Keith slashes at the goblin with his sword with a deadly downward stroke, aiming to slay the beast with his super duper unmatched swordsmanship skills that he has because he's a fighter and that's just what fighters do.

[SnakyDragon]

(@Aviendha) Lilliana has temporarily gone into shock from the force of the blows that the Rabblemaster is inflicting. This causes the Rabblemaster to reel up for another blow...


Which means the fighter's change of focus from orc to goblin is completely unexpected. (10/19)


The Rabblemaster turns back to Keith and attacks him.


[dice]17876[/dice]


(@Rand) One attack clangs off of your half-plate, while the other one manages to force itself through for...


[dice]17877[/dice]


3 damage. Meanwhile, the orc for reasons unknown, fades back into the darkness (disallowing an opportunity attack - it Disengaged.)


@MysticPisces There isn't really that much to say. You feel like your comrades may need some assistance.


Usually, when Keith has a blood-gargling battle roar, nothing good is happening.

Lilliana was slightly sunned by the rabblemaster's blow and stumbled back. Recovering from the hit she slashes at the remaining opponent.

With each miss, Escad grew angrier. He was not going to let the goblins escape though. From elsewhere in the cave entrance, the bard heard his fighter companion struggling to carry on. Forcing his mind to quickly find the right syllable and inflection, he tossed a Healing Word over his shoulder to his companion.

Spoiler

[dice]17960[/dice]

The spell would not rejuvenate his comrade completely, but it would at least keep him from Death's Door. He lashed out again, hoping that this attack would fell another foe.





[dice]17956[/dice]Yeah, right! Get inspired![dice]17958[/dice][dice]17959[/dice]

Escad's rapier pierced the goblin's flesh with a vicious sound, drawing an awful screech from the unfortunate creature. Although the wound sounded deadly, it did not prove fatal. There was still one uninjured goblin next to this mortally wounded goblin.


@Rand, take another 5 HP with that meager potion of yours.

Lilliana watched the bard mortally wound one of the goblins as the warrior missed a swing at the other. Even though they seemed to have the situation under control she sprinted over to help, lashing out at the remaining opponent.

As Lilliana swung at the goblin she stumbled and was thrown off balance, allowing the goblin to easily doge her assault.

The goblin that has been completely untouched up to this point stops after being missed three times.

With an expression of complete shock and awe, Escad watched as the uninjured goblin leaped at the fighter with his daggers, dropping the man on the spot. The nobleman would never have expected that kind of strength to come from a simple goblin. Gruumsh must truly have blessed that attack. It fell to the bard to avenge his fallen comrade. With the light of the lantern swinging wildly in his hand, Escad took a step out to the side and leaped into the air, his right hand thrusting straight at the goblin's head. As the bard landed with grace, his arm was cocked unnaturally high. Looking up, he realized that his all-or-nothing maneuver had worked. The goblin was dead and the the mortally wounded one had run away to die in peace. The skirmish was over.

Spoiler

[dice]18106[/dice][dice]18107[/dice]

Unfortunately, both sides had suffered losses. The fighter was down and unconscious, but Lilliana seemed relatively unharmed in comparison. With the heat of battle gone, Escad winced as he put weight onto his wounded leg. The gash in his thigh wasn't unmanageable, but it certainly hurt. "Lilliana, let's get this guy up," he said, gesturing at the fighter with the lantern. "He's no good to anyone like this."


As the two moved the fighter into a position with his head up and his back against the wall of the cave, Escad realized the party's folly. They should never have rushed in without a plan. They had spread themselves too thin in the dark cave and because of that, their fighter was gravely wounded. It was the rogue's fault for running ahead of the others, but Escad was not going to say that to her face. Yes, she could have gotten them all killed, but there was nothing they could do to change the past. Perhaps now she would know better than to act alone. They were companions now, whether they liked it or not, and they would have to stick together to survive. "We should probably drag him out of here and rest up a bit. We're no good to anyone if we're this beat up. Once we're outside, you should check the bodies to see if they have anything useful, and I'll clean up our equipment," he suggested. A short rest would do them good.


((I vote for a short rest. I'll play a Song of Rest so we recover extra HP, and we can use spells/potions to supplement after.


A short rest is a period of downtime, at least 1 hour long, during which a character does nothing more strenuous than eating, drinking, reading, and tending to wounds. A character can spend one or more Hit Dice at the end of a short rest, up to the character's maximum number of Hit Dice, which is equal to the character's level. For each Hit Die spent in this way, the player rolls the die and adds the character's Constitution modifier to it. The character regains hit points equal to the total. The player can decide to spend an additional Hit Die after each roll.))

As the party rested, Escad did his best to clean the weapons and armor of himself and his companions. Though this task seemed menial and very much below his station, he did it without a single complaint. It would be better to suck up his pride than to have rusted equipment from neglect. After removing the blood that was beginning to congeal from his rapier, the rogue's daggers, and the fighter's longsword and half-plate armor, Escad swore his fingers had never felt stiffer. Though it would be painful, the bard sat down with his lyre to play while the group rested. He stretched his arms and hummed a few notes as he tuned his beautifully crafted hand harp. It seemed second nature to the nobleman, who had been playing since he was very young.


Escad heaved a sigh as he opened and closed his fingers a few times. It had been a while since he had played anything, but it was time.

"Upon an icy sea, I sailed far from home.


My kinsman slain, serf and thane.


I am a wanderer alone.

I buried long ago in earth my lord and king.


Now all are gone - the ones I knew -


And now alone my soul must sing.

Carried by winter's icy breeze,


Wanderer wandering wintry seas.

This frozen earth so bright, now withers and decays,


And I must wait in silence grave,


For warmer, kinder, happier days.

Like dust into the air, all that lives must die.


But in the heart of mighty gods,


therein all hope and faith must lie.

Carried by winter's icy breeze,


Wanderer wandering wintry seas."

​

As the last chord of the song was struck, a single tear streaked down the fair cheek of the crestfallen noble. It was a song from his heart, the song of his flight from his doomed homeland frozen crystalline by a dragon. He sniffled loudly. "I think that's enough music for now," he suggested, strapping his lyre back to his pack. "Did you find anything?" he asked the rogue, trying to change the subject as the fighter got up and strapped his sword to his back.
