Now the tide had truly turned. The mercenaries' lines were not reforming and now all that remained was to kill as many as they could until they were routed. Janius stepped up beside Kaleeth and accompanied her in charging towards some of the mercenaries that were keeping their distance. A lightly armoured Argonian with a shortsword in each hand was Janius' first victim. The mercenary perceived their charge just enough to try and swing to ward Janius off, but Janius was a step ahead and parried before cutting his arm and then his throat. The next had recovered from Meesei's spell more quickly; an orc with heavier armour and an axe in one hand. Janius swung at him, but he managed to step back and act in a way that Janius didn't expect. The orc stepped up, grabbed the edge of Janius' shield, and spread magical frost swiftly along its surface until in encompassed Janius' arm completely in a numbing pain. Janius tried to struggle and swing at the orc's head, but the orc simply hooked their axes together and snarled into his face as the frost drained him.

"It worked! They're failing!" Sabine observed from their position alongside the battle. Just as well, too. Sabine was stooping for stones to sling amongst the rubble of the building at this point. There was plenty of material, but her shots weren't as consistent. Still, between herself and Mirisk, the mercenaries' numbers were being sufficiently thinned by their fire.

Fendros quickly alternated his fearful look between Ahnasha and the Breton as Ahnasha slowly slipped out of consciousness. At this point, Fendros was overtaken by anger. Before the Breton could touch him, Fendros raised a foot to his stomach and pressed him against the edge of the carriage. "If you so much as harmed her, I swear upon the reclamations, I will...I will tear you ap-..." Fendros trailed off. Even though the mage was now winded and the other guards in the carriage had levelled their crossbows at Fendros, the mage seemed to have no trouble casting his spell through Fendros' leg. Fendros gritted his teeth and tried to stay awake, but soon slumped to one side as the last of his energy left him. He took one last look at the now sideways Argonian and Breton before the carriage went dark.
