Cromwell increases his speed at the sound of battle, moving as quickly as possible through the underbrush.

Rond 4 Conclusion
As the forest begins to thin up ahead, Cromwell sees the first of the villagers Sadolath, Jimni and Archer engaged in a choatic melee with two snarling half-men.
"Goblins!" he grunts.
A couple of strides later the heads of some of the others become visable in the sunken clearing ahead. As does the melee between the knight and the remaining goblins. Although at this stage it is more of a goblin bash, with the knight down on his knees and hunched under his shield.
ooc: Cromwell is up for round 5. You will start the third point of a triangle with Nate, who you just see at the last minute as he was obscured by a tree, and Archer and co (each side of the triangle is about 20ft). Lisa and Hewik are about 20 ft directly ahead, and Oscar another 10 feet beyond them.

Sadoloth attempts to finish off the staggering goblin with a swift spin of his quarterstaff.

Round 5
Alone in the forest an small bundle of clothes snivels and wipes its nose and eyes.
Meanwhile, Lisa her hands now shaking visibly turns to Hewik and says, "I'm all right. Go and help one of the others if you wish." Hewik, javlin now in hand, looks around. All the goblins except those in the centre are either on the ground or in a melee with his friends {action held}.
To get to the goblin {m} Archer is forced to go around both Jimni and a tree {mv}. But the round about route brings him up right behind the goblin. His mighty strike {std attk} is somewhat nerfed by a stumble but its enough to drop the hapless goblin. Sadolath, for all his bravado, breathes a sigh of relief {action held}.
Jimni screams in terror before realising that 6 foot armoured behemoth pounding towards them is indeed Cromwell. The moment is, however, enough to chill the blood of the three townsfolk standing there ... What if it hadn't been ...
Cromwell takes in the carnage that surrounds him with a slow sweeping gaze {action held}. An observer might wonder what goes through his head.
The goblin's {f} eyes widen in surprise, at Oscar's quip. Its thrown a little. You my tired poor foots will lick for me i think. The goblin's attempt to snatch the advantage back from Oscar with a low strike fails, but Oscar has no such problems although the cut is only shallow {std attk}. It is enough to drain the last of the creatures courage, and it turns and runs. Or tries. Oscar's thrust {AoO} catching it between the shoulder blades and sending it crashing to the ground.
Nate gets to work demolishing the goblin's head {i} with his hammer. The goblin {j} behind him stirs and groans and Nate gives its head a pounding as well {AoO}, all the while making little snarling noises in the back of his throat.

ooc: I'm loving the way Oscar is coming out.
Oscar takes to foot and rushes to the knight's side. He will attack the lead Goblin when he get there.

Archer gives the dead goblin a kick for good measure and then, after a momentary stir of fear at seeing Cromwell come charging through the forest, smiles and nods to Sadolath and Jimni accompanied by an audible sigh.
"Good work, lads...it was just like my brother said it was...too fast to even comprehend..."
Seeing the Knight still in peril, Archer starts to move across the field to help him.
"Not done just yet, I see..."
OOC: I don't know that he'll get there in time, but he'll double-move if necessary to get there, preferrably taking another in the back of the noggin'
