Fengr

The claws of the Totemist tear into the near helpless barbarian guard, and he falls under him, the girallon claws tearing the life from him and leaving him a slashed up mess.

Aldis arrows fly towards the Barbarian Guard that is in front of Ford, and one finds home, sinking into the mans thigh.

Ford

Fords flailing chain continues to keep the Barbarian Guards on the defensive, It still hasn't found much in the way of damaging them.

The Barbarian guard in front of Ford looks warily at Aldi and keeps his sheild in her direction, hoping to not take much more archer fire.

In the meantime he strikes out at the Half orc once more.

Kjersti Grimsdottir

The young warrior woman let out a shriek as the blade of the axe struck home into her. Dancing backwards out of the way, she bit her lip and composed herself quickly, using the pain and turning it into rage. Her eyes narrowed as she blocked B2's blow with her axe before advancing on B4 and striking him with all weapons.

Fengr

The totemist watches as life flees from the guard's eyes with his claws buried deep in the mans neck and chest. As the body falls to the floor Fengr turns, blood dripping from his hands and arms. Once again he crouches down into his hunting position and advances towards the warrior in the bear pelt. As soon he is within range he strikes out towards the man, spraying him with blood from the fallen.

Gunnar merely grins as the overseer's actions fail to back up his words. Swinging the greataxe, he aims to put the man down quickly.

Aldi wants the barbarian dead, wondering to how many arrows her summoned set came with before she lets another few arrows fly. Perhaps she simply doesn't care; firing off as many arrows as existent into her captors.

Ford

Your trip attempt is successful(good chance you would have beaten him, so giving it up to you to advance, my bad for forgetting to do the opposed) and your chain smashes into the downed Barbarian Guard.

B2 takes his new turn to stand, provoking another attack of opportunity He swings his battle axe at ford, provided he lives through this new attack of opportunity(If memory serves me right He went, then you went then his turn again, so new round, new AoO)

B4 has been destroyed by the combined efforts of Kjersti and Valguard.

B3 also provokes, so if for some reason you would give up your attack on B2, you may take your AoO on B3.

Fengr

The maul strikes Fengr hard in the side and he can feel ribs breaking beneath its power. His vision blurs for a moment, threatening to leave him disoriented, but the totemist shakes it off, laughing.
"Whelp, eh? Hubris is not the virtue of a warrior."
He straightens and looks the Rus, still grinning like mad, then he strikes, all four claws tearing in at his opponent, aiming for the major arteries.

Gunnar grins at the bear-clad overseer's back as the man turns away from him. "I'll show you what happens when you turn your back on a warrior of Nelgaard!" Taking a step forwards to better align himself with the man, the barbarian swings his greataxe at the man with all his might.

Fengr, Gunnar, Kjersti

The Totemists claws sink into exposed flesh on the bear pelted warrior, and Kjerstis quick movements bring her hand axes to bear against him as well. Cut up and staggering a quick downstroke of Gunnars axe sends the man to his knees, and he crumples in a bloody mess as the three warriors stand around him.

Ford

When the tripped guard took the time to stand up, he found only Fords flailing chain to meet him, and his head split wide from the force of the blow. halfway up, the man crumples back to the dirt his eyes lifeless.

Ford turns and steps to the remaining barbarian guard, and narrowly misses the now quite frightened and injured man.

Valguard and Aldi

Valguards axe chop cleanly misses the man, finding nothing but air, the power of his chop sending dirt flying as his axe grazes the soft dirt.

Aldi's spear thrust finds home, the man dodging Valguard only to find the tip of that thrusting spear, and his fate looks even more grim than it had been before.

He makes a last ditch effort to swing his battle axe at Aldi, in an attempt to gain some vengeance for he and his fallen comrades

Ford's cleaving chain and subsequent movement to swing the mighty flailing weapon once again destroys the remaining Barbarian guard! The bloody chain carries rivulets of blood and even a chunk or two of flesh.

From behind the parties position, the Fighting seems to have picked up, and is threatening to spill over into the wing of the city that they are in. The gate at the far end of the wing leads out to more tilled fields, and has only a small latch on its large doors for ease of the commoners use when bringing in wagon loads of produce.

There are no sounds of fighting from outside said gate, and once outside its heavy doors freedom lies in any direction that may be traveled. The kingdom of Nelgaard is a three and a half day trek north. It is two days to make it out of the borders of the Ru land, and another day and a half to make it to Brummundal once in familiar territory.

Once outside the gate: weapons, armor, and shields are easy to find. (Feel free to take one weapon, armor and shield that suits your needs, all Mundane non masterwork in fine shape)

Here is a list of the adventuring gear available:

Bedroll- 2
Backpack-1
50' Hemp Rope- 1
10' Ladder- 1

Gunnar quickly goes about the bodies, gathering up a greatsword and a suit of scale mail. He also picks up a backpack, some rope, and the flint and steel. After donning the mail and slinging the backpack with its equipment onto his shoulder, he turns towards the others. "We can try and save more of our countrymen, or save ourselves. Since we can't know where they are if they live, I vote we save ourselves. We'll return some day and avenge each and every one of them, I swear it."

Ford regains himself and takes a few deep breaths. He removes his manacles and does a quick scan of the fallen soldiers, he grabs a breastplate and a falchion. He also cuts some strips of cloth off of one of the guards shirts, then heads out into the tilled fields.

Kjersti Grimsdottir

The rage churned inside of her as she stifled a roar outside the gates. She was following Gunnar and glancing around at all the weapons and bodies.. it was almost too much, even for the hardened warrior.

"We should stand and fight! Make them pay now while they are weak!" Kjersti asserted to Gunnar. "Who knows whom else of our clan they may have captured? I'll stop fighting when they pry this axe from my cold dead hands- For the Glory of Asgard!" She yelled, spotting the closest barbarian she didn't recognize and pouncing on him, axes barred.
