[QUOTE="Hrothgar, post: 2587292, member: 22226"] [B]Starhl, Brian, and Valurel[/B] Starhl closes the few yards between him and the orc quickly. His battleaxe crashes into the orc, catches on the orc's vardatch, and glances from the orc's armor. The orc turns and snarls at this new threat. Without warning a ghostly shape springs from the trees with a snarl. Landing on the orc's back, the beast's feral claws rake metal with a piercing shriek and sink into the flesh around the orc's neck. The orc throws back its head in pain, its howl cut short as Brian's fist dashes into its skull. The orc drops lifeless to the ground. The clamor from the village is appalling. The legate sits aside his black destrier watching impassionately as women and children scream in terror and several of Caft's men are hefted by orcs and skewered on makeshift poles. They scream in pain, straining to reach their familes as their entrails hang in the dirt. Behind the legate stands a tall, rangy orc, its form almost lost in shadow as it looks in with either disinterest or disgust. [B]Kaela and Reznik[/B] Reznik listens intently. The dull roar wanes and ebbs, its source some distance away. Reznik places his ear against the wooden ceiling of the tunnel's end. The source of the dull roar becomes apparant: Caft. Orc laughter, the blat of orc horns, the screams of the villagers. The horror of the Shadow has descended on Caft. [COLOR=Olive]Kaela?[/COLOR] Aislinn whispers in the dark. [COLOR=Olive]Promise me you'll help my mom? Don't let Lorne get her. You will, won't you?[/COLOR] Aislinn waits expectantly, half-fearing Kaela's response. Reznik presses against the wooden ceiling. It is heavy, that is for certain. Pushing with more force, Reznik shifts the object, enough to see the object's edge. A rain barrel. Covering the tunnels exit. But, what lies on the other side?
