Gimlak extricated himself from under the hurled bed, careful not to let the part of his mind wnder that was keeping two giant youths wracked with laughter. One of the young giants chose to pick up his laughing sister and drag her to the back of the room, further away from the fray.
A giantess and Kaligan were fighting it out in the corner. The psychic fighter stabbed her with his sword, and she thumped him hard with her club. She raised her club for a second blow and Kaligan threw her back with a telekinetic blast that had her stumbling over beds and the bodies of young giants.
Another giantess passed Kaligan by, heading north toward Duvrael. Donnel took aim with his short bow and put an arrow sharply into the giant's back.

Kahru went for the Chief's groin, but the enormous giant was used to smaller creatures trying that tactic. He stepped back and swept his spiked club down at the northman, throwing him bodily into the wall. Kahru rolled when he hit the ground, and a rock thrown across the room struck the wall where he had been.
Doc, who had to hold his hat while the Colonel's wind blew through, shot the chief twice, leaving two bloody holes in the giants chest. A ghost flew about the chieftess, terrorizing her. Then, Doc felt it was time to vamoose, so he high-tailed it back to the north hallway, as a javelin struck the ground between his legs and flipped over, stinging his behind as it tumbled along.

Finally, Gimalak was free of the bed. The dwarf stood and built a powerful psychic explosion by the chief and chieftess. The air crackled with mental engergy and the two giants were racked with pain and confusion.

The Colonel climbs over the bed, and disappears momentarily, only to appear right next to the Hill Giant Chief. Lightning courses between his hands, but the giant again eludes the Colonel.
His presence nevertheless is distracting enough for the giant that one of the two arrows released by Squire Donnel does hit the massive bulk, with devastating consequences.
"Has that boy killed the Hill Giant Chief?" wonders the Colonel, with a grin. "Nice shot, lad," he says aloud for those that might hear.

Doc felt the javelin bounce off of him. As he began to re-center himself into the combat, Doc felt the release of the Tall Rustler's soul. Can't keep killin' what's already dead. The soul's offering to the Nameless Sheriff allowed Doc to refocus his vengeful hatred on the Black Hat that was approaching him.
Doc raised his pistol. Carefully aimed. And shot him clean between the eyes before the Black Hat even knew what happened. He didn't even have time to look surprised before his soul was sent straight to the Sheriff.
Then he fired off a quick round toward the other large rustler.

The Colonel appeared in the center of the room and tried to electrocute the chief, who stepped back and kicked at him, causing the old soldier to miss, grounding his lightning into the floorboards. The Chief lifted his big spiked club, and from across the room, two arrows came from the young squire's bow. One struck the club and broke, but the other struck the giant in his bulbous nose.
The chief's eyes crossed and he wheezed. He let go of his club with one hand, and he pulled the arrow free, as if it were only an annoyance. Then he stepped forward as if he would stomp on the Colonel again, but staggered, blood flowing from his face. Then, with a gurgling sigh, he fell face-first onto the floor, dead.
The chief's wife bellowed a loud mournful wail and she climbed on the body. With one hand she lifted the chief's head and with the other, she swatted the Colonel away, absently, while saying, ::Nosnra! Wake up! Ya can't be dead! Yer too big ta die. Way too big. Nosnra?::

Duvrael watched as a big giant was rushing toward him, club held high. For a moment, he thought that this might be the end. Then the dull thuds of Doc's pistol sounded behind him, and a hole appeared between the giant's eyes. Duvrael side-stepped as the giant's club fell from her hands and she slammed into the wall and collapsed to the floor.
Doc could feel death around him. He had given little thought to how uncomfortable he found this new land he was in. The air was cooler than he was used to, the breezes empty of spirits. Death gave him comfort; now that it was rolling like a tumbleweed, he felt calm and sure. He fired his pistol again, straight and true like the shot before it. This time the second giant didn't die right away, but it was only a matter of time.
From far down the other end of the room, the youths and the adult giant (it occurred to Doc that she was probably the Nanny) threw rocks and javelins half-hearted at him, and then began to flee toward the west. One youth carried one of the laughing youths with him, but they left the other behind, rolling on the floor in giggle fits.

The Colonel is batted away and lands on his back. He's never worn a helmet, and his head hits the ground, but he remains alert. As he is hit a discharge of static electricity is released.
