch it with relative ease and declared the basement "clear".
