"Let's get moving, the day grows late and I have not the inclination to take my rest in this place," calls out Nado, clasping the wounded warrior's arm and pulling Bragon up from his knees. Bragon's face twists in pain from the forced healing, his eyes filled with visions of glimmering strands...

--being an excerpt from "The Ascendant's Path" It is not known, at least with certainty, what became of Ulfghar when he made his way across the World Span. The distant and mysterious lands of the Precursors have a habit of swallowing up travelers and seekers, even legends such as he. Perhaps...

The battle is over. You each survey the scene. The ground about the briar tree is churned with blood and footprints. Chaufan's mangled corpse lies facedown, his spear several paces away. "It seems another of our charges has died Fintain," he mutters softly. The path from the bridge of...

Fintain darts forward, his blade sweeping down and closes his eyes at the spray of bright red blood that fills the air. The wolf is struck to the ground, whining desperately. Then, it stops moving except for the harsh sounds of laboured, gurgling breath. The creature moans. The second wolf...

(OOC: Ulfghar: The wounded wolf most distant is 100' away and is retreating. It is one range increment away so it is -2 to hit. The closer one is still able to fight effectively but is engaged with Fintain and Nado-you would be firing into a group and are subject to a -4 penalty) (OOC:Bragon...

As Ulfghar fumbles with his crossbow, Fintain hstens to Nado's side. The wolf has not pressed the attack but is snapping at his heels as it's companion continues to make it's way to the edge of the southern hedge wall. Bragon rises then, his sword caked in blood, sweat and dirt and moves...

(OOC: Sorry Fintain, you lost your action, and the wolf is more than 45' away. I will rule that you advance a full 30' feet this action instead. Same with you Ulfghar - you're still too distant to attack the wolf.) Nado's wicked blade slices out, missing the wolf by a fingerwidth. Its leaps...

(OOC: Fintain and Bragon lose their action) The first creature continues to limp away, the second growls fiercely at Nado. The Hannathri backs up, his scimitar poised to strike. "Perhaps a little help my friends!" he yells back. The wolf now advances on him. (OOC: It's Ulfghar's turn...

Nado darts in behind the retreating and bloodied wolf. His blade catches only empty air as the beast, in a desperate movement, dodges sideways. At that moment, Ulfghar's bolt careems off the shaggy pelt of the second wolf, forcing it back. It snarls and leaps back, moving past the briars and...

(OOC: Okay I'm posting Bragon's actions) Bragon's harsh, fearful voice curses out, "By the Binder's Bright Shield, get it off!" He rolls desperately, slashing his blade upwards in the same movement. The wolf darts backwards, avoiding the sword, and allowing the dusty warrior to regain his...

Eyes dark and intent, Nado follows the first wolf, now trailing a stream of blood nearly 40' distant. He closes within 10' feet of the beast. Ulfghar's bolt strikes the beast near the neck, but does not sink deep. In a heartbeat, its ripped out by the frantic creature's movements. It pounces...

Bragon stumbles badly and is thrown to the ground, a puff of dust rising with his fall. Fintain moves in, quickly slashing left and right. His blade takes the snarling beast in the left flank, but its merely a glancing blow. The beast hovers over Bragon for a split second... (OOC: The first...

(OOC: Bragon and Fintain need to take their actions...)

Ulfghar's third bolt slams into the wolf's right flank, sinking deeply. The creature howls out and is slammed sideways. It limps, noticeably shaken and wounded and starts dragging itself towards the south end of the large field. The second wolf, bloodied saliva streaming from its maw leaps...

Fintain's blade cuts through the air...but misses cleanly, the wolf springing to the side at the last second. Chaufan's assailant, maw red with blood snarls as Bragon advances and dances out of his swinging sword's reach. (OOC: End of Round 2. The first wolf has taken 25 points of damage...

The bolt flies true at the moving wolf, taking it in the high flank. The thick fur of the creature seems to provide it a degree of protection. Nado moves to pursue the wolf, his blade swiping down but misses cleanly. The wolf whirls about and drives at Fintain, snapping at his arm. (OOC...

Bragon drives his body back desperately, slashing out with his blade. It clips the wolf's shoulder. (OOC): Round one is over. The wolf has taken 19 points of damage but doesn't appear to be slowing down. Ulfghar has first action.

You quickly surround the beast, avoiding its snapping teeth and raking claws. It dodges out of the way of Nado's dismembering cut, though a fistful of fur is hacked from its chest. Fintain's blow misses the dodging creature completely. It snarls desperately continuing it course through your...

The bolt flies unerringly into the creature's thick coat but glances along its sinewy body, carving a wet and bloody path along its shoulder. It yelps, but snarling viciously pounces towards Bragon, teeth snapping. Nado moves forward, his scimitar held at his chest towards the creature, and...

(OOC): Since Bragon and Fintain haven't rolled, they go last. Nado rolls a 14+2=16 and Chaufan a 13. The creature rolls a 7+2=9. Initiative order: Ulfghar Nado Chaufan Wolf creature Fintain/Bragon Bragon and Fintain, you are each 15' away from the rushing creature, Ulfghar, 25' away...
