The situation becomes clear to raging Krogan. These killing machines were sent to punish Krogan and his band of brothers for the crimes they commited in theirs previous lives... It occured to Krogan that despite his growing rage, at the moment Len fell, he felt a sudden calm.. a realization that everytihng will be alright.. as if the soothing sensation was not enough. the words of his grandfather came to him.. It was something he used to say when he tought Krogan about the art of Axe wielding.... It is inevitable.. either you die or I die...
Now closing his eyes and foolowing his inner straight, Krogan grips his axe, and flawing like the water, attacks the zombie..
<Ker-THUNK!>
Krogan buries his greataxe in the Zombie Ore's skull- neatly splitting it actually.
The undead brute straightens and then blinks, one eye either side of Krogan's axe, the creature moves its jaw and mouth- as if chewing. Clears its throat, which you'll remember is mostly not there, and then says something...
"Pancakes." The Zombie Ogre is certain.
It about-turns and stomps off, prompting attacks- most of which hit and rip through the creaure's already wrecked body.
The Zombie Ogre shuffles off, with Krogan, Cinara and Kazz heading after it.
Eventually the creature comes to a halt, in a dead end, turns and sits cross-legged, it stares at you each in turn, and then slowly lowering its head... dies.
