A trog comes down the stairs, on fire in screaming in pain. It stopped screaming as Buddy casually stomped on it's head and broke it's head open, kicking it off the staircase as he leads the group up. It seemed like Yorik took some heavy casualties storming the gate as you could see a few kobold bodies on the ground, but you could also see a lot of trog corpses on the ramparts as well. What was even more frightening than that however was that somehow or another, those giant crocodiles that you followed was now breathing some sort of acidic breath at the troglodytes on the walls, destroying siege weapons and burning them to death. A second contingent of kobolds were also here, these being led by Kor as they flung oil and shot arrows of fire at troglodytes, likely causing the burning trog that Buddy dealt with. 

Below you was the gate, however it seemed like you only managed to open one gate. Fortunately Yorik and his Kobolds were armed with axes and were able to hack through the first gate, and without a second gate to have to break through the giant acid breathing crocodile was able to force it's way through, clearing a path for the kobolds to storm the keep. The troglodytes easily lost morale once the gate was down and they began to retreat towards the keep itself, a rather large stone structure with arrow holes but hardly any actual marksmen to use them. Seeing how the troglodytes handled the crossbow they used back in the wall below, you could safely guess that even if they had ranged weapons, they would use them poorly. Still the keep had many troglodytes doing a last stand, but now there were also kobolds here to hold ground as well.

Yorik lead a team to clear out the ramparts of troglodytes and take what weapons they can while Kor and his team secured the courtyard area. Pylia kept her eyes on the keep itself though. "Do you think we should take the lead and storm the keep, or wait for reinforcements? It seems like Shor is bringing more kobolds with them as well as another giant crocodile. I say we should wait for now, but if we wait too long that may give the trogs more time to set up their defenses, or worse let Red Stain escape."
