It sticks in the animal's side, but rather than quietly and obligingly passing on, the boar gives a pained, anrgy gasp and re-awakens. Its revival is short-lived, however. As it attempts to rise, giant Daylily smacks it with his massive hammer, breaking the creature's neck with an audible snap. Its head dangling at a greusomely unnatural angle, the boar falls back to the ground, clearly finished. The deepening red of the quickly-sinking sun only makes the creature's death seem all the bloodier.[gm]Quioan didn't do enough damage to kill it, but since Daylily was going to get an AoO as the boar stood, could only miss it on a natural 1, and then three other people could still act, I couldn't keep fighting the inevitable.120 pork-rindy XP apiece, you bloody efficient killers. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />[/gm]Ryall and Roug crawl back into the clearing slowly."I dunno what scares me more," Roug says, "All these animal attacks, or these friends of yours." Roug stares frightfully up at the still-enlarged Daylily."I don't care," Ryall says, shuffling to his feet. "But I think you all proved I'm just gonna be in the way if'n I keep on with you." the peasant pulls off his key-necklace and holds it out. "I've had my excitement. Here's the key you'll need ta prove it's my house, if you can leave word at that Inn of yours once you've..." he looks at the mutilated boar and gulps loudly, "Taken care of business?""Well, it's my house, too," Roug says, pulling his own key out of his belt pouch.</blockquote>
