Arduinne's widely flung axe unfortunately did not go unnoticed by the chanting goblin, who turned to regard her with a snarl and the crack of its (comically short) whip.  It's attention on the sorceress was cut short by the charging dwarf who had a certain gleam of murderous delight in his eye.  The goblin's face turned from rage to shock in the short moments before Dunn's axe fell heavily upon its head with a sound like cleaving through a bolt of firewood.<br/><br/>Some of the other Goblins took the time to look in the direction of the sound, most of them obviously shaken by what had just happened, though the goblin standing on the butterfly wagon shouted at them to get them back into fighting action once again.<br/><br/>The torch wielding goblins soon learned the hard way the disadvantages of charging at a woman wielding a large musket.  When the explosion sounded the gout of flame that erupted from the muzzle briefly hid the goblin that had been in front of Misti.  When the smoke and fire cleared the goblin that had been there was nowhere to be seen, though the torch (now extinguished) was laying on the ground nearby with the remnants of a green hand around it's haft.<br/><br/>The other goblin looked dumbly where its compatriot had been until a crossbow bolt lodged itself into its skull.  A stupid look passed over its eyes as if it had suddenly forgotten something important before snarling at the little gnome and lashing out again with its torch.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Attack vs. Dalkaer</div><div class="spoiler_body">Roll Result: Re Z L rolled: 1d20, adding -1to the total<br/>Comment: Attack vs Dalkaer<br/>Result: 10, <br/>Total: 9</div></div><br/>Once again the attack went wide and passed dangerously close over the gnome's head, hardly unexpected from a goblin who had a crossbow bolt sticking out of his forehead like the horn of a unicorn.  Shortly after its missed swing a bolt of magical energy flew over the table that Misti and Dalkaer had intended to use for cover and struck the goblin squarely in the chest, sending him backwards and onto the ground.  Lissa having decided it was the next-best target after the dwarf had so handily dispatched his own target.<br/><br/>The holy light that coalesced around Aria's weapon condensed as she struck her blow releasing a small burst of white light as her weapon hit its mark.  Though no blood was spilled the goblin was quickly knocked out, laying amongst its dead compatriots, perhaps the luckiest of any of the other goblins thusfar.<br/><br/>The three goblins on the cart observed the carnage for a moment before looking around at one another and hastening their attack on the cart.  One of the three abandoned its torch to pick up a barrel that was nearly as large as he was and began running with it towards the cathedral, leaving a trail of what looked like lantern oil behind him as it leaked out of the barrel.<br/><br/>Enraged, the goblin who had appeared on the butterfly wagon charged towards the closest of the group of adventurers, which unfortunately for him happened to be the angelic paladin.  He leaped towards her, dagger in both hands in an attempt to bury it somewhere vulnerable and make a meal out of the woman.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Attack vs. Aria</div><div class="spoiler_body">Roll Result: Re Z L rolled: 1d20, adding 5to the total<br/>Comment: Attack vs Aria<br/>Result: 8, <br/>Total: 13</div></div><br/>The tip snagged in one of the links of her armor and snapped off, leaving a much degraded dagger in the hands of the raging goblin.
