    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Herger and Mardo scan the ground for Fell. Nearby, an undead Ibor moans as he slowly tries to stand. Herger strides over, his axe raised. The steel of the axe sings as it descends with incredible force, splattering gore across the ground. Ibor's body twitches once and lies still forever...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Mardo's skin crawls as the bodies on the rubble-strewn ground begin to stir. Standing over the Caransil archer, Mardo grits his teeth at the job he must do. Squatting down, the Gnome slices, hacks, and saws as quickly as he can at the Elf's neck, removing the head of the once beautiful...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Thrown into battle, the garishly dressed Mardo can only wonder at the circumstances that have drawn him from the crystal river waters to this dark place. Drawing a deep breath, knees shaking, the Gnome glides through the shadows and rubble up behind the Elf locked in battle with Herger. With a...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Starhl's battle with the Erunsil wages across the stony, blood-soaked ground: Starhl's mighty thews versus the speed of the Erunsil. Starhl's heavy blade sings through the screaming wind, striking the Erunsil, the She-Elf screaming in pain. She lunges, her knees buckling, burying both blades...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    OOC: Herger missed his save and takes full damage. :uhoh: As the flames clear, Ibor staggers next to Herger, in shock at being caught in Cerendil's spell. Realization dawns on the poor human. These Elves care nothing for him, only for their own agenda. He raises his sword, only to have...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    The Erunsil twists and moves wildly with Starhl and the Wolf so near. Loosing his arrow, Valurel curses as the Snow Elf twists with some innate luck and his arrow shatters on the stony ground. OOC: Valurel misses with his bow. Starhl’s sword swings with incredible force as it impacts the...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    With heated rapidity, the battle is joined by both sides with arcane spells and cold steel. Pausing to focus himself, Lodric envisions his attack slamming into a opponent. Unrelenting. Unstoppable. OOC: Lodric casts true strike this round. Any doubts that Valurel would attack a kinswoman are...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Lodric, Valurel, Mardo, and the Wolf. OOC: Only one Elf still has a bow. They are thirty feet away. Ibor scoffs as Mardo dives behind a stone and disappears amongst the dark foliage. Fallax however, is not so confident as he scans the woods behind Lodric and Valurel. Where is that...

    Lodric, Valurel, Mardo, and the Wolf. A massive limb sweeps through the group, leaves and branches scraping. Lodric and Valurel are almost caught off guard in the darkness, but both roll low to the ground, the heavy limb passing above. Mardo, his small size a boon in the flailing branches...

    Lodric, Valurel, Mardo, and the Wolf. Creeping toward the green light, the Heroes can only wonder what the future holds. Around them, a terrible wind blows, twisting limbs and cracking trunks. The Heroes and the Orc are scraped raw by the leaves and whipping tree limbs. Crouching low to...

    Herger, Starhl, Kaela, Ladriel, and Cyz. Elrith begins to writhe in pain. His eyes widen with fear as his own doom dawns upon him. Arghhh. I hurt...the pain won't... His belly distends again as he grimaces in pain. Licking his cracked lips, he looks feebly at Kaela. The old man...hit her...
