You prep your fork bomb to keep in your back pocket as a last resort.
In the meantime you start blasting skeletons. They maintain a slow
advance but you able to pick them off slowly one by one. Bones
splinter and fly apart.
During your maneuvering, you get turned around and are backed into
the corner with the hatch leading up to the upper deck. You reach
behind yourself and fumble with the latch. One skeleton manages to
get its bony claws around your ankle just as you open the hatch. You
look behind you and see a human shaped figure floating away,
illuminated in the beams of Inky's bubblebee. It is toting a small
bundle. Up above you can see the shadow of the manta ray gliding
around eating candy, and the horkosgrampus idling in the absence of
carrion or lies.
"I thank ye, gents!" cries the figure down to you as it ascends. "You
distracted the harrowkrake just long enough for me to get in that
ship and grab what I needs!" It tugs on the cord attached to its
bundle and laughs. "I shan't forget ye!" It waves and gives a little
salute.
You have a magic missile loaded and ready to go. In a moment the
figure will be out of range. You can blast it now and risk being
pulled down by the skeleton. Or you can blast the skeleton and risk
the figure getting away.
