Ptekme comes to at the top of the watchtower, loosely pinned against the wall by a javelin. He is able to work the javelin free of the wall and remain hidden, working to break off the bone weapon to regain mobility without bleeding himself out.

The sounds of cracking bone are drowned out by the cry of the magma cleric as Qaba's arrow finds its mark and he staggers back, clutching the arrow embedded in him. Zantos' arrow is less helpful, going wide and cracking against the frame of the door.

The injured dwarf looks through the frame of the watchtower and sees Zantos, coming around to swing at him with a greatclub. But Zantos reacts quickly and ducks, the weapon striking the frame and shaking the tower slightly instead.

Hearing a sudden shout from under him, Qaba looks down to see the fallen human Ptekme bit earlier surge back up in a clumsy uppercut. The elf quickly dodges the punch, and the second one as the human fights wildly like a dying animal. While he's distracted by the man, he feels his skin start to blister from a wave of convection tossed by the Crematory cleric.

Lazaar appears from around the building.


Faldar pulls away from the flailing carru, narrowly avoiding another horn swipe as he places a hand over the spreading grey rot on Bontar's body. His hand's healing light banishes the necrotic force and Bontar awakens with a gasp. From the nearby building, the gladiatrix emerges. "None of that!" she shouts, and hurls two daggers at Faldar. One of them cuts his arm as it flies past, while the other lands in the sand. But she is too late to stop him from bringing Bontar back.

Seeing the mighty dwarf get back up, the dwarven punk rushes at him, swinging wildly with his greatclub. But Bontar is able to roll out of the way and charge the tower. His stone maul sails through the wood with a sickening crack, and there's a moment of silence as everyone seems to pause for a second. The dwarf up top shouts in dismay as the tower starts to lean over towards the broken leg - and straight towards Bontar!

Squeezing himself as small as he can, Bontar slips through most of the supports as the tower falls, taking some scrapes and battering to his arms and shoulders. The dwarf up top is less fortunate, landing prone on the ground in front of the rampaging carru. Moving as quick as a dwarf can, he gets up and scrambles back. Bontar can feel a familiar unease settle over him as a shot from the dwarf's psi orb splinters some wood next to him. The psion turns just in time to see the carru coming at him, and ducks around a swipe of its horn.

Covering Bontar, the lady takes a stab at the dwarf attacking him and lands a solid hit on his arm, then cracks her bone club in half over his head. She keeps hold of the bottom half of the club, the sharp end potentially serving as another, improvised shiv.


Greven slips away under cover of a wall. The ganger behind him growls and starts circling the wall, placing his hand against it to push himself around the corner, only to discover his hand passes right through. "You are really pissing me off." Slowed down slightly by the wall, he pursues Greven around the corner and pulls out a pelota, tossing the spiked ball. It brushes just past Greven, snagging some of his robes and leaving a small tear.


Left behind, Qoheleth lies unconscious next to one of the humans. The man looks back and hisses at his mul ally, "Hey. Help me move th' guy, we gotta get back and warn Korno. Should take a prisoner with'us so we don't seem useless." Taking off his shirt, the man uses it to bind Qoheleth's hands, and the two of them begin to carry him away from the scene.
