The Meeting at Deepnight

Master Dwarf continue your excellent work. Merana called back in her soldier practised style. Show them an appropriate response to their greeting.

With that Merana drew her sword, dodging the poorly aimed scimitar and lunged herself.

Merana's attempt to counter attack and run the bandit through with her sword, while executed gracefully didn't account for the bandit's swinging momentum and met the empty space at the bandit's left side.

Gazza though went all out; an overly brutal smash of his warhammer at the side of the bandit's head did the trick. Just to make sure though, he brought his warhammer down at the already dropping dead bandit's head. After all, why not? Better be safe than sorry.

Seeing one of his goons being smashed to a bloody pulp and the other bleeding profusely with an arrow sticking out of his neck, the Thug decides to jump back into the fight. It wasn't the loss of his underling as much as the fact that he expected them to be cleaning their bloodied weapons and laughing over the loot that got the best of him.

He moved back near the side wall and as his lackey fell, he fired his crossbow at Gazza.

Seeing that he wasn't abandoned after all, the bandit facing Merana swings at her with his scimitar - now sporting a bloody creepy smile.

With a precise and well calculated strike, the second bandit falls by Merana's sword.

Seeing his last comrade fall, the Thug decided that this was a good time to haul ass.
"I'll get you back for this! The Welcomers don't forget nor they forgive"
He yells and turns around to flee the barn.
