[QUOTE="Medriev, post: 4734937, member: 21864"] [b]Chapter 22 - The Tower of Mysteries (Part 6)[/b] Enlishia raised her bow and loosed an arrow into the next norker as it came forward. It lurched backward but then snarled and came forward again. She loosed another arrow but this time the creature lashed out with its axe and swatted the arrow from the air. The goblin creature fixed the ranger with a predatory glare and then started forward again. As it did, it hollered a high, ululating battle cry that the other goblins took up.
