In a similar move, Arog distracts the foe who would have no doubt crushed Ged from the rear, though he fails to do any damage. The zombie is too slow to do any damage to the shadowy figure however.
I am trying to figure out which enemy threatens Ged, and whether he could turn and hit it with his staff.
Is it the one SW of the hall he's in, that Leonam is attacking?
