[QUOTE="H.M.Gimlord, post: 5916144, member: 79440"] The fire continues to spread within the apothacary, and Sworc's bloodcurtling shriek signals his demise. The group pursues the two remaining goons out into the street, but they are already running. The closest one cuts into gloom before turning tail and running. It quickly becomes apparent that giving chase is pointless. In a few minutes the fight will come back to them. The group takes this time to heal and ready for what happens next, as the crackling flames finish off what is left of the apothecary behind them. [GM]Short Rest. Everybody include healing surges spent in your next Actions block.[/GM] As could be predicted, the crowd parts and the two goons return as an enterage for Vythdar Astrix. A towering figure at 6'11" he strides down the street with a cmmanding gait. At his side, two bodyguards carry huge, double-handed swords. Everybody but Max notices an archer lope to a nearby rooftop, taking up a covered position there, ready to let an arrow fly at a moment's notice.
