Though Ming Fu and Lexara's valiant attempts fall short of the mark, Lilliana lays low the bloodied alien that wounded Eidolana, finishing what Lexara began, while the dark elf maiden herself brandishes her bastard sword, felling the brute in a single, well-aimed swing of her blade.<br/><br/>The last alien in the room takes aim with its rifle, and as it pulls the trigger, a calciferous spur issues from the muzzle, only to be deflected by Lilliana's armor. Without grumbling or hesitating, the alien drops the rifle while backing into the room behind it until it has its back to a wall, clearly intending to make it difficult for the escapees to flank it with their superior numbers.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, the alien facing off against Khan and Kali advances on the duo, lashing out with its claws, first at Khan, then, upon suffering his counter, instead bloodies its claws by driving them into Kali's tender flesh. Despite Kali's efforts, she's unable to draw its attention to assist Khan with his counterattack, not yet familiar enough with Khan to effectively work together as a team.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">9 damage to Kali.
