The voice did not deter Bartlett, who stepped into the bedroom with his rune weapon. When he saw the source of the voice, he instinctively gripped his weapon tighter.
The speaker... or more precisely, the thing that was speaking, was in the corner of the room on a large bed... with a bizarre headboard. The arched headboard was made up of variously shaped bones, and in the center of these bones was embedded an upper half of a female zombie.
The zombie's arms hung at her sides, her entire breastbone had been cracked opened, the rib bones spreading out like wings to the left and right. Her chest cavity was completely empty, devoid of internal organs but strangely held an object like a pillow.
