[QUOTE="Morgaine, post: 209378, member: 2393"] Inside, Xenia runs full tilt into a man slightly shorter than her 6’ frame, shield leveled into his chest and stomach. They trample back into a curtained alcove and the sounds of a struggle can be heard over the din in the main room. The greasy, filthy dwarf/leader stands toe-to-toe with Borin, hurling vile insult upon insult at the already raving barbarian. Some of the local patrons look horrified as they learn the translations of the dwarven obscenities. Borin charges at the ragged Dwarf and they tumble to the floor, also landing behind the thick blue curtain. The curtain sways and flaps haphazardly, occasionally revealing the wrestling match beyond. Periodically, the patrons glimpse a foot or arm jabbing through the gap, but it is impossible to discern to whom they belong. Intermingled with unintelligible grunts and groans, are the sharp sounds of the dwarf still swearing violently at Borin. Some allege they also hear the distinct sound of bones breaking, but none venture into the alcove to check. Kalina and Marja rush back into the storage room to find Xenia still repeatedly punching a young man in the face, though he is incapacitated and nearly unconscious. Borin is sitting atop a cursing dwarf who is bleeding profusely from his broken nose yet still struggling with him. Marja casts [I]ice knife[/I] at the bounty hunter, watching the icy dagger spring forth from her hand. Unfortunately, because of the entanglement, she misses her target and looks on in horror as the glass-like shards burst in midair. As luck would have it, no one is seriously injured. No one except Marja, herself, that is. She gasps in pain as the shards bury themselves in her skin. She shivers uncontrollably as they melt into her bloodstream. Admittedly, this was less than effective. Ultimately, Borin manages to subdue his insolent opponent, one last fist to his mouth renders it useless. The party manages to bind the bounty hunters in their own shackles. They drag all six mercenaries into the back room where Deke carefully searches their possessions and weapons. He finds little of value, but does take their remaining wanted posters. While deciding what to do with the outsiders, an old friend of Morgaine’s grandmother offers to accompany the gang to the town jail. Being a retired (and still honorary) member of the city Guard, it does not take much convincing that the bounty hunters should be charged with destruction of property. In the ensuing confusion, the townspeople gather around Morgaine, hugging her and inquiring about the reason the motley crew is after her. Borin exhaustedly slumps in a chair, demanding beer.
