The Colonel and Donnel crossed the room, and the Colonel shifted into a wind that blew past Kahru's dogs to the doorway, where he called flame down on a fleeing orc. Shockingly, the orc dove under the table, and was spared. The Colonel could see two giants and three very tall orcs (orogs) that were getting up from sleeping pallets and gathering weapons. He made to shut the doors, but they were very heavy and would take all his efforts to close. (ooc: an action!)
Then there was a shriek from the small (by giant standards) room at the back of the kitchen, and a giantess called out (in giant):
::EEK! Da kichun is infested with smalls! Killum, Husband! Kullum dead!::
A bald hill giant with bad teeth peeked out, wearing nothing but a heavy leather apron he had hastily donned, improperly tied at the back. He saw small-folk coming out of the fireplace and his face went dark and red.
::Nod in my kichen! You smallies godda die!::
He rushed across the room, vaulted the central table, while grabbing a two-foot-square cleaver off an enormous knife-rack. As he came, his shoulder brushed through Gimlak's darkness, and something left teethmarks in his bare shoulder.
::AH! It bided me! Now yoo really gonna hurd!::
While leaping the table, the giant knocked pots, pans, and a heavy stone mortar-and-pestle to the ground. Unfortunately for Donnell, he was the closest target of the giant's wrath. He held up his shield as the giant hacked into it, but it only stopped one blow before the second chopped a big notch into the shield, and nearly taking the lad's shoulder. The lad bravely stood and stabbed at the giant with his rapier, scratching his tattooed arm.

Orc2 saved vs Sacred Flame; Giant Chef did 21 to Donnel, who did 9 back and 2nd Winded for 10 healing (leaving him still at full, what with Gimlak's 13 THP.) DWolf1 missed the chef with an OA, but HoH did 9 to him. Doc and Duvrael to go. Giant Chef is right in the middle of the room.
