The cleric responded by flinging another spell at the half-orc, who completely ignored its effects in his fury.The cleric’s unholy hammer continued to smash Endo around the head, and I turned to heal his injuries with the dwindling resources of the healing-wand. Behind me, Niccoli dashed over to join Igmut, slowing in the clouds of smoke around the fire as sudden bone-sapping fatigue set in.A loud bang suddenly rang in my ears, deafening and stunning me momentarily. When I blinked the tears out of my eyes, I could see that Flynne had managed to hack down the last bronze-armoured grimlock. All of us could turn our attentions to the cleric now. Niccoli and Igmut swiftly had the final enemy backed against the wall, desperately fighting back against their two huge blades..oOo.Unseen by all of us, Flynne had drifted once more into the shadows of the rocky wall. He fired from hiding, but his arrow went wide and cracked against the wall, whilst Endo cast spells from memory and his wand at the cleric, all the while ducking the sweeps of the hammer.Both of his spells were successful, sapping the cleric of strength, as well as ringing the grimlock with dozens of gloating spirits, all desperate to tug and tear at any wounds on his body. In retaliation, the hammer bashed Endo across the temple once more, causing his knees to sag, but the stubborn wizard kept chanting.Across the cavern, the small cleric began to swing his morningstar in anger, laying a series of blows into Niccoli, who groaned, and then crashed to the floor in a pile of metal. I dashed forwards (suddenly feeling faint and tired in the strange-smelling smoke), and used the wand to keep the fighter alive. His eyes fluttered and opened once more.Flynne flung his second tanglefoot bag at the cleric, which joined the arrow in being smeared all over the wall just to the cleric’s left. Igmut, breathing heavily, swing and struck the cleric, then smashed the heavy axe into him a second time. Suddenly his breathing became even more laboured, and the toll of his many injuries began to show on the half-orc’s form.Behind me, there was a single ‘twang’, and Endo’s crossbow bolt hurtled over my shoulder to embed itself in the cleric’s eye. He gasped once, and then slumped to the floor.</blockquote>
