It was a long run south through a human Empire, and over mountains... But you arrive at the pyramids of the former empire of Nekkahara(?).
(I don't have a map of the warhammer world, so I'm just guessing where everything is.)

Sheele
"Whew... this was... a lot farther than I had expected", the somewhat comically relieved undead former assassin let out, even though she no longer even needed to breathe.
Replacing her glasses on her nose, the silverette lay her gaze upon Nehekhara, the Land of the Dead... home of the once fertile and prosperous kingdom turned barren and desolate due to centuries of war, neglect, and corruption from the dark rituals and enchantments of its long dead, yet not quite gone, master.
And it was that master, specifically, whom she seeked. If she could best it, she could take his own forces as her own, drastically increasing the Scourge's numbers, and their military might... in addition to likely doing the same for her own necromantic powers, upon learning the secrets of the master of this dead land.
Walking amidst the tombs and pyramids, Sheele attempted to sense the one who would claim dominion upon all of their inhabitants. Using my Sense Power 10 to attempt to locate the necromancer/undead spirit of the entity who rules over the dead in this dead Empire.

Turns out they are looking for you as you soon are surrounded by ten undead warriors with spear. "Lord Settra wishes to see you." One croaked out.

The silverette smiled.
"...The feeling is mutual then. Bring me to him", she said, nodding.

You are led to a pyramid where an undead lord sits on his throne.
"Greetings Outside, you have traveled far to seek an audience with Settra. Settra shall listen to your request."

Sheele
The silverette smiled faintly. "I appreciate the audience", she said, nodding. "I am Sheele... the Lich Queen, Lady of the Scourge. I aim to rule over all undead", she said in all honesty... secretly keeping her guard up in case the undead lord didn't take it well. 9 (Ef) in Acrobatics into defense. (Total ph.defense: 20)

The mood quickly grows darker. "Then it seems we are at odds. For Settra does not serve. Settra rules." He declared.

Sheele
"Indeed, and likewise", the silverette said, nodding, as she manifested her armor, helmet, and sword. "No offense meant. I just feel like I'm the most responsible, reasonable and merciful ruler of the dead out there. And I feel like an army of creatures such as us... should be only handled by one with those qualities", she said, holding up her blade. "I challenge you, Lord Settra... for rulership over your legions." Manifesting the help, plate, and Frostmourne.

Settra stands up from his throne, drawing a white hot blade. "So be it."

You manage to barely parry his strike as your own cleaves the undead lord in twain.
Only for his body to burst into a swarm of scarab beetles that begin devouring you alive! (OOC: Lose 3w or 9r)

In response, Sheele let lightning run freely throughout and outwards of her body to electrocute the bugs/the transformed dark lord! H: 9/9 P.L: 1/5
18 (Ef) in Elementalist (Weather, Force Blast), also sacrificing 2w for Draining (I'll explain it as burning myself a bit to make sure to hit all the bugs, lol) to unleash a 24 stones (2x damage, Area Effect 1 around myself, Normal and Stun damage, Draining) attack to electrocute the insects/their master.

You take out many of the bugs but a huge swarm of them escape the area.

"For one who rules as opposed to serve, I find your bravery lacking!" the Lich Queen said, swiping her blade, and projecting a lethal blast of reddish-black energy to bleed the vermin to death! H: 9/9 P.L: 1/5
