Round Three
(this is preceded by round two, followed by round four)
Berthold extricates himself from the
zombie's flailing arms and backs up toward the well, with an eye to keeping the
zombie in sight of
Amnestria at the window.
Looking out of the north-facing window in the north bedroom,
Amnestria sends another gout of flame down at the undead monster.
Zombie 1 takes 7 fire damage! On fire, it staggers for a moment, then collapses into a smoldering heap.
"That should do it," Amnestria says with satisfaction.
Dell fails his death save.
Sora runs past
Ene, unbolts the back door and flings it wide,
Dashing with Berthold's crossbow out into the deep night, navigating in the dark with her dwarven vision, and arrives adjacent to the dying rogue.
Amnestria sees her arrive.
Seeing her chance,
Fern rushes
Morton in his chair.
Morton slams to the ground, prone.
Ene steps up and smashes at the elf with
Final Measure. The hammer thuds into the floor next to his head.
"Don't follow us!" Fern growls to
Morton and
Guilbert as she grabs the shield and runs out the door with
Ene.
Berthold sees the two figures turn south and start for the trees.
Guilbert, groping in the dark, asks the elf:
"Are you alive, Sir Morton?"
Morton groans and replies,
"I'm still alive. They just took me by surprise." Able to see in the dark, the warlock gets to his feet.
"Let me guess - that shield wasn't theirs?" Guilbert responds,
"No, Sir. Those items belonged to the cleric gentleman." Morton is already walking out the back door;
Berthold can still see him in the
Light of
Antonius' shield.
"Your prisoners are getting away!" Morton yells to the adventurers within earshot. Quickly spotting the fugitives with the glowing shield, he grimaces, calling upon all the powers of darkness and sends a beam of demonic energy at their backs.
Fern takes 4 force damage but staggers and keeps running!
"Little lesson - when people capture you to keep you safe, don't attack them!" He calls after the fleeing women.
"You're going to die out there!"
Hearing
Amnestria seemingly confirm the victory over the undead and seeing
Dell lying still on the ground,
Kazzak runs out of the bedroom and hurtles down the stairs, calling out to the elf:
"Sir Morton, please. Dell needs your healing skills right away!" Seeing that the elf is gone - only
Guilbert is in the room -
Kazzak shoves the table aside, throws down the bar, and runs through the broken door to kneel at the dying rogue's side.
"Oh, you're hurt! Dell. Dell. Stay with us. We need you."
