Location: Old Dwarf Road Switchback
Encounter: Orcs
Angis rushed the lead orc, who slammed into the dwarf, driving him back. Drui hummed a little tune as he came up beside Angis, and to the dwarf it reminded him of the heroism of the tales of his ancestors and it warmed his aching heart. He resolved to destroy these terrible creatures and protect his friends. As another orc came up and swung it's great axe at Dandin, Angis intercepted the creature and managed to turn what would have been a killing blow into a scratch.
Titus, having missed the biggest of the orcs with a quarrel, drew his sword and rushed to skewer the creature. Morwin went ahead of him, and flew into the orc's face, then Titus plunged his sword into the creature's side. It would have killed the orc outright, but the brute twisted at the last second and cut Titus across his bicep with its own sword - a fiendish-looking scimitar that was one of a pair (the other in the orc's other hand, fending off Morwin).
Hiding in some bushes, Snake cast a spell - a puff similar to fairy dust, which wafted over the front of the cart. Two of the three orcs caught in it yawned and shook their heads to clear them, but the third sat down in the middle of the old road and lay his head to one side, fast asleep. Snake scampered down the road to take cover near some rocks.
Tommi slung a stone which cracked into the side of the head of the orc who had lifted the tarp off of Enseth and Drui. The orc spun around to see who had struck him, and Tommi squeezed himself between two large rocks, climbing up to where he could see over the road. Enseth activated and the orc looked back into the wagon with a start. Then it fell on its back as Drui created a burst of light from the back of the wagon, that fried the orc. Another orc shielded its eyes and slammed an axe into the side of the wagon as Drui ducked the blow.
Enseth climbed over the other side of the wagon and pummelled an orc into the ground, his fists hammering meaty blows until the orc lay battered and broken. Then Enseth's shield spun around, blocking the javelins thrown by another orc who had climbed the other side of the road for a better vantage-point.
Clang-Clang went the javelins, passing harmlessly over his head. ORB1 flew around him, having distracted the orc that Enseth had killed.
