The Undead Shelter

With a bunch of men and women of varying ages, Varian sat across a bonfire under the dark night.

Undead need not eat or drink but they ate without hesitation and drank with joy.

They should not be able to feel emotions but maybe they were faking it so much that they're believing those emotions were real.

Varian could not tell. But he was happy to have some normal company despite their abnormal origins.

The group wasn't very welcoming at first. But unlike, other undead, they didn't show hostility.

Instead, they maintained their distance and seemed like they'd be happy just to send him away.

But under the urging of Klynster, Varian began to narrate stories about the outside world. 

Like a magic spell was performed, one by one, the Undead began to gather around him, asking more things about the colorful, beautiful world outside this purgatory.

The children liked the new stories he told and played with him whenever they could.
