Chapter 3: Night of the Green Moon

Igbork lets loose with an array of arrows, one of which hits the attacker.

Atticus moves up to the closest incoming warrior and with a heavy thrust skewers the attacker.

The last enemy gets a horrible burst of lightning from Koram before Haitith charges forward and ends his life.

You stand there for only a moment when you hear cries from the other side of the rockloom.

Torch-wielding raiders hack and bludgeon people who were celebrating just minutes before. The leaders of the four Broken Tusk houses shout for their followers to flee toward the Gornok River. Distant archers, obscured by darkness, spray volleys of arrows into the fleeing crowd. The full moon casts a pale and sickly light on the faces of the pitiless raiders as they hurl sacks of burning pitch into the encampment. One burnbearer has managed to mount a mammoth and set its fur ablaze. The rider’s war cry is eclipsed only by the screeches of the flaming mammoth.

You can see Nakta the healer help Wipa out of harms way while she screams that Wipa has gone into labor.

Four more assailants are coming from the other side while one of your broken tusk hunters have joined the fray with you.

Grom scurries all the way across the batltefield, reaching the attackers. They ignore the small rodent though and runs ahead.

The first hunter runs forward and throws a spear at Igbork and another runs forward does the same to Koram. Both spears hits their intended targets.

Another volley of arrows escape Igbork’s bow, though this time he is less accurate. Possibly due to his injury, still one arrow hits it mark.

Then Atticus runs forward and slashes at the closest enemy. He then raises his shield.

The enemies squad leader charges forward and throws his spear at Atticus. But the fighter deftly dodges the missile.

The last of the attackers charges in and moves into position to flank Atticus.

Haititih moves back towards the attackers while Koram puts some healing salve on the worst of his own and Igbork’s wounds.

The hunter, which you now recognize as one named Katjuk, charges into melee and clubs at the last attacker to arrive. The burnbearer is too focused on Atticus and the hunters greatclub hits him right in the back of the head hard enough to split the skull.
