The orc accepts her divine challenge, and swings back at her, just managing to penetrate her armor.The two other remaining grunts strike at Todarr and Karis, Todarr dodging and Karis taking a modest hit.Joshua notices a faint buzzing in his ears, which gradually resolves to speech. It is Mardrick, speaking through a magic ritual. "Joshua," he says, most unhelpfully and with poor timing, "my mentor has reached Greensfen. She knows of this Tromolden - she says he cannot be trusted, and he is almost certain to see through your ruse. She recommends you extract Todarr as soon as possible."Tromolden takes one step back from Rellek, and mutters an incantation, sending the ground around Moreen and Todarr quaking. Moreen manages to withstand the intense rumbling and shaking of the earth, but Todarr is shaken up in the process.Rellek steps forward to close the gap with Tromolden once more, swinging both axes. Both miss, but his dragon breath gravely wounds the evil magic user.During the battle, the party begins to notice that many of these orcs, not just  the spider/orc, are not quite right. Some have a single human hand in place of an orc hand, while others have an eye, leg, or even part of a face from some other creature, human or otherwise. As the orcs fall, the alien parts fall off of them like chaff - whatever strange magic holds the grafted parts in place is not strong enough to survive death, apparently.Moreen misses Ox.Moreen challenges Ox.Ox attacks Moreen +9 vs AC = 23, hits, 5 damage.O1 attacks Todarr +9 vs AC = 18, misses.Oy attacks Karis +9 vs AC = 20, hits, 5 damage.Tromolden shifts south one, uses thunderburst +7 vs Fort vs Todarr (25, hit) and Moreen (8, miss).Todarr takes 1d8+4 = 6 damage and is dazed (save ends).Rellek steps up to Tromolden.Twin strike misses twice.Breath weapon hits with hunters quarry for 10 total damage.</blockquote>
