[QUOTE="hewligan, post: 3944251, member: 19688"] [b]Round 2: The End is Messy[/b] The goblins' earlier frenzied excitement, their seeming delight at being able to hack and saw and burn has faded. Those of you who understand some of their tongue can hear them shout in confusion and a growing sense of fear as they attack. As a body they seem to be trying to move towards the door you entered through, but they are not in flight yet, still arguing over the best course of action as they continue to respond to your attacks. In their native tongue, those of you that understand catch the following: "These longshanks, they are the ones that killed our brothers" and "We must tell the master!" and "Let us warn him. We must warn him!" Their confusion seems to have slowed them a little (([URL=http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1429823]initiative of 4[/URL])). Kael wastes no time at all, feeling the arcane energies for once almost beautifully aligned with himself. He send a bolt of energy surging out from his hand and blasting the goblin he injured earlier in the chest. The little thing looks down at the blue glowing hole that has burrowed into him, and lets out a childlike cry before flopping to the ground. It is some seconds before his pained sobs are extinguished. [b]Kael kills 1 goblin, 2 remaining[/b] Jovik ducks and dives, weaving in and out of combat, his body a blur of confusing motion that tricks the goblin he faces into parrying the wrong way (([URL=http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1429849]Fails sense motive[/URL])). As the goblin dives right, Jovik flashes Goblin Hook in from the left, feeling it pierce between the crude leather armour of the cretin, and then up through the cavity of his chest before finally scraping against something hard. The goblin splutters, a wash of blood flooding from its mouth. It is well and truly dead! [b]Jovik kills 1 goblin, 1 remaining[/b] The last remaining goblin looks petrified, but seeming to realise that fleeing is not an option, stabs forward at Danth.
