The longsword strikes true, and lands right into his side. The bandit lets out a cry of pain, "Augh! Damn it! That really hurt!" He then growls, "So this pup has some bite to him, eh?!" 

Cadmus can hear another yell from Meli and another cry from a bandit, as her spell strikes true, but the damage was not as devastating as his. The bandit cried irritated, "Gah! You little! Why don't you just stay still?!" 

The bandit Cadmus is facing, speaks as he twirls his Scimitar in an attempt to be intimidating, and he boastfully speaks, "Fear me, for I know the secret technique of the Greatest King's sword fighting skills! Behold!" He moves to charge and attack Cadmus again. But, in a comedy of errors, the pommel of the sword hits him on his face, while he trips over a rock. He face plants into the earth in front of Cadmus, and is resoundly knocked unconscious. 

The other bandits are still dragging Meli away, while the third bandit with his hands freed sighs, "Ugh...Idiot! Looks like I gotta take care of this myself..."

 He lifts his loaded crossbow and takes aim at Cadmus. He fires, and the bolt pierces through what armor Cadmus is wearing! It's clear that this bandit is much more dangerous because he just tried aiming for Cadmus's heart! 

[hider=OOC]The attack lands! But the bandit is still up.
