Re: Chapter 2: The Tribe of the Elk
Thane brings his flail to action against one of the Bear tribesmen, sundering the man to his knees as the Luskan fighter wades into battle. Hengar nods his approval at Thane's prowess and attempts to replicate the feat with his own weapon, but his rival deftly parries the blow.
Meanwhile, Arnan fires into the fray, placing an arrow into the side of one of the men. The tribesman shouts out in pain and glances down at his hip. Grabbing the arrow, he breaks off the shaft and looks up in surprise as a spry woman suddently comes vaulting over the wall, weapons at the ready. He dodges aside just in time to avoid meeting his end.
The battle atop the outlook is in full force now. Thane and Hengar are each facing off against a Bear tribsemen, their conflict illuminated by the warm glow of a low fire and the dancing jade-streak sky.
The Bear tribesman recognizes a rival tribe member, Hengar, and shouts out a few choice insults. "You dishonor your people, bringing City Folk to fight your battles. You shame your ancestors, Cutahna," the last word unfamiliar to the party, but undoubtedly unkind in meaning.
With this, the Bear tribesman brings his axe to bear, landing a vicious hits which knocks Hengar to the ground. Hengar hits hard and doesn't stir when he hits the ground. This elicits a great cheer from the three remaining tribesmen.
For his part, Thane defends against the other man's advances, but he too suffers a few glancing blows.
OOC: Hengar took 10 points of damage and is unconscious/dying. Thane took 6 points of damage. Thane and Kira are now in melee contact with three tribesmen. Arnan is on the other side of the wall.
