Arthur took up a defensive stance as five more men in yellow began to surround him. He took stock of his options, and upon realizing they were unarmed, immediately felt better about his odds. Not by much though. He was ready to make his move when, to his own chagrin, he felt the familiar pain of an arrow slamming into his left shoulder blade. Turning to find the source of the arrow he was stunned to find the man in yellow, whom he'd just healed, had shot him with his own bow, and had removed the arrow from his own knee to use as a second strike. Was this where he would fall? Was he truly so inapt, that he would die here to a man whose primary weapon, was sand? Thankfully, and much to his surprise, a massive blur of fur came crashing down upon him, drawing the attention of his would-be attackers. Arthur watched in astonishment as a massive wolf scooped up his bow and barreled through his aggressors, heading straight at him. 

Arthur was ready to fend off the beast when, shockingly it knelt down beside him as if urging him to mount it. Sparing a glance at his attackers, he turned his attention back to the wolf beside him. Placing a hand gently on it he smiled saying "Noble creature, I thank thee for thine assistance, but I cannot in good conscience flee this battle knowing there are innocents in danger. I beseech thee, assist me in stopping these men They are of vile intent and must be stopped." Looking into its eye's Arthur could sense not only a noble heart, but also an intelligence that rivaled his own. Stepping away from his new companion Arthur swirled his sword behind his back, severing the arrow shaft a few inches from his shoulder blade, before pointing it at the crowd of yellow clad men who had finally collected themselves off the ground. His left arm would be practically useless until he could remove the arrow from his back, but he was a warrior. He could handle these untrained ruffians with only one arm. Not only that, but he had the assistance of a truly impressive beast, nay companion. That's when he noticed. There were only five of them now. Where had the sixth one gone? NO time to worry about that. 

"I've got the two on the right. I leave the others to you."

Without warning Arthur broke his stance, erupting into a dash straight at his targets. As he approached, he noticed the men reaching into their pockets. Having already seen this trick, Arthur was prepared. Just as they flung their hands out, he turned his head and closed his eyes, the feeling of sand blasting against his sweaty shoulder and sticking before a solid collision. Eyes open to the stunned face of one of the men as he watched his double go flying to the pavement. The one left standing tried to throw a punch, but Arthur was faster, Side stepping out of the way he brought his blade up into the man's elbow. Keeping the blades momentum going, he spun and dropped low slashing horizontally towards the second man as he began to climb back up, only to catch a blade across his face. 

Finishing his twirl he thrusted his blade directly into the first man's ribs, right where his heart should be, only to watch the man dissipate before his very eyes. Arthur didn't have time to dwell on the man's demise however, instead turning his attention to the remaining man who was now on the ground holding his face in both hands, screaming about how he was blind. He wouldn't be screaming for long however as Arthur's blade plunged into his chest, causing him to dissipate as well. Standing back up, he turned to spot his savior, who had easily dispatched the other three. All of which had dissipated into nothing as well. A quick scan of the surroundings revealed a number of civilians staring in astonishment, looking at him through tiny metal rectangles? But no sign of the sixth man. He must have slipped away in the scuffle. Turning to face his savior wolf Arthur offered a faint smile as his vision began to blur. Arthur, sheathing his sword, began to approach his new companion only for his legs to give out beneath him, dropping to one knee instead. 

'Lord above, if this is my end, please protect my people'
