"They took her. These orcs have stayed back to cover their retreat!"<br/><br/>Giselle wiped blood from her mouth with the back of one hand, then grinned darkly. Winding up, she brought her mace around in a mighty two-handed swing and caved her opponent's face in. Moving to stand beside Larissa, she took a swing at the juggernaut, but it bounced harmlessly off the the haphazard array of armoured plates the creature wore, ringing with a dull metallic sound.<br/><br/>The guard looked at the to remaining orcs, even fiercer than the opponent he had just faced down, and decided he would perhaps be better served aiding a lady in distress. He hurried to Kasala's side, blushing furiously, and offered her his cloak. The elf accepted, swirling the garment around her shoulders, but made little effort to hold it closed. It may have been to keep her hands free for somatic components, though the smouldering look she gave the guard suggested there might be an ulterior motive as well.<br/><br/>Off from the woods, a hunting horn sounded. Seeing his forces depleted, the Warspeaker snarled a command at the Juggernaut and sent his spectral greataxe to attack Larissa, which cut into Larissa cruelly. He incanted another prayer to his orcish deity, pointing a finger at Larissa. A fog tried to creep in around her vision, but she managed to shrug it off. The Warspeaker wavered, as though eager to fight on, but it turned and began making its way towards the river.<br/><br/>Larissa's blade flashed out, this time managing to penetrate the giant's layers of armour. It seemed like it barely fazed the creature, but it was more than anyone had accomplished against it this night.<br/><br/>In response the Juggernaut reared back its head, slamming down into the spot where the Knight stood, but its tusks met only cobblestones which cracked under the impact. Then the beast began to back away, apparently trying to block anyone from reaching the Warspeaker. Larissa and Giselle swiped at the creature but to no avail.<br/><br/>Larissa hurled a handaxe after the creature, but it clattered to the ground.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">Giselle Attack 1: 20+5.
