Tehr's new spell struck thet man with force that spilled blood just as he had spilled some from Tera earlier, one of the orbs punching<em>through</em>the man leaving a small but visible hole into him as he shook and trembled, the blade in his hand shaking. Yet in a fierce thrust he buried the blade into Tehr's arm, trembling and trying to twist it in the wound. He didn't have the chance to though as Tera's own blade struck the man in the back, having taken a step to flank him having seen Tehr's step, and her strike drew blood.<br/><br/>The man's breath trembled but he collapsed to the ground between Tehr and Tera, unmoving. Tera shook herself, looking dizzy. The 1st of the assassins was dead, the life left his green eyes quickly enough and the last whack in his back had just hastened his departure from the mortal coil, Tehr's spell had already 'done him in' from the looks of it but the man had been strong enough to remain standing to deliver one vengeful blow before his own death.<br/><br/>"Are you alright?" Tera asked, looking around for other threats her fingers holding the bloody longsword. The second assassin lay crumpled on the ground from spell damage and the staff-whack, the third one's head was still separate from her body. It seemed no other attackers were coming, so Tera returned her attention to Tehr, shuddering. "We'll need to send for a healer.." She touched Tehr's arm carefully, checking it and sighing with relief. "But no signs of poison at least..." She smiled at that bit of news.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">== Combat End ==<br/>That last strike dealt Tehr 9 damage, for a total of 20 damage on him. A serious attempt on those fellows part. Tehr is free to move as normal and if you want to skip things ahead a bit, feel free certainly. I would say leveling him up to 7th before the court gathering and Dealing with Dale would be a fine move if you wish, but we'll enter the time-skip and that'll include additional level-upping at that point so upto you if you wish to do it all at once or level to 7th in this point for the bit of play at court before moving ahead.</div></div>
