Curious occurence last night. Went to find Marquie and discovered her, an Amazon, a lunatic, and a group from Windstorm under siege by zombies and other creatures of darkness. I killed a few zombies and gave Marquie a mace. I thought I taught her better than to fight zombies with daggers, but she didnt happen to have one on her. Perhaps get her a bag of holding for the holidays? After the zombies went down we had to fight off a dragon riding sorceress, harpies and some hellhounds. It was interesting to say the least. Still not sure what caused all of that chaos, but will investigate further. Havent seen Nic about lately but I've been keeping the castle going as best I can in her absense, seeing the fires keep burning and no one wants for anything.
