		+	Two weeks after the initial invasions, the Explorers counter-attacked on two fronts, driving the undead from their territories. Their main army marched on the Gates of Narcin, and fought the undead on the field before its gates, this time sounding defeating the skeletal warriors and the flesh golem known as groot.
