Inside the Fort[/i][/row][cell]

Trace's attack was far from the final blow but he had no problem holding the enemy in place for a better suited ally.  He'd been doing the same for the archer girl, now he'd achieved the same effect with Artemisia by accident.  But, with the southern part of the fort cleared out, there was no reason to hesitate or gloat.  He simply took a brief moment to confirm that the rest of the southern foes were truly dead before turning to assess the northern part of the fort.  He started moving even as he revised his knowledge of the situation, heading toward the north.

The boss remained, along with one supporting pugilist, and there was one other unsecured space that needed to be dealt with.  From their initial information, the remaining enemy in that room should be a pugilist as well.  A close combat specialist in a small room would be a challenge for a lance fighter like Trace so he decided to keep his focus on the main room and assist in controlling the bandit leader.

By the time he reached the northern engagement, his decision was made.  Trace's lance pierced the pugilist through the neck from a blind angle before the man even realized that forces from the south were moving in on him.  Then, the next step was to prepare to assist in controlling the bandit leader that was focusing on Trace's coin purse... the prince, that is.  So Trace moved to make his second Heartstopper Lunge of this battle.  Hopefully, he would distract the bandit boss enough for his allies to attend to the other remaining objectives.
