he throws a rock and hits Bloodthorne in the stomach.  Bloodthorne shakes it off and chuckles again.“Don’t be goin’ after me little friend, I’m the one you want,” Bloodthorne uses his longswords as a huge pair of scissors, and cuts off the giant’s head he’s standing over.  He then picks up the head and flies up over the other giants.  He uses a foot at the base of the severed head and sort of animates it, doing a shoddy ventriloquist act.“Look, I’m a big ugly giant too stupid to live,” Bloodthorne chuckles again.“Help me with this one!” the giant who threw the rock at Bloodthorne gets another one’s attention, and they both throw a rock at him.  He dodges out of the way deftly, flying back a bit to make it a harder shot.  The giants don’t follow.“You two, keep throwing.  You go after that goblin!” a giant is giving out orders to the others.“That won’t do at all…” Bloodthorne uses his sword to cut the top off the head of the giant’s head he’s holding, and reveal its brain.  He then starts to shove the grey matter into his mouth.  “Mmmm, giant brain is sooo tasty!  Don’t you all want a taste?”This sends the three giants who were organizing to continue sieging the castle into a rage-filled frenzy.“PUT THAT DOWN YOU FILTHY HUMAN!!!!” the lead giant calls out as loud and angrily as he can, and starts running toward Bloodthorne.  The other two follow behind him.Bloodthorne calmly flies backward, easily keeping pace so as to stay a bit ahead of the giants.  He keeps eating the brain and laughing. “Oh lord it tastes so good, really hits the spot.  Won’t you ‘ave some?” One of the giants was about to turn back to his post, but then Bloodthorne threw some of the brains down at them, hitting one of them in the face.“Don’t let him get away!” the giant calls out, wiping the brains out of his eye.  Another of the giants takes out his greatsword and throws it at Bloodthorne, but it flies wide.  All three of them are yelling and screaming in rage.Bloodthorne keeps flying backwards, and sees a couple of smaller forms fly up from the sides of the giants.  The forms touch two of the giants, who then take to the air and gain on him quickly.  Bloodthorne starts to fly straight up at full speed.“Can you keep up?” Bloodthorne calls down.  They fly up for 5 minutes, and the air starts to become very cold.“We gotta turn back…” one of the giants says.  Bloodthorne takes that as his queue, and punches himself in the stomach, sending all the stored up brains out of his mouth and all over the giant reluctant to follow.  Needless to say, he decided to press on, albeit with a few more curses thrown at Bloodthorne.Bloodthorne chucks the head at them finally, losing the weight so he could fly faster.  Both giants keep flying, still enraged by the disrespectful actions of Bloodthorne.Minutes pass.  The air grows colder and thinner.  The giants gasp their breaths.  Bloodthorne, being Curst and undead, keeps flying.  Icicles start to form on his and the giants’ extremities.“I can go all night boys,” Bloodthorne says.  A flash of blue light is seen below, and one of the giants begins to fall.  Another flash, and the other giant falls from the sky.  Bloodthorne stops flying up, and comes to a stop in mid-air.  A smaller form is flying up at him.Viknen.“ ‘ello chap, thanks for the ‘elp,” Bloodthorne says.“Let’s be flyin’ back down now den, it be cold up hea,” Viknen responds, his old bones chattering.  They start flying back down.“What’d you do to our friends there?” Bloodthorne asks.“De black magics be puttin’ dem to sleep!” Viknen replies.  “Everbody else be fleein’ to da Baron town.  We gotta be goin’ dere too.”“So the castle is lost… a pity,” Bloodthorne says.  They fly north away from the battle, then curve around west, then south, to head to the southern peninsula of Baron.After Viknen’s flight spell ends, Bloodthorne picks him up on his back and flies the rest of the way.  The soft rain a quiet chorus.So… really… where is Grog?  What’s next?  Find out about juiced up kobolds, genetically engineered goblins, and other such goodness next time!</blockquote>
