One of the xivorts slumps to the ground, various thrown weapons sticking out of its body. The others charge across the clearing towards the group.
As Wat limbers up Sabynha a large hand reaches out of thin air and grabs him by the throat. It claps down on the invoker weakening him at the knees and cutting off his air circulation, making breathing the main focus of his concentration.
Moments later their is a woosh of air at Gray's side and the leering face of Fiddlesticks appears at his side. Gray strikes out with his fists. The strike is more than instinctive. It is a compulsion of his will and causes the strangest of sensations, warping his reality.
"Missed me! Should have kissed me instead Dead Head!" The poorly rhymed insults do not help the suddenly head splitting migraine that threatens to tear Gray's mind apart.
When one of the xivorts reach Gray, too late he realises that the leprechaun is actually behind him and not beside him at all. The blue skinned twisted excuse for an orange eyed gnome slashes at the monk's gut with its blade, drawing a line of blood.
Th other xivort reaches Sabynha with a slashing attack while her legs still tingle with pins and needles from Soryth's spell driving its blade into her thigh.
Another xivort arrives rushing from the edge of the clearing, drawing its blade and screeching:
"FOr Queen Soryth!"
