He makes it clear that the knives can be employed as cutting implements with but a moment’s notice should the soldier attempt to move.Sanae continues to cut a swath of death around her. Two more soldiers fall before her furious onslaught. Kajalaketh looks genuinely frightened now. Attempting to control his fear, he glares intently at her. His malice radiates from him like a corona. Sanae feels the power of his mind overwhelming hers, forcing an incoherent jumble of images and sensations on her that destroys her ability to act normally. The energy ring surrounding her continues to fire arcs of electricity, but in her current state, she barely feels the burning.The patrol boat crew seems cowed and withdraws further, but it is difficult to say if Xavier’s words or Sanae’s fury are the cause. Xavier’s thrust against one of the soldiers is deftly parried, but the soldier’s riposte is no more effective. The soldier’s companion takes advantage of Xavier’s momentary distraction to get a blow in under his defenses, leaving a long gash down Xavier’s side. The third soldier, spotting Erin’s approach and wanting to get out of reach of Sanae’s deadly blade, backs up and waits to engage the artificer. Erin gingerly makes her way between the crackling ring of electricity and Xavier. Before she can raise her flail for a strike, the soldier swings his scimitar, cutting into her arm deeply.‘He has no name’ recovers the surrendered soldier’s weapons. Between dog and Eff Flat, the prisoner seems singularly disinclined to object. Unfotunately, the canopy obscures the warforged's view of the battle. He will either need to move forward or lean out over one side or the other to get a better view. From his current position, he can make out Sanae and Kajalaketh if he leans out the port side or Xavier and Erin if he goes to the starboard side.Old Borden once again calls on the gods to aid him and it appears that this time they answer his prayers. Kajalaketh stands rigid, frozen in place.

Xavier takes 10 hp damage (critical hit!) from the soldier at L9. Erin takes 7 hp damage (threat, but unconfirmed) from the soldier at K7.
