The swordmaster almost got Marzius, and it was only Calis's swift intervention that saved him from an untimely death on her blade. Even then, it left Marzius off balance and reeling. So much so that Dirk's arrow sank into his shoulder, and Wein's delved into his side. The pain made Marzius cry out, and he yanked both arrows out. Oddly enough, no blood flowed from the wounds.
"Someone take care of the d**m archers!" he yelled, waving his arm at said combatants. He then snarled and attempted to fire off another round of his powerful light magics as the dragon.

"I have HAD IT with those damn flies!" Lumino roared, sending a blast of fire to consume the barricade that the archers were cowering behind.
"It's your choice fools! The frying pan or the fire? Ahahahahahahaha!"
The sick laugh ripped through the air like a blade.

Sireace winced as another small magic explosion upset the waters and rocked the small vessel slightly. "Is our boat big enough for all of us even? Let alone the..rest?" She asked, looking at Rayl horse mostly. She hoped that they would be able to help some of the other people, but the chances of them making it out alive were slim, let alone others of the group who were scattered about. "Arguing about it won't help! Rayl, please, if the others are going to get into the boat they can't do so it the way is blocked by a horse..." She said, her blue eyes meeting his.

Hearing Lumino's laugh, Wein winced. He was screwed if he didn't do something. The fire had caused him to have to back off from the barricade. He spotted 3 people piling onto a boat, and remembered the cavalier shouting for them to get on. Taking the chance, he made a break for the boat.

Sadly they were right: Rayl didn't think about how they were going to fit people onto the boat, and began to count the number of heads on who he hoped was on their side," Well, let's see...there are three of us...I'm quite sure those swordsman there are on our side...that archer is as well I believe...I guess we could have Aeros carry some people..." he couldn't help but turn away from the others while trying to think up of a way to get these people to safety, but they were right anyways: there would be casualties," Richter, how many people (not counting horses) do you think we can fit on this boat?"

Sireace looked at him almost pleadingly, and then suddenly yanked on his horses reins, pulling his horse closer to the boat. "Not enough..." She said softly, "I don't think Aeros will allow people to be put on his back..and even if he did he could only carry about five." She said. She tried to push down a sense of panic. Something like his had happened to her before..only it was with her mother. Once, when she was a little girl, her house had caught fire and along with it almost half the town. Her mother had insisted on staying in the town and trying to save their neighbors. She had not lived to see her daughter again. (hmm. =_= cheesy..sorry.. )

Richter looked around the boat, and at the water level. "Plus us and the horse," he said, "this boat can probably hold about 3 more people, but even then we'll be pushing it." He looked at the battle raging on across the way. "One more minute, and then I start the boat moving."

Kabold reered as Lumino's blast struck the ground next to him. "Gah!' Dirk's arm seered in pain. He had never been near so much magic, his body wasn't used to it. He saw the rescue boat and looked from group to group. "Matis, I'm sorry, I won't be of much more help, if I were to stay I might lose my arm for good, I regret it, but I must retreat. Take my last vulnerary!" Dirk threw his last vulnerary into the fray and quickly brought Kabold over to the boat. "I wish to leave, my arm is badly burnt. Is there enough room?"

Wein made his way up to the boat relatively unharmed. A few cuts and burns here and there, but mostly unharmed. Maybe he'd actually live this one out. "Hey, this boat leaving? I'm coming too if you'll let me on."

"Hmmm...With my horse and myself, I doubt there will be enough room, therefore..." with this, Rayl rode off the boat, lance at the ready, "I'll try and take your place on the battlefield. if I myself must retreat, I'll take the overland route." after this, he quickly thought to himself, that is if I'm not burnt to a crisp. With a nod of his head to his companions, he rode off and around the buildings, seeming to be riding around the battle, though this was to find a better position to charge in...sure it's never a great idea to help out complete strangers, but these were most likely the heroes fighting that Hargus fellow, so...it was worth it.

"Thank you, do not lose your life for our sake, I will quickly bring you up to speed, The man with orange hair is our leader Matis, there's also Alexia and Katara. The other guys are all dead. A man named Hargus used evil magic to turn them into zombie slaves, you might not believe me but it's true. So far, all of our attacks seem to cause a little pain, but no overall damage to their bodies. Again, if it gets messy, flee, do not die because of us."

Richter watched Rayl as he galloped away. "You better not die..." he thought, but didn't say it out loud. He turned and began untying a rope. "Sireace, help me with these. Let's get the boat moving." As the two archers piled on the boat, Richter released the sail. Was this it? He watched as the battle raged on.

Katara thought she saw a bit of doubt in Calis's eyes. "So, the monster does think? Well, you stand in the way of justice, so you must be removed!" she yelled. She moved forward a few meters, then sidestepped and struck at Calis's flank. She remembered the day she trained with Matis, and how she used the moves she had learned from him to defeat opponents many times. She hoped she could keep her attacks up. If she dealt with Calis and was well enough to continue, she would try and make a move on one of the two magic users; they were causing the widest damage.

Calis wasn't expecting the tactic. He tried blocking to the left, only to be struck by the blade from the right. He let out an almost ghostly shriek, and backed off from the swordmaster.
"You!!" he shouted, moving his hand to cover the wound. Just like with Marzius, no blood came from the gash.
Calis let go of the wound, which now showed pure flesh, and spun Reginleif once more. He was now going for the kill. He thrust his lance yet again, aiming for the head this time.

Katara hardly lifted her sword in time to block Calis's blow. She sheer force the man put into it sent her skidding on the ground. "Ahhh..." she gasped, still recoiled from the shock of metal on metal. This man was strong. She just realized something about these fiends... They felt no pain, and did not bleed. It dawned on her. "Aim for their heads! Take their heads off! Smash them, pierce them, blow them up! Its the only way to kill them!" she yelled to her allies. She lifted her sword and faced Calis. She felt the raw power of life flowing through her. Faster than divine lightning, she circled the warrior, preparing for her strike by taking different positions. Then she jumped. Once, twice, thrice, she slashed her sword towards Calis' handsome face.
OoC: do they all have hoplone gaurds, or is this crit legit?
