Lab Coat Billy wrote: With one ogre down, that left only the foe facing down Ranwulf and Conall. Unfortunately, this ogre was without a doubt much stronger than it's brethere, for it stood over nine feel tall and even thought it was armed with little more than a makeshift club, it still managed to hold them both off for the time being, blocking sword and axe alike.

Kasra was still carrying Veranwen, who looked to be smiling, although no one could imagine why she would be smiling except for maybe the pain was making her a little delirious, away from the battle when suddenly she bumped right into something very solid. She bounced back and landed in the snow, also dumping the wounded Veranwen back onto the ground with a yelp of pain. Kasra looked up to find a ripple in the air that suddenly parted to reveal a tall, dark-skinned man in leather armor dyed multiple shades of gray, who was wearing some kind of strange, circular shoes that kept him from sinking into the snow. A hood obscured many of his features and a cloth covered most of his face save his eyes, which Kasra didn't get a very good chance to look at before she found a sword coming down at her. (Okay, I'm posting this before I forget it.  A new thread would be appreciated, though.)

Kasra rolled to the side, toward Varenwen, trying to shield her. She had no time, nor was she in a position to pull a blade. She wound up on her back, partially laying on Varenwen, which wasn't comfortable for the Elf but was certainly better than no protection at all. Lifting both hands and charging as fast as she could, she threw a fireball at the grey clad assailant. It wasn't full size or full power but it was the best she could do. She immediately began charging again as she lashed out with one boot, trying to knock him off balance as he pulled his sword out of the snow.

Conall danced around the last Ogre, trying to stay out of the way of the club and jabbing with his sword, not seeking death blows but simply trying to open as many veins as possible to weaken the creature from blood loss. (Or ochre loss, I'm not sure what flows in Ogre veins.)

(Please let me know whether Kaz was headed up the trail or down the trail.  I've asked twice now.  It is important to my strategy.)
