Last Stand of the Dorinthians (Chapter 2 - Illusions)

Silas ducks in, jabbing with his staff more to distract than to cause serious harm. However, if he sees an opportunity he will certainly smash a gnoll with all his might.

Kel slings his bow over his shoulder and draws his long sword "Your death stalks you through clouds of smoke Grenek" Kel spits "I am the Hunter and you are the Hunted. Prepare to DIE" the wild elf yells as he moves towards the melee combat.
 

The gnolls attack first, the one in front of Dartis missing wildly with his blow. Alexander scrambles for the goblin shield as the second gnoll hovers over him. At the last minute, Alexander swings the shield upwards defensively to block the attack. Using his improvised shield, he gets jolted as the blow meant for him is absorbed by the sheet of metal, but he remains unharmed.

Kel drops his bow and pulls his sword. He shouts his warcry and appears through the smoke, slashing deeply into the gnoll attacking Alexander. He gravely wounds the gnoll with his blade.

Silas catches the injured creature with a jab to the throat, breaking its windpipe and killing it (crit for Silas).

Dartis swings at his opponent, but misses. He at least has the satisfaction of knowing there is only one gnoll left and his allies are coming in to help. Rix still cannot make out who is who from his position, but maintains his subterfuge.
 

Dartis grins at the last gnoll as his companions begin to encircle the last opponent. Dartis swings his sword at the gnoll again.
 


Alexander spits blood... again, and knowing that he won't want to put himself for wasting precious healing, he rises from the kneeling position he adopted to counter the gnoll's blow, at the same time leaving his scimitar but retrieving his second throwing dagger from his belt, which he then launched as he did with the first at the standing enemy.

Silas nimbly dodges as the gnoll switches targets and aims for him. Silas strikes back, cracking the gnoll in the ribcage. A throwing knife from Alexander buries deeply into its chest. As it howls and attempt to remove it, Dartis and Kel finish the creature off.

The battle is over, and the gnomes reappear to now begin a fire brigade to save their homes. You take the time to retrieve your items dropped or thrown as the fire is diminished by the short humanoids.
 



"I don't know, maybe as you say your Huntress is not mine, but she's certainly got me in high esteem" he pats the elf's back in thanks...

"we are not yet finished..." he turns to one of the gnomes and asks brusquely "where did the kobolds and other scum go?"
