Horbin crows, then fires a searing light that completely misses.Zeebo decides it's just about time he got in on this one himself and fires off a volley of magic missiles.  They streak in on Chemnu but fizzle when they hit what the Mayor recognizes as a shield spell.  Stick to the ones your spells can affect, he tells himself grimly, and touches Horbin.  The cleric turns invisible, but almost immediately reappears as he keeps casting spells against the Bile Lord.Then Thrush is charging with a roar, swinging his gleaming greatsword at Chemnu.  He fails to connect, and the Bile Lord snarls, "You will die slowly for your treason, Thrush."  Then the Bile Lord fires off a hold person at Angelfire, which he manages to throw off.Axon and Axel seem to fight incredibly well from flanking and they seem to be incredibly good at flanking.  They tumble around Angelfire and aim terrible blows at him, but he's psionically displaced and most of them miss.  Every one that Axon lands inflicts horribly damaging wounds, often piercing vital areas.  All the worst blows threaten to knock him from his feet, but Angelfire manages to brace himself against it and absorb the worst of them.  Lionel and Habiskis are both there, too, stabbing and slashing at the two nimblewrights from flanking, both hitting Axon and inflicting a small amount of damage, but it's clear that the main event is Anglefire.  He's an immensely powerful warrior, and he throws all his puissance into a series of hatchet-like blows with his falchion, landing first one and then another on Axon's head.  The second one drops Axon and Angelfire lets the blow carry him around to Axel, dealing a ringing blow to the other construct.  Then, as Chemnu gestures, a gigantic hand appears in the air and smacks Angelfire, making his ears ring!  Axel cries out in dismay, moves 5' to flank Angelfire with the Bile Lord, and full attacks.  His deadly-accurate blows are wild, probably due to his upset at his 'brother' falling (can constructs cry?), and only one of them lands.  And then Habiskis lends a unicorn dagger to Axel's back, and the other nimblewright falls as well!"Well now," says Angelfire, "that helps."Chemnu glares....Next Time: Everyone against Chemnu!!!</blockquote>
