The blonde-haired fighter hated jobs like these, though she knew full well they were the usual affair. They didn’t often make the best stories of heroic deeds, but they were the reality of Faerun. Very few people had stories like Rannek of Nesmé, whom she had learned of through Jandek’s dwarven companion who had a penchant for stories. It had been years since the old dwarf had staggered south and she did miss hearing what he had to say. The thought buried, she was quick to remind herself though she was now alone she wasn’t completely so. The others who had been charged with the very same quest were a motley sort, though she never felt they were of the unseemly sort. When the berserker fell to the ground she was caught off-guard just as the others were. She did not know him well, but to die from a goblin of all things was shocking. But even the tallest and strongest could be felled by the smallest blade. As the Eladrin brought forth his strange sorcery on the last goblin the area around them became still. Was that the last of them? She wasn’t completely sure, even with the initial skirmish being over. She would be a fool to lower her guard in such a moment. She considered rushing over to Ironheart, but she was no cleric or paladin; had she done so the only thing she could offer was a shovel for the grave she would have to dig. [color=#daa520]“Keep your guard up. There could be more of them.”[/color] She spoke, albeit briefly. As the blonde kept her ears and eyes open, nothing strange seemed to stick out to her. Sure, there was the path, but nothing suspicious that she could make out. The only thing she could hear was Ironheart as he choked on his own blood. Her eyes moved toward his direction. She frowned.
