Combat, round 3 - COMPLETE
Round 2 complete above.
Deren continures hurling daggers, but the latest one again fails to pierce the armored brute's steel.
"Destroy the wounded one first. We do not want them on both sides of us," Aeron offers as he heals Sir Merrick's wounds. Pelor is with Aeron, and the cleric's touch heals all of the knight's wounds, leaving only scabbed over scratches.
The great armored ogre steps out through the door, not about to let you all flee and get away. He again strikes at Zirat, and though the gladiator tries to dodge, the ogre's blade opens a deep gash in the champion's side.
Shoon's eyes nearly bug out at the sight of two more ogres
"Damn it! We cannot beat them here!" He immediately retreats back in the direction of the narrow hallway, disappearing out of sight around the corner.
Zirat sidesteps, staying close to the ogre, but setting Merrick up to flank the brute. As he moves, his lashes at the ogre, but his spiked chain clanks off the heavy armor that the giant wears.
"Stand firm!" Sir Merrick steps once more into the breach and brings the attack back to the armored ogre, this time taking advantage of Zirat's position and striking at the brute from behind. The knight's polearm cuts through steel and flesh, opening a bloody wound in the ogre's back that causes him to stumble and nearly fall...
One of the other ogres appears to be regaining his sight, rubbing at his eyes with his massive hands. The closer of the two strikes out with its greatclub, but in its blind rage only smashes its club down upon the ground.
"Get back, keep them at range! We can rush them in a moment!" Ciaran fires a sudden bolt of force at the first ogre, and takes the others' confusion as a good moment to head back north, up the passage. The twin bolts of mystic energy streak through the air as Ciaran moves, unerringly striking the armored ogre. The giants lets out a massive bellow, and then stumbles against the nearby wall. Slowly, slowly, the brute tumbles crashing to the ground with a heavy thud.
