[QUOTE="Guilt Puppy, post: 2138464, member: 6521"] Oliver's first swing of the sword misses its target, but the second sweeps through the being directly. He can feel for a moment a soft resistance, which releases quickly as his adversary dissipates, and the hailstones return to their normal course through the space which it once occupied. As he turns to look again at the raging growth of earth, he recalls a legend of the region... [i]Ran[/i], the Father Stag, Guardian of the Glades, and of... something else. Some detail just out of mind's reach, part of some other lore too remote to commit to memory. Owl and horse and fish and stag... Raven, meanwhile, steps and aims between the trees, finding a clear window to target the stag. His first arrow lands directly in the creature's throat, though it seems to inflict no particularly vital damage; the second gouges briefly down its chest; the third sails harmlessly through its twisting antlers.
