The group went back to the tomb, the journey was uneventful untill they heard a rummaging noise coming from one of the side rooms, along with angry mumbling '...try and find a new live to life, try and be independent. god I am filled with great ideas, reduced to grave robbing.' The voice stopped for a moment 'Who's there?' it said cautiously.
bom saw a hansav, looked quite thin his body was black with dark orange stripes, he had his back to a wall holding a knife ready to fight 'I find that very unlikely, I just am here to get... stuff' The hansav was wearing leather armour and was covered in many pouches.
Ivaan's brow furrowed, saying "Grave robbing?" as he walked through the door.
Ivaan looked him up and down. He was certainly in the right get up to be a thief.
Ivaan returned through the door to William, muttering to him.
"There's a grave robber through there. We could try and arrest him for disturbing the tombs of these people, or we could ask for his help for the digging, in exchange for our discretion, perhaps?"

The trip back to the tomb had been uneventful. The ash that swirled around William slowly appeared to grow; he discovered it was because he was breathing out ash for some reason. It was an interesting if not an odd discovery, but as soon as he became aware of it stopped. '...try and find a new live to life....Who's there?' The voice said sounding cautious.
Bom spoke first looking around the corner. "Friends." William recognized the voice the seconds time it spoke, it sounded like an Hansav. 'I find that very unlikely, I just am here to get... stuff' Ivaan then stepped through the door, and then returned whispering to him. "There's a grave robber through there....perhaps?" William nodded, they could use a fresh pair of hands.
William stepped around the corner, his armour shining and the ash around him swirling. He saw that the Hansav was wearing leather armour, and was covered in many pouches. "So you are here to rob this persons grave huh? That is a crime is it not?" He asked sounding very stern.

'Like the yama care about the dead, even if they did, you can't touch this. Just leave me to my grave robbing and I will leave you to yours' William looked annoyed. "You have no idea what just happened here do you? There is an ancient lich buried here, with who we just fought. We are here to collect his head now, and there is nothing of value here. Though if you want money... I could offer you a job." William had a dangerous looking smile on his face.
"Not so much grave robbing in our case," Reetch said aloud, squeezing between Bom, William and Ivaan to get a glimpse of the Hansav.
"More like body-snatching, technically illegal all the same. Can't say I'm that attached to the idea, but if stops the locals from treating us like horseshit then I'm willing to give it a try."
"More like body-snatching, technically illegal all the same. Can't say I'm that attached to the idea, but if stops the locals from treating us like horseshit then I'm willing to give it a try."
The hansav's hypothetical eye brow raised even higher 'I like money, also some of this stuff is made form mahogany, most of it is burned to ash but a couple of planks and I can make some nice miniatures to sell. If you know what your looking for you can find nice things in any pile of rouble. So what do you want me to do and how much money will I get?' The hansav still hadn't lowered his gaurd.
"More like body-snatching, technically illegal all the same. Can't say I'm that attached to the idea, but if stops the locals from treating us like horseshit then I'm willing to give it a try."
'body snatching and lich, well I would like some nice pay for that.'

Ivaan and William seemed to take issue with the hansav's behaviour. Bom, of all people, wasn't about to start pointing fingers at a robber.
"Just leave me to my grave robbing and I will leave you to yours"
It took him a moment to realise what the Hansav was implying.
"If you know what your looking for you can find nice things in any pile of rouble. So what do you want me to do and how much money will I get?"
"Oh, we aren't here to rob"... Weren't we? Bom considered it for a moment. "-say, did you happen to see anyone else down here?"

Rias just stood to the back, stifling a snicker at the situation with the Hansav
Karen just kept walking,"I'm going on a head to see if theres been any movement we need to be wary of" she said and headed down the passage.

Ivaan shot Bom a warning shot "We are not here to desecrate these people's remains. They did nothing to deserve having their final resting places tampered with." Ivaan limped out in a huff, not wanting to have to see the desecration taking place.
Ivaan followed Rias, he couldn't dig but he had regained some of his energy and his conduits weren't feeling as fried as they had before. Ivaan looked at Rias carefully, trying to discern how she was feeling, "If you need some time away, I'm sure William wouldn't object. These are big changes, it's natural for some people to have averse feelings to it." Ivaan reached the collapsed tomb with Rias and sat down on a slab.
"Just so long as you come back to us." Ivaan said, smiling warmly, quite a feat with a muzzle full of canines.

Bom grinned. This sort of sentimentality for a bunch of dead bodies amused him. As Ivaan limped away, Bom wanted to make a crack about what we were all here for, but Ivaan was already gone before he had thought of a smart way to put it.
He rolled his eyes at the hansav and nodded in Ivaan's direction.
"So, you been a thief long?" he said, trying to be casual. "You seem to be quite new to the job."
Scrawny looking, shabby leather dress, a little dagger; this guy wasn't Bom's idea of a real thief.

The hansav looked offended 'OI, I am not a thief, merely a man in unfortunate circumstances. If you must know I was in a military squad the humans had organised, and my entire squad got killed. unable to return to embla unless I completed the mission and I don't have anywhere to go or many skills to make a living. So I am scavenging for stuff to sell. with the money I will buy better equipment and maybe become a spy, mercenary or just man for hire, but not a theif.'
The hansav groaned 'We were meant to deal with this mage problem, I was put in a group of individuals that were "hard to kill" first mage we ended up against caused the rest of my squad to kill each other but I got away thanks to my special skill' Just as he finished the hansav turned into a cloud, clothing and all. 'So that enough of my life, can we get back to telling me about the payment and job your offering'
'OI, I am not a thief, merely a man in unfortunate circumstances..... mercenary or just man for hire, but not a thief.' William looked surprised, it seemed they weren't the only group. The Hansav then confirmed Williams suspicions. "first mage we ended up against caused the rest of my squad to kill each other but I got away thanks to my special skill' The hansav turned into a cloud. 'So that enough of my life, can we get back to telling me about the payment and job your offering.' He nodded.
"Well the job I offer you is a very simple one, you see we are also one of the groups sent to deal with the mage threat. However we have been quite successful up until now, and seeing as you also have a special skill. I would like to offer you a positions in the group." The ash around William seemed to form an ash armor. "And if you accept and survive the mission. I will offer you a reward, I am quite wealthy you see." William still looked a bit stern, he wanted to make sure the Hansav knew who led the party.
