Every thing happens fast, almost perfectly.The orcs pound past Marcus, leaving their backs exposed. Then the small group of bow weilding orcs emerges from the trees. Damn!
Marcus looses at the most motionless of the archers. For a instant, he considers following the bolt across the clearing. But if the orcs overwhelm the party ... and there is Sergius the snake. The bow men wont fire into their own, willl they?
He barely waits to see if the bolt finds its mark. He drops the crossbow as he slips around the back of the tree and back along the fringes of the woods towards the the melee around the campfire. He draws his shortsword as he slips through the shadows. The wolf is a ghost flickering through the shadows beside him. With a little luck they can catch at least one of the orcs unawares.
