-----Sol's sword tears across another orc's chain mail, ripping the metal and spilling blood from the humanoid's belly. The orc doubles over in front of the young warrior barely hanging on to its last breaths.
-----At that point, the anger of the orcs breaks and the humanoids begin to rush the heroes bearing crude swords and spears. Sol quickly fends off a spear that almost scrapes across his neck. A moment later, another spear rakes across Sol's upper thigh barely scratching him.
-----Two more orcs close in around Raven. One jabs in, lightly stabbing the hunter in the right shoulder. The other orc brings his sword down badly scratching up Raven's back.
-----Garrison lunges forward wildly swinging his battleaxe. The movement misses any intended orcs while the woodsman barely misses a jab from an orcish spear. Another humanoid tries to decapitate him, but Garrison catches the descending weapon with the haft of his axe and throws it off.
-----Sol spins and slams himself into an orcish shield. The sudden rebound seems to throw him off balance as he careens wildly about.
-----Raven's short sword flashes out stabbing deeply into one of the orcs behind him. He insures himself of a kill as he twists the weapon. Raven then turns to fend off any more attacks of opportunity.
-----Garrison follows through with another wild swing. It is apparent that the woodsman is dazed from the combat and his own injuries.
-----Lovan steps up and promptly plants his warhammer upon the skull of an orc. Recoiling from the thud, the orc steps back shaking its head.
-----The troop of humanoids now continues to advance upon the heroes. Blood makes the stones beneath their feet slick as drops of the heroes' life mingle with those of the evil ones.
-----Sol whirls and weaves as his blade sweeps randomly around him, continually seeking orken flesh. The Stormbringer also continues to advance forward when possible.
-----"Fight, you scum!" a harsh voice yells from the high steps of a stairway at the back of the entryway. There, a fierce, strong looking half-orc stands dressed in full plate armor and carrying a huge shield.
-----Almost in response, Sol cuts into a marauding group of warriors near him. One orc avoids his blade, but the Stormbringer drops a warrior dead to the floor while maiming another.
-----Raven rips into an enemy as it tries to impale the hunter on its spear. Within a blink of an eye, the orc falls back dead.
-----"Fools! There is no fleeing this storm!" Lovan yells as he swings again. The warhammer does little to punctuate his words as the weapon misses the orcs beginning to surround him.
-----Suddenly a strange buzzing is heard and three small forms streak in from the torrent outside. The trio of small creatures flies in with one buzzing menacingly over the battle. One flaps into the chest of an orcish soldier and punches its nose stinger into the humanoid's throat. The disoriented orc begins wrestling with the creature drinking its blood.
-----Another one flies full into the face of an orc near Raven. The humanoid screams as its eye is pierced and falls as the long proboscises finds the orc's brain tissue.
-----Raven's wolf charges into the hall, pausing to growl at the foul orcs slowly advancing. It snaps at a soldier nearby, but misses.
-----Raven and Garrison swing into their next opponents at the same time. The woodsman badly hurts his enemy while Raven mortally downs his.
-----Raven then tries to return with a violent stab, but he slips in a pool of blood and nearly loses his balance. Garrison finally makes a solid connection between his weapon and the orc's head and kills it.
-----The half-orc from the stairs makes a downward slicing motion as he looks up. Immediately, something large and wide drops from the shadows of the ceiling. It falls as a loud clap of thunder sounds. In the next instant, the heroes find themselves jumping or moving slightly.
-----With a thick smack, a large weighted net hits the area in front of the door. However, to the surprise of the orcs, Raven, Sol, Garrison and Lovan stand outside its perimeter, ready to continue the fight. A whimper comes from beneath the net revealing Raven's wolf to be trapped within with several disoriented orcs.
-----The armored half-orc curses and shouts to his troop to continue the battle.
-----Sarah sees the leader emerge and thinks, 'Ah ha! Finally a target!' The sorceress quickly casts a spell and hurls three swirling rainbow discs at the half orc.
-----Raven says to Garrison, "Free the wolf and finish the trapped ones. I'll cover you." The Hunter turns to face the orcs in front of him. He lets out a loud growl and his faces turns into a snarl as all the hate and rage in Raven is released. Raven's next wave of attacks is savage and brutal.
