Lotus and the Cobra [IC]

[Mirth]

Zhangyong moves into the hut and sees the great snake rising up to strike the young healer as she tries to defend the unconscious young boy, who lays in a cot, with a small knife. Raising his bow, he shoots and hits the snake. Hissing with anger, the snake turns to strike out at Zhangyong but misses.

Jumping out of the snake's range just in time, Zhangyong screeches with excitement in his native tongue, [vanara]"Come to me, scaled devil! I am your death!"[/vanara] Hoping that his screams and movement will keep the python's attention on him, the brahmin lands a few feet away and fires at the snake once again.

Mira ignores the pain of the wounds, continuing to strike at the vile serpent.

 

[Hob Marshmallowfoot]

Sanjit moves into sight of the serpet and fires a bolt into its scaly body.

 

[Byrons_Ghost]

Seeing Arjay return, Yudhistra blocks him from the snake, covering him while he gets the boy to safety. He will make an attack on the snake one the boy is out, if he has an opening.

Inituative:
Zhangyong - 24
Python #1 - 16
Yudhistra - 12
Arjay - 12
Sanjit - 6
Mira - 5
Adus - 3

Zhangyong screams at the serpent in his native tough, steps back, and fires his bow. The arrow grazes the python's side (3 points of damage).

The great snake strikes at Mira but it finds her armor to tough to bite effectively.

Yudhistra's sword slashes a cut across it's jaw as he covers the young boy. (9 points of damage)

Arjay darts into the hut and grabs the boy and carries him outside. Because of the other's fighting the serpent it is unable to strike at Arjay as he does so.

A bolt from Sanjit's crossbow stabs into the snake. (6 points of damage). The snake is now bleeding from several wounds.

Mira slams two heavy blows from her pick into the python. Scales shatter under the inpact. (17 points of damage total)

Adus's heavy sword cuts a deep gash into the great snakes neck. (10 points of damage). It twists and turns in a death throw and then lies still.

[Mirth]

Zhangyong screams at the serpent in his native tounge, steps back, and fires his bow. The arrow grazes the python's side.

Adus's heavy sword cuts a deep gash into the great snakes neck. It twists and turns in a death throw and then lies still.

"There may be more outside," Zhangyong says to the others. "I will tend to the wounds of the woman and the boy, if they have any. I suggest everyone else keep their eyes open for more servants of the serpentfolk. They are watching us, I can guarantee that."

Are they targeting children? the brahmin thinks to himself as he heads outside to find the boy.

"Is it dead?" Arjay turns to see the Vanara come out of the hut "the woman seems unharmed, but I am unsure about the boy"

He steps back to allow the too healers to do their work whilst he looks to the others

"if this place is under seige" he says to Mira and her group "and the Serpents attack even within the limits of the village then our first priority must be to reinforce its defences. If we cannot protect the village then we must move the people"

OOC: Hello people. I really hate to do this but I am going to have to end this game. My work load at work has about doubled and I just cannot keep up with running 4 games and playing in one. I have to drop some of my games. I am unable to give them the attention that they and you deserve. It has been a fun game and thanks for playing. Maybe in a few months I can get back to running some more games.
