We didn’t encounter an incubus for the rest of that level, but they did pop up from time to time.

Slothfart teased Jen mercilessly. “His eyes are up THERE, Jen!”

“SHUT UP!” Jen would shout and then blush some more.

Every time my cooldown for Gravesite ended, I would destroy the old tombstone and create a new one. It saved us precious seconds in battle, and helped us keep moving efficiently through the dungeon.

Once we defeated the tenth-floor boss, we received slightly better loot. I scored a pair of bracers with +8 armor, +1 Intelligence, and +1 Stamina – a modest upgrade from my old pair of wrist guards.

We were on the 12th floor battling an ogre when I felt a stiff breeze at my back. Which was odd, since we hadn’t felt any wind the entire time we’d been down here.

I whirled around, expecting an air elemental – and instead saw something far, far worse.

A woman was hovering in the air a hundred feet away – and she wore the grey cloak of an Air Mage.

“Oh SHIT!” I yelled in panic.

- Goddess, no! Alaria cried out inside my head.

Jen looked over in alarm. “What?”

“There’s some people after me – but how the fuck did they get in here?!”

Then I saw both the Monk and the Shaman emerge from two of the oversized windows far behind us. The Air Mage must have flown them down through the atrium.

Dammit…

Jen glanced over her shoulders and saw who I was looking at. “Who are they?”

“Bounty hunters,” I said as I kept Soul-Sucking the ogre.

“What?!”

“I got into debt to a mob boss.”

“Inside the game?!”

“Yeah. It’s a long story.”

“Have they been chasing you the entire time you’ve been in Vos?!”

“…um… yeah…” I admitted hesitantly, since I knew where the conversation was about to go.

“Don’t you think that’s something you might have told us BEFORE we came in here with you?!” Jen said angrily.

“I’m sorry! They’re NPCs, I never thought they could get in here!”

“Well, apparently the game is making an exception for you!”

“I’m going to need your guys’ help.”

“We’ve kind of got an ogre problem right now!”

“I realize that, but trust me, we’re about to have a bigger one on our hands. I can’t beat them alone.”

“What do you mean you can’t – ”

Jen must have selected them, because she immediately glared at me.

“Two Level 40s and a 50?! Really?!”

“I’m sorry to pull you into this, but – ”

Jen shouted at Richard, Russell, and Slothfart. “GUYS! We’ve got trouble on our six!”

“Kind of busy here, luv!” Russell yelled happily as he dodged the ogre’s steel-spiked club.

“It’s about to get a lot busier! Dumbass Warlock didn’t tell us about the bounty hunters after him!”

“Hey!” I said, annoyed.

Slothfart perked up. “Bounty hunters?! Like Dog the Bounty Hunter, or Boba Fett, or – ”

“Take a look for yourself!” Jen yelled.

The Monk walked up casually and stopped about 20 feet away from me. The Shaman and the Air Mage came to a halt behind him.

“Adventurers,” Zoran addressed the group, “you have a thief in your midst.
