Academy of Drell, Part 7

[Tokiwong]

Keith stands tall, waiting to see the first giant come into view... "Somehow I saw my death being much more simple then this..."

Intiative of 19

 

[Dalamar]

Sildarin heads at full speed after the villagers and their trackers.

 

[GnomeWorks]

Initiative: 20 + 2 = 22.

Charlotte nods silently in agreement with Keith, waiting for the first signs of giants or what ever else may be coming...

 

[Zhure]

Wasn't one of them dead? I was assuming we're still travelling toward the lead giants with their bears?

Mea culpa. Forgot to update the hit point track on that one, then forgot he was dead in the next phase. Corrected it.

 

[Zhure]

Charlotte 22
Keith 19
Travellios 18 [1180 feet altitude] <- next
Sildarin 18 (delayed) [1180 feet altitude]
Giants 5

Sildarin and Travellios fly eastward once more toward where they believe the Drell citizens to be...

Far below there are signs of a struggle. Huge gouts of crimson blood darken the white snow. Trampled areas show older snow underneath and in the center of this mess is the body of a dire bear and a small humanoid form.

Charlotte and Keith
See a single dire bear wandering toward them, nose intent on the trail of the Drell citizens. The bear is badly singed and looks like it's been chopped up a bit as well. It looks up and spots both the young human female and the male elf, and begins to hustle forward.

At the end of it's movement it's 60' away.

Giant Eagle, wounded 0, round 3, 680 feet altitude, 90' behind
Giant 1 wounded 44 (staying still? invisible)
Giant 2 dead
Giant 3 wounded 31 (gone north? Not visible)
Giant 4 wounded 58 (gone south? Not visible)
Giant 5 wounded 60 (east toward the townsfolk? not visible)
Giant 6 wounded 43 (east toward the townsfolk? not visible)
Bear 1 wounded 70 (east, near Charlotte and Keith)
Bear 2 wounded 63 (east? not visible)

Meanwhile... Paendaerig, Mortimer, Lyrique, and Rallyn ...

... push onward, making good time. In only a few hours they will have reached the tower.

 

[Dalamar]

"*gasp* ...who is it...?" Sildarin looks at the scene of battle, shedding a tear. But he understands that they must press onward for there will be more losses if the remaining bear reaches the villagers.

 

[GnomeWorks]

"So it begins..." Charlotte says grimly.

She moves forward, holding the halfspear in her hands, ready to attack the bear should it come near.

Moving up 30 feet, readying an attack against the bear if it comes within reach.

"Indeed, Charlotte, if I die, at least it was by your side," Keith rushes forward to prepare a flank with Charlotte...

Move forward 30 feet as well ready action, staying across from Charlotte for a flank.

Travellios 18 [1180 feet altitude] <- next
Sildarin 18 (delayed) [1180 feet altitude]
Charlotte 5 (readied action kicks off) <- next
Keith 5 (readied action kicks off) <- next
Giants 5

Sildarin and Travellios fly further east, leaving behind the body of the humanoid and the presumably dead dire bear.

Below they see a distant pair of specks which might be giants, following the path of the Drell citizens.

Charlotte and Keith
The bear charges...

Your readied actions interrupt. Roll to hit and damage. Flank will apply.
