The knight nods. "I agree, friend Darius." He joins the other swordsman, prepared to back him up. "Everyone ready?"

Braz grumbles from up in the upper tunnel something about impatient knights and then ill fate that awaits them, then calls down "Nah, I need a few more minutes to finish up the surprise I have brewing up here."

"Ready!" says Brae, thumping his quarterstaff on the floor and nodding his head.

SoulFetter extricates himself from the machinery and hefts his axe, indicating his readiness.

Braz finishes up his nasty surprise and you leave the noisy mill machines and a newly made orcrat graveyard behind. The tunnel smells of rot and bear, but soon you find the exit, which comes out on some high ground in a stand of trees near the mill complex. From here you can see the Orcrats massing for a run at the mill. They are perhaps 100' away and making for the entrance to the mill in small groups covering each other with missile weapons.

"Do we charge?" asks Brae, looking at the warriors of the group.

"Nay lad. let my trap spring on them, then when they come running out, then we charge. Or we could start picking them off from here. Take down quite a few since we have the high ground." says Braz patting his trusty crossbow and lining up a shot.

Alarion nods thoughtfully. "Those of you with bows can give them a volley or two, to soften them up. If they charge, Darius, Soulfetter, and I can return the favor."

Rhun · Nov 7, 2009

Brae nods, drawing his crossbow and fitting a bolt into the track. He looks for a good place to take cover and sights his weapon in on one of the orcrats.
