The tides had turned for the moment as the hunters were now fully engaged. Each pack member had their own opponent now, but there was still a crossfire between them.

Fendros reeled before he was able to take another shot at the Altmer. He opened his eyes to see Meesei's ward covering him. Her face was so unfazed it was unsettling, despite holding a ward against a sustained lightning spell. Getting his wits back, he noticed the crossbowman leveling a shot at Meesei. All Fendros could do in time was to reach over his left shoulder with his right hand and wrench his shield to cover himself while he stood between Meesei and the archer. The bolt pierced through Fendros' shield and stopped an inch away from his face, much to his own shock, but it was enough. he let go of the shield, letting the side of the bolt rest on his shoulder rather than the shield falling back onto his back, and drew and arrow to shoot the man before he could reload. The marksmanship potion was apparently still in effect, as this time the arrow hit the man directly in the chest, piercing through his hardened leather cuirass and causing him to stumble to the floor.

Elsewhere, Sabine didn't waste any time with the opportunity Lorag presented. She swiped at the Nord again, this time her claws being deflected by the haft of his weapon. The Nord tried to follow through by thrusting the top of his axe at Sabine to try and knock her off balance, but Sabine braced and caught the head of the weapon in her hands, her knees bending to absorb the Nord's momentum. Once the Nord ground to halt, Sabine threw the axe to one side, causing the Nord to readjust to try and stay balanced and opening him up to a bite to the neck from Sabine. The Nord wasn't going to die so easily, it seemed. He managed to hold his axe haft between Sabine and his neck, gritting his teeth while straining to keep the beast at bay. They both stood locked in a contest of strength, pushing against each other. 

Janius tried to keep his eyes up with everything. Ahnasha was pinning down the Bosmer who was assailing him, but a shimmer appeared nearby Ahnasha that formed into an Orc that nearly took his packmate's head off had she not dodged. Janius ran and reached out in time to catch the sword hand of the orc woman mid swing in the hook of his axe. Furious, the orc spun and pulled her blade free, quickly flowing into a a flurry of blows that pushed Janius back as he shifted his shield to block them. The orc was so ferocious that Janius had a hard time finding an opening. To give himself space, he lunged forward shield first and tried to bash the woman back. The orc didn't expect the move, but recovered quickly, forcing Janius to pull back again so he wouldn't be vulnerable. Placing his shield and axe into a stance that intentionally left one side open, Janius tempted the orc to swing in that particular direction. She took the bait, allowing Janius to parry the blow with his shield, raising it up and displacing the woman's sword arm to a spot where she could not immediately defend Janius' push cut to her throat. She clutched at her neck with her free hand, trying somehow to stem the bleeding, but she still stood. For good measure, Janius brought his axe back and swung down on her shoulder. Without the strength to defend herself, the orc was slain.

Back with Sabine's fight, the Nord was powerful, but Sabine proved that even though she was a small lycan, she was still a lycan. Sweeping her claws upwards at the Nord, she raked her claws across his armoured torso to little effect, but slammed him with enough force to knock his feet out of place and cause the contest to break in her favour. The Nord tried to regain his footing, but was pushed back by Sabine until he fell to the ground and was silenced. Not stopping to feed, Sabine spotted the Bosmer crouching behind a table and jumped for her. A panicked arrow flew wide before Sabine ravaged the hunter, letting blood fly with the scene obscured by the turned table that had served as her cover.

With the desperate scene around them, the Imperial fighting Lorag turned tail and bolted for the next chamber, limping as he went. There was a moment where he was within sight of Ahnasha and Fendros, prompting Fendros to take a shot and miss. Ahnasha still had a shot, but it would mean more information getting to the enemy if he was to escape.

The mage, in full concentration against Meesei, held her ground knowing that her ward would not hold if she were to move.
