When the way seemed safe and clear, the group led their charges down toward the guard's entrance. This hall was essentially a sally-port, but with the size of the giants, it was big enough for all involved.When the door to the courtyard was opened, a voice shouted, "Be ready, here they come!" before being cut off by another shout of, "Hold off! It is the Adventurers!"There was a chorus of cheers. Donnell got the doors open, revealing a pile of bodies - Hill Giants and Ogres. Caine, though wounded, was on horseback, commanding what was now a small force of footmen and pikemen.He'd lost slightly more than two-thirds of his sixty men, but even with such terrible losses, spirits were high with their victory so-far. The most significant of which revealed itself as the bodies were pushed aside or climbed over - in a similar pile in front of the matching door to the east, lay the unmistakable body of an armored Fire Giant.Smolderheart was dead.[spoiler="Map"][ATTACH=full]383675[/ATTACH][/spoiler]</blockquote>
