Combat, round 6
The two remaining guards continue their attacks, one striking at Ragnok and one striking against Two Axe. Ragnok's armor again turns the blow, but Two Axe takes a glancing blow from one guard's shortsword.
You can all hear the calls from outside the western doorway where it sounds as though the other guard is calling for reinforcements.
Raising his loaded crossbow, Verdis says to the others in a stage whisper,"Armored men approaching from the rear!"
Otto, his blade in hand, turns and steps back toward Verdis, taking a position next to the warlock.
Coraine shakes his head. "When it rains it pours," he says, and moves back down the corridor to meet the reinforcements coming from the rear, his armor clanking loudly all the while.
Two Axe stands his ground and attacks with both ends of his axe, now. The guard dodges the first swing, but suffers a bloody slash from Two Axe's second strike.
Marco quickly thinks through all of the curative magics he currently has memorized, and comes to the realization that this combat could end up going very badly. Having a bad feeling, the archivist begins casting a protective spell and hopes he doesn't have to get involved in close combat.
Dara continues her attacks, hoping to defeat the remaining guards quickly, so they can prepare for the reinforcements. “That was quick. I had hoped we have a little more time...” She brings her falchion down hard, finishing the guard that Two Axe had wounded.
Ragnok growls and slashes at the last guard with Norryjar. The waraxe strikes solidly, and the man's head goes bouncing to the ground.
