[QUOTE="Ciaran, post: 481867, member: 756"] The hounds look up and growl, the sound oddly muted by the swirling, unnatural smoke. The orcs look in your direction. Fortunately, you and the soldiers are able to duck into a convenient crevice. Seeing nothing, the orcs pull the hounds away and move off in search of more corpses to loot. You lead the soldiers out of the crevice and continue on. More bodies come into view, most of them belonging to the human army. The soldiers stop to grab some additional gear from dead knights; you can easily salvage a sword, dagger, and small shield, though armor would take too much time and effort to obtain. A couple of other stray soldiers also hook up with your group. Their pale, sweaty faces tell you all that you need to know about the progress of the battle. And then the head of the pass looms before you. The clash of arms grows louder, though not loud enough; the battle seems one-sided, echoing with orcish cries of anger and of glee. You find cover behind a rampart of bodies. Ahead, a tight knot of outnumbered human spearmen protects a handful of officers and knights. Orcs throw themselves against the soldiers in living waves, and each wave drags at least one soldier down. Beyond the fight, the smoke lies especially thick. Dull red light permeates the smoke, flaring at irregular intervals into fiery brilliance. What do you do? [/QUOTE]
