"Same here. We have the exact same situation it seems. no need to Apologize." scanning across the trees and the mountain ridges. In a sense he was still in service to Pherae, though technically Laus, for that's where he had to go train.
"So tell me Rayne, exactly what do you think we are doing? We're in a pretty grave situation. From what I've gathered from various inns, someone resurrected the eight legends to work on the side of evil, corny I know, but most have been destroyed by a group of warriors. Currently I know of two dragons about, and I also know somethings going on in Etruria, which is why we are traveling there...
Ah there is a cave up ahead." he pointed a hand up to one not too far away, though it didn't seem like it was big enough for the whole group...

Sireace looked back at the group, acknowledging Rayl's excilmation. She stopped suddenly, she heard a rushingly in the bushes. She gripped her sword and walked hurridedly over to Rayl, "Hey Rayl..." She said, hesitently, "The cave looks good...but....well, i'm not really sure if this is a safe area." She said, mentaly kicking herself, 'Ugh..that sounded really stupid.' She mused to herself, but still, she was hesitent about this place..it seemed, well, watched.

Darius had seen the movement too, and it troubled him. It was strange that they hadn't noticed somebody following them, especially as it was muddy and everyone would be making sloshing sounds with their boots. He made a quick note to look out and have his Elfire ready. He called up the magic just in case, and had it just at the point of being unleashed and held it there. There was something unnerving about this area, and he could see that some of the others felt it too. He wouldn't miss the action this time. He was ready.
OoC: If there is going to be a fight, try to wait till tomorrow real time, I probably won't be on most of the day today, cause my mom's working from home (Ugh).

Kaim had walked with Darius to find the cave, and as they mentioned the movement, it was obvious to Kaim as well.
Kaim reached down onto the ground to pick up a handful of stones. "Your fire mage could probably light up the cave." Kaim said as he kicked over a stick. "A torch maybe handy?" He suggested to Darius to make a torch for them with his fire. "We can't fight something we cannot see."
Staying with the group, he readied to toss stones at the enemy. He whispered to the group quietly, "They know we're ready now...all because of me." He giggled, almost as if waiting for this to happen.
Ah well, it was payback for not being able to go to Bern. Plus, he could see, and be part of a little more action. It was time to prove he wasn't just a mere Priest, but a Prince as well.

Rayne looked at Rayl seriously. All his descriptions of the things they might have to face didn't daunt her. Maybe it was foolish bravery.
"Grave situation? We are knights! The knights in fairy tales could strike evil down no matter how strong it may seem. We'll win, and be able to return to Pherae after, I bet my lance on it."
All of a sudden Sireace came to warn them of her feeling. Then Kaim lgihted a torch. Rayne cursed herself. She was so busy talking to Rayl that she hadn't payed attention to anything else. She made a mental note to be more alert as she gripped her lance.

"But you forget Rayne, there were many sacrifices, hardships, and moments when grief stayed their hands. As much as I hate to say it, not everything happens like in books." readying his lance, deciding it best as they already had quite the few swordsman, his horse readied itself as he made sure he blocked the entrance to the cave (as his horse would not go in. Oh well, best to make sure they still had an entry/exit," Stay together and try not to get surrounded!"

Sireace moved next to Rayne and Rayl. She drew her sword, it's red tipped hilt showed up agesnt the black blade. She looked curiously at Rayne, an almost reproachefull look. "Knights aren't invivable...no warrior is." She said quietly, and a little bit confused. She thoughts Knights knew that. "Rayl..can you see anything?" She whispered.

Aleth ran off somewhere away from the group to barf somewhere. All her drinking had really come back to haunt in the most terrible way she knew. Bending down she began to gag and heave quite a bit of barf. The greenish brown liquid streamed out of her mouth in a steady flow like that of a waterfall. The dark goop spread everywhere over the ground covering the crisp green grass with the unpleasant color of almost digested bacon from not to long ago. Along with the bacon bits there were left over other meat and a bone that seemed to have been unknowingly swallowed. Surprisingly she felt much better after releasing all those needless alcohol.

(As you all for SOME reason want ME to start the fight, alright)
You could see the cave begin to glow quickly, and footsteps echoing. They must have had some sort of hidden fortress inside the mountains...which meant there should be another way out incase they have to go through,"Alright everyone, wait until they are revealed by their own torches, then strike. Try to stay in the shadows as much as possible." With this he rode right on out the cave so they could see him outside, bandits to believe that they were being attacked by a sole knight...oh how they wrong they are, he couldn't help but think, as he readied his lance, as the first few bandits became visible.
(There, happy? Why do I always have to be the one to do it...? -_- )

A bandit came charging out into the open and Darius hit him with a quick blast from his Elfire. The bandits seemed to just keep coming though. There were way too many. He didn't know how they could possibly beat all the bandits, but he didn't panic. There wasn't time to panic, only time for action. Before to many more of them could get out, he focused his magic on some tree limbs above the entrence and sent it flaming down to the ground, leaving a small area for them to get out. Now they would have to come one at a time. He was starting to like the odds here.

( lol..because your so good at it Rayl..^^ by the way Aleth..nice post..it's a thing of beauty.) Bic- Sireace moved over nearer to Darius's side, slashing her sword. Suddenly a bandit attacked her, she swung her sword in an ace (weapon 2-) she aimed her sword for the kill (+13) the bandit lay dead, "How you doing?" Sireace asked the mage, impressed slightly with his magical skill.

"Very good thanks!" In truth Darius hadn't felt this good in months, maybe years. The adrenalin was getting to him. If he wasn't careful he would get hurt. A bandit got slightly to close to him, and nearly got him with his axe. He thought to himself: "This is what I was talking about!" As he scorched the bandit to nothing more than cinders.
(OoC: I was thinking 15 or 20 bandits minamum, (Did I spell that right?) Since they're essentially cannon fodder even for level one people. And they've been sufficiently handicapped by the burning branches that we should be able to take them fairly easily)

Rayne frowned, silenced by Rayl's and Sireqace's disapproval of her little dream. She would have to prove to them that she could be like her hero's. All of a sudden bandits seemed to explode through the opening. They seemed endless. She readied her lance just as a fiery branch blocked the opening. she would have to thank Darius for his quick thinking.
"Alright, who wants to die?" She called out, trying to look somewhat heroic.
Unfortunately a bandit had taken this time to get closer and he swung his axe. Rayne swore as she blocked it, getting in a deadlock. Realising she had lost any advantage her lance's range might've given her, she jumped back and lost her balance. The bandit, sensing weakness pressed his attack, only to run right into her weapon. Raybne thought she was out of the woods but as she tried to kick him off her lance another bandit attacked. Jumping sidewards to avoid the attack, her lance came free and she slammed right into the cave wall.
"Damn it all!' She yelled as she held her lance in an effort to keep her opponent far away.

Sireace noticed Rayne's need, but to her utter frustratioin she couldn't go to her team mates aid. She cursed under her breath as she continued to shove off her opponets. She tried to slide slightly twoard Rayne, but she couldn't go very far without running into more bandits. "Hey!" She called to some of the bandits, a little small voice in her head told her that drawing attnetion to herself was a bad idea, but the adrelaline was getting to her.

Kaim looked at each of his teamates ready to heal someone if they were in desperate need. Remembering the rocks in one hand, he leaned his staff against himself and picked one rock from the pile. A bandit that Sireace taunted, he'd strike.
Getting annoyed, the bandit thought it'd be wise to kill the Cleric. Tossing all the rocks at the bandit, the Cleric began to run backwards watching the bandit get close. "I'm getting attacked." He'd say letting the others realize.
The axe came down to cleave Kaim in two, but Kaim stepped back and swung his staff horizontally only to be dodged. The bandit attacked again to cleave Kaim once more but this time horizontally. Turning his staff vertically, he stopped the Axe from touching his hips, onlyhis robe got cut. Taking this final oppurtunity, Kaim jumped forward tackling the bandit who seemed weak onto the ground. "Help." He called once more, as he sat ontop of the bandit.
Closing both fists into one, he smashed the bandit in the face. (-2) As Kaim was ready to start continuous punching, the bandit caught both of his fists, and pulled Kaim down to headbut him. (-2) The bandit then tossed Kaim to the side, as the bandit got up to kick Kaim. Catching his foot Kaim pulled it, making him fall back down. (-1)
Getting up as quickly as possible, Kaim sprinted to his Staff of Mending seeing the Axe beside it. Stepping on the Axe, he awaited the Bandit's return, hoping that someone would kill him before he reached Kaim.
Kaim = Lost 2 health.
Bandit = Lost 3 Health.
