Perilous Jack draws the Silver Wand and flourishes it at the Geists advancing upon him.

The Wand, sensing the presence of the foul necromantic energy animating the undead monsters, flares into radiant life. The tip of the Wand flashes brilliantly, and suddenly the Geists are wreathed in auras of sparkling silver. The radiance brightens, dims, and fades away – and the Geists collapse. Only corpses remain where powerful revenants had stood a moment before. Awestruck, Jack puts the Silver Wand away and advances further into the room.

Turn to 54.
