OOC: If reduced to negative hit points, Adromon will make a stabilize self check (+4)
As he sees the big orc thud to the ground, Dunathar curses silently to himself.
~Damn this mist, it has us seperated and doubting ourselves...we must strike hard and fast if we wish to get through this alive...~
As he hears movement from the other side of the horse, he can only guess that whatever dropped the orc would be there as well. Moving quickly, he tries to use the mist to his advantage to get a jump on anyone over there.

Filbert
Filbert has been hesitant to act for the last few seconds, not sure what to do. He's about to conjure an obscuring mist of his own and flee the scene when Devan passes near him, sword drawn. With a sigh and then a nod, Filbert realises he must do something to help those in the mist.
Determined but still afraid, Filbert puts his crossbow away and draws one of his daggers, while following Devan into the mist. He hopes to heal the wounded since he's not much of a melee fighter.

--Round 5--
Dunathar moves around Zanock’s horse, heading in the direction the flashing lights came from. Staying low to the ground, just a few feet away, he comes upon another horse, with a mounted human in robes. The same human he had taken down earlier! Dunathar thrusts upwards with his shortsword at the startled human, and manages to slip his blade past his defenses [4 damage]. The human grimaces in pain, and falls backwards off his horse onto the ground. Dunathar hears but does not see his body slamming into the earth. Dunathar stays low, hiding in the mist.
Devan looks at Manzanita, Alyssa and Mirena, all standing by him with their missile weapons ready. They were in a good spot, giving them cover against the horsemen. But the horsemen didn’t look like they were coming out. And three of their number had gone into the mist. He sees Mirena looking at him, as if to ask what she should do. Devan moves towards the mist, strapping his composite bow to his back and drawing his shortsword as he goes. He passes Filbert and reaches the edge of the mist.
Mirena follows, switching weapons as she goes.
Filbert sees Devan and Mirena reach the edge of the mist. Putting his crossbow away and drawing a dagger, he moves up to stand beside Mirena, just at the edge of the mists.
Gruff voices and hoof beats approach Dunathar’s position. A gruff voice says “Muharrim is down! There are others here, and I hear more coming on foot! Prepare yourselves!”
Another voice says “Vardan, where are the downed enemy? Are they killed yet?”
Rowyn, hearing no answer to her earlier call to cease hostilities, resumes singing and moves towards the mist with her crossbow ready. She reaches the spot Filbert just vacated, 20 feet from the mist.
Alyssa (autopilot), seeing Devan, Mirena and Filbert head into the mist, switches weapons and heads there as well, staying on Filbert’s other side.
Adromon remains on the ground with his body limp and his eyes closed. He heard the call to kill him, but he can’t resist that commanding voice and remains on the ground. He waits with dread.
Zanock remains unconscious.
Manzanita holds her position, arrow ready.
A horse comes upon Dunathar, ridden by the half-orc in scalemail. The horse whinnies at Dunathar, but the rider seems not to see or notice him. The half-orc is big, and is wielding a great axe two-handed. At almost the same moment Dunathar sees the half-orc, the half-orc sees Zanock. “Here’s one!” The half-orc dismounts, wielding his great axe, preparing to administer a mighty two-handed blow on the downed orc fighter.
Then, from Adromon’s location, Dunathar hears the sickening sound of steel sliding wetly into flesh. A voice calls out “Killed this one! Is the other dead?”
Adromon:
Another voice calls out “Should we go? How many are coming? Is the other one dead yet?”
You hear a horse whinnying, and a voice calls out “On your horses!”

Adromon:
The moment Adromon feared has arrived. Adromon feels a sharp blade pierce his body deeply, and excrutiating pain fills his body before the world blacks out. One of the humans in studded leather performed a coup de grace, making an automatic critical for 11 hp damage. Adromon’s fort save of 23 beats the DC 21 to stay alive, which brings Adromon to –6 hp. The Stabilize Self skill activated automatically, with a result of 16 beating the DC 15. Adromon is unconscious and stabilized.

As the robed man falls into the mists, Dunathar knows he does not have a moment to lose, but before he can move foward to seek the fallen figure out, another mounted figure moves foward and begins to move towards Zanock.
~They are as thick as fleas in here...~
Warring with himself, he knows he can not let a companion fall by his inaction. Staying low in the mists, Dunathar moves foward toward the armored man looking for the weak spot in his armor to sink his blade into his back.
OOC: You guessed it, move in for a backstab.
