Now that both Aeron and Jinx are working on the second guard, Ciaran reloads and fires at the gnoll in the hallway. The bolt skitters off the wall, narrowly missing the gnoll.
Aeron, suddenly finding himself quite injured, reels a bit in pain. But the cleric of Pelor is not dismayed, and he lashes out with his morningstar. "By the Sun's power, you shall fall!" While Aeron's mace misses its mark, the guard scores another hit on the Last Prophet, opening a slash across his arm.
Deren ignores the large man's words about taking them all on and throws a dagger at the Gnoll who is currently facing away. The dagger find its mark, taking the gnoll down.
Wanting to return to help Zirat, but knowing that his chances of successfully doing so are much improved if he first revives Sir Merrick, Shoon fishes out another potion, upstoppers it, and force feeds it to the knight. "Drink, Sir Merrick! We need your strength."
Merrick stands, the worst of his wounds healed, and moves toward the southern corridor to help Zirat.
Casting a wary eye back and forth between the pair of guards in front of him and Aeron, Jinx picks the beefier of the two guards and, pointing his gnarled gnome's index finger at the man, chants a necromantic spell. Unfortunately, Jinx' aim is off, and the ray splits the air over the man's shoulder.
Twitching his face in pain, the champ throws an angry look at the gnoll, but after a quick calculation he decides that the Bugbear posses the immediate threat. Moving a step backward, Zirat lashes his chain and tries to thwack the bugbear on the torso. His aim is true, and he takes the bugbear down. The pile of bodies grows deeper.
The human captain steps forward as the bugbear falls, and his sword opens another wound upon the gladiator's body. Zirat is certainly beginning to feel the effects of his wounds.
More reinforcements surge from the south...perhaps Ciaran's spell of blindness has finally expired.
