What would a manipulator of corpses use to keep the hunters away? Easy question. This:
Corpse Ward
Lurking in woods
no longer in swamp
village was eaten
hag had a chomp
they must keep looking
not get put off
a goal they have
to knock the hag off
they seek and they hunt
and they stride through the fog
the dank, cold forest
no longer a bog
they stalk on in silence
following the path
the footprints on it
the village at their backs
a scent is picked up
and they start to run
the sickening thing
the smell is nearing them
and then they realize
it is approaching!
but it isn’t the hag
but it isn’t better
Ragged Remnant
nasty to the letter
it howls and it cries
it bellows and swings
rabid, blood flecked hands
strike many soft things
when all is said
only few remain
the hunter tests its head
then they go on their way
Maybe being a failed adventurer isn’t so nice, eh? Have a great day.
