Shadowlyn casts another slingstone, hitting the same rat as before and finally dropping it. (4hp, dead) Jack moves around to flank his most recent attacker, but fails to connect. Mintrik fires, but his concern over hitting the halfling or dog hampers his aim and the bolt goes low. Loskard moves in to attack, but the fast moving rodent avoids his blow. It attacks Jack again, having apparently gotten a taste for halfling, but cannot get a second bite. Shilo regrets not being a terrier, because apparently rats just aren't his foe of choice.
Feeling on a roll, Shadowlyn slings again, but with all the friends gathered around the final rat, she cannot connect. Jack, who is tired of being the dish of the day at cafe rodentia lands a solid strike, but doesn't quite bring the beast down. (5 hp) Mintrik, however, manages to get a good shot in between Loskard's legs and adds to Jacks damage to down the vermin. (4 hp, dead)
Reilin by this point has collected himself and the items he was given and moves up to the scene of the fight where he sees that Jack has been wounded more than once by the filthy vermin. He cannot determine if the halfling has suffered any infection from the foul bites.
