Having the momentum fully shifted to the party's side, and the grimlock leader close to death, there's nothing left to the battle now but outnumbering their opponents. The remaining grimlock is taken out and the leader then falls, last to be taken down. All that is left now are the fallen bodies of the grimlocks and Therav, who sits muttering near the hole he was almost dragged down into.

Calenthang lets out a feral growl as the grimlock leader is brought down. He stands over the body and snatches the creature's axe from its unresisting hands, glaring at all of those around him, daring them to argue his claim. He slides the axe in his belt and pays the grimlock no further heed.
"Rise, friend Therav," he says to the merchant, offering him a hand.

Teleri blinks away sweat and goes to pick up her bow. After slinging it into its accustomed place, she takes stock of the situation. "Anybody hurt?" she asks, coming over to the group, cleaning StormArmour's blade with a scrap of cloth before sheathing her.
"Therav? Are you alright? What possessed you to take off running like that?" she asked seriously.

As the last two creaturess fell, Ayden felt the rush of battle quickly fade from his limbs, and in its place came the searing pain from the axe blow that his first opponent had managed to land upon him.
Looking over to his shoulder, Ayden saw his blood pouring freely from the wound, but knew that the damage was not so great that he could not press on if needed. Tucking the edges of his partially ruined shirt over the wound to act as an impromptu bandage, Ayden looked across the battlefield and saw Calenthang snatch the axe from the larger foe's grasp and send a chilling glare out across the opening.
~He is definately not one I would want to have to cross...~
As both Calenthang and Teleri begin to help Therav to his feet, Ayden motions to Broddy and Dunstand as he approaches them.
"We must move fast lest whatever sent these creatures after Therav decide to send out more looking for their lost companions. Broddy, do you have any spells that allow you to sense if we are being scryed upon as we speak? If so, I beg thee cast it and tell us what you detect. Dunstand, search their bodies carefully, if you see anything that might give us a clue about who, what and where these beasts came from we need to know, and I know your enchanted lenses will help you notice things we might otherwise miss."
Seeing the gnome's bloody shirt, Ayden reached out and touched the gnome's shoulder humming the familiar notes to Finder's minor song of healing. As the warmth left his hand and fused into Broddy's body, Ayden hoped the spell could ease the gnome's pain somewhat.
As Ayden heard Teleri asking Therav what had caused him to flee into the woods like a man possessed, Ayden turned and approached the merchant. As he got closer, Ayden began to study the man's eyes, checking to see if they were those of a man alert and in control of himself, or glassy like one who is nothing more than a puppet waiting for their master to pull the strings.

Dunstand cleans his Rapier on the Leaders rags and goose to retrieve his daggers, closely inspecting the first dagger for any damage, to see if there is any reason why it should miss its target. Finding his dagger still in perfect condition the rogue snorts and makes them disappear up his sleeves. ”I think that I should ask some really pointed questions when we get back, I don’t see how these creatures could get so close too the fair with all the guards running around.” Bending low over the grimlock leader he carefully goose trough the creatures belongings, trying to find any thing of interest.

"Thanks," Broddy says as Ayden casts his healing spell on him. "But I don't have anything like that memorized. I have mostly offensive and defensive spells at the moment. It was one of the reasons I came to this fair in the first place, to see if I can expand the number of spells I have in my book, but then I found this alchemy kit..." Broddy continues to talk as he searches the bodies of the grimlocks close to him.
