[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 7969803, member: 59816"] Dandin was belly-down in the high grass as he watched Angis fire a quarrel into the wooden ramp-bridge as the orc sentry ran across. He stood and mocked the brute as Angis readied his axe to receive the orc's charge. The orc was so enraged by the taunt, that he missed his footing at the top of the ramp, and fell to his death between the ramp and the ledge by striking a rock on the side of his head as he fell. Angis batted aside yet another javelin thrown by an orc down near the pond. But now the dogs were coming up the trail, and Escella fired a wild eldritch bolt that missed the running houndmaster. That big orc threw two javelins at Tommi, whose armour took the worst of it, and Jynn's boy sent a stone that struck the orc in his turn. Then Tommi threw himself into the high grass, trying to stay out of sight. The houndmaster orc moved on, following his dogs toward the others. Two more orcs came up the path. One of them ran right past Tommi, but the other wondered where the lad had gone. This orc didn't want to feel one of Tommi's sling-stones, so he sniffed and gazed about until he found the boy and he grunted and leaped onto the ledge, scrambling in the loose dirt until he climbed to the top while grunting fiercely. In the crypts, the dog there had failed to get through Vairar's armour when it first bit down on him, but now it locked its jaw, twisting its head from side-to-side. Vairar felt it now and he struck the dog with his hammer while lightning coursed through his arm from his god's protective wrath. Still, the dog did not give up. The orc there broke through enough of the wall's masonry that it would be able to get at him soon. ORB5 zipped toward the hole in the depression's eastern wall. Its sensors indicated that something might be occurring there, and it calculated that it would be better to inform the others about that than to risk being broken in the conflict.
