You feel the energy behind you, 6 dwarven feet, so 4 human ones, under ground. This energy is a burning light, akin to your breath. Maybe you can absorb, negate it?
>Double criticalAnd you indeed can. Surprisingly, it's not even taxing in energy. Perhaps you can use the surplus as something close to healing... To restore and preserve the corpses...
This one is way more taxing, but the dead dwarves should now look good enough to get exhumed and properly buried.

Due to Kek's will, the runemaster Broggi Ironbrow will join your hold for an indeterminate time scale. Rune training will be time consuming as dwarves are obsessives little autists.While your new master settle his duties, leaving the prestigious runesmith position to a still brown-bearded newcomer, you meditate and divine. What are your siblings doing?
