As he had hoped the act of killing the challenger had caused his supporters to turn on those of Rakothûrz. Swords, and battle axes were drawn and the fight began. There was a lot of shouting and what sounded like cursing. Thorgan could only imagine what they were saying and he grinned as he now looked around and finally spotted Allassiel laying on the floor, as some of the Orcs moved into the battle. He pointed to her and then motioned for Lotharn and Pegawen who had disobeyed his desire for her and the others to stay where they had been, to stay where they were, and he made his way around the wall of the large cave or cavern slowly extinguishing the torches, and throwing him in to darkness. He would be able to move more freely that way and it didn't seem that the Orcs were noticing anything but the battle they were in. Even Rakothûrz, though wounded and weak from blood loss had to defend himself against an Orc that tried to kill him.<br/><br/>His back was turned to Throgan and Allassiel. Thorgan had learned form the best for fighting and hunting. He knew how to walk and make sure his equipment did not rattle. He reached where Allassiel was and slowly picked her up, keeping an eye on the battle of the Orcs. He could not tell if she was injured, but he felt her breathing so he knew she was alive. He turned her so she was facing him and smiled down at her. He slowly stood up and made his way into the darkness he had created and slowly made his way around to Lotharn and Pegawen.<br/><br/>That was wen all hell broke loose. Rakothûrz spotted them and roared his anger and began shouting commands. The fighting instantly stopped and confused Orcs looked around. There were many dead bodies and wounded laying around. The ruse had indeed worked and was effective. Many of the Orcs lay dead by their own hands. But now they turned and saw Thorgan with Allassiel and then Lotharn and Pegawen. "Time to go." Thorgan said, "Run." he began running with Allassiel in his arms to the cave's entrance and out into the now night. Night had fallen. The Orcs were close behind them. Lotharn turned and fired, ran, turned and fired, taking down Orc after Orc till they hit the open and then it was running as fast as they could up the ravine to its entrance.<br/><br/>As the Orcs exited the cave they were met by volley after volley of arrows from his five men. The cave mouth was not that big and soon the bodies of Orcs had to be dragged away or climbed over. That is when Timberlane appeared and he raised his staff and said a few words in the arcane speach. From the sky, Large chunks of ice fell, smashing into the Orcs with deadly results. They were like sharp pieces of ice and came down at such a speed that they pierced skin and muscle. Rakothûrz could be heard roaring his anger and giving commands, as everyone now ran for it.
