Mira, Ayjay, Jval, and Shava

Init.
Arjay 22
Mira 22
Baboons 14
Jval 13
Shava 5

Arjay rushes to Jval's aid. His bright kurki slashes into one of the baboons attacking Jval (7 points of damage). The baboon falls to the ground seriously wounded. Mira's heavy pick smashes into the head of a attacking baboon knocking it out. (9 points of damage). The frenzied beasts attack in return. Two attack Mira with one biting her leg (6 points of damage). Two attack Arjay both missing. Two continue to maul Jval (8 points of damage). Jval falls to the ground bleeding. Shava runs for cover.

Arjay curses as Jval collapses to the ground - he really doesn't need two bodies to carry back to town. Ignoring the two Baboons that attacked him for now he instead grabs at the two mauling Jval bringing his kukri to bear on one of them whilst he grabs and attempts to throw the other one away from Jvals body - at least long enough to kill one before dealing with the next...

Zhangyong, Adus, Yudhistra, and Gutpa

Zhangyong, Yudhistra, and Gutpa do a careful search of the area looking for signs of the boy. While Adus swiftly runs towards Sanjit's hut. After several minutes Zhangyong finds a torn piece of white cotton with a small blood stain. Yudhistra finds a small foot print which Zhangyong thinks could be the boy's. It appears to be headed east.

"Well, it would seem that our boy was headed in the same direction as the hut," Zhangyong says as he holds the piece of cotton tight in one hand and bounds forward on all fours. "Let us hope we are not too late!"

Yudhistra nods grimly and follows Zhangyong along the trail.

 

[National Acrobat]

Mira presses her attack on those around her, hoping to keep their attention on her instead of the others, especially the fallen one.

Mira, Ayjay, Jval, and Shava

Init.
Arjay 22
Mira 22
Baboons 14
Jval -down and bleeding-
Shava 5


Arjay and Mira attack the enraged baboons. Arjay's blade slices through the neck of one decapitating it (crit. for 15 points of damage). Mira's heavy pick slams into another baboon and sends it tumbling (8 points of damage). The baboons begin to circle the two fighters. Their red glowing eyes burn with a hateful intensity. Two attack Mira but she fends them off. Two attack Arjay with one biting his hand (4 points of damage). Shava continues to run away and the baboons ignore him and concentrate on Arjay and Mira. Jval lies in a heap at Arjay's feet with blood splattered on his white robe.

Sanjit

With is crossbow ready, Sanjit waits for a reply to his challenge. Out of the tall elephant grass emerges a young boy of around 10 years of age. He appears battered and brusied with cuts from the tall grass along his chest and arms. He walks forward a few steps and them collapses.

 

[Hob Marshmallowfoot]

Not a Devata after all...but a village boy. Sanjit approaches cautiously to examine his wounds. He will pick the child up quickly and carry him inside his hut, therein boiling some water and attempting to bind his wounds to the best of his ability. "There village boy, you will be safe with Sanjit for a while... he has magic that will save you, poor boy." (casts endurance- on the child, whom he has placed on the hut floor)

(ooc so how many Baboons are we facing? And where's my horse?

Oh and I've got Boots of Speed! and a Ring of Stablization)

Cautiously bending down Arjay slips the crystal ring from his own finger onto that of Jval hoping that its power will help the fallen man stablize.

"We achieve little by remaining her to fight these creatures" Arjay grimaced his eyes still fixed upon the circling pack "we must escape quickly, taking the bodies and hope that we outrun the beasts.

I am perhaps quicker than you are" he says to Mira "so I will stay and allow you time to make distance before I follow. If you will take Jval then I will take the Yogi

What say you? do we run or do you wish to stay and fight?"
