"No! She has to come with us!" Kili had struggled against Thorin's vice-like grip, but he'd no choice. Thorin was stronger, and he wasn't caving. "Why won't she come?!" If nothing else, Kili wished to stay and fight. Leaving felt cowardly, and he feared for his godmother's life. "Thorin! We must stop her!" Despite Kili's protests, Thorin did not release his hold, nor was he willing to relent. "Kili, enough! She has made her choice," the king gave him a push towards the nearest tree, and he checked to see that the others were in tow. "Now [b]climb![/b]" Dismayed, Kili did climb, and he went as high as he could so that he might catch a glimpse of Saeril. The tree swayed dangerously as Bombur hoisted himself up, but for the most part, it felt secure. Brows furrowed in worry, Kili looked to his older brother as he held onto the tree. The wargs had caught up with them, and they were now trapped to the tree. The monsters had ceased their growling, then turned as the white warg, with Azog on its back, approached. Thorin looked to Azog, stricken to see his sworn enemy alive and well. Azog smirked cruelly, he seemed to take delight in seeing Thorin's shock. “Do you smell it? The scent of fear?" The Pale Orc stroked his warg with his hand, and then his steely gaze matched Thorin's as he spoke in black speech. “I remember your father reeked of it, Thorin son of Thrain." Thorin was hit with grief and hatred all at once. The Goblin King had spoken the truth. “It cannot be.” “That one is mine." Azog faced his mini army as he sent them to attack. “Kill the others!" At his command, the Wargs ran forward and tried to climb the trees. They jumped as high as they could, clawing at the tree trunks and breaking apart branches in their jaws. The trees shook violently at the assault, and the company struggled to hold on. "[i]Drink their blood![/i]" Azog's attention was drawn to Saeril, and recognition showed in his eyes. During the days of her corruption, she had sent him to cause destruction upon Moria. "Do you have further orders?" This was a taunt, for Azog knew of her crimes, and he made sure that she was reminded of them.
