[B][U]Esmeralda stands at the West Gate[/U][/B]

High above the warning horn sounds as the lookouts spot the enemy moving across the killing field and along the road.
The Mercs begin rushing up the stairs and ladders around the Gate seeking positions from which to wait the scaling ladders or to fire their bows.
Esmeralda not bound by the constraints of many of those around her rushes up invisible steps to stand atop the very roof of the gates.. Once there she surveys the scene below and spots a siege engine; a battering ram by it's appearance. 

[B]"Xexos Ur! (Let Spears Fly)"[/B] she says as she points her left hand in the direction of the siege engine.
Five glowing daggers of light race across the distance striking an Orc with a whip who seems to be in command of the others as he drives their efforts. 
The siege commander is sorely wounded but doesn't go down which prompts Esmeralda to let fly another volley and the second strike causing the siege commander to fall screaming face first into the dirt of the road.

Those men armed with bow on the wall let fly a storm of death and pain which falls among the orcs. The orc angered by their loss let fly 100s of black shafts of death themselves.

Esmeralda spread her arms wide uttering another incantation that caused a wall of transparent blue light to spread 30 feet either side of her and 12 feet high. The evil flight of arrows that impacted the shielding energy broke and tumbled to the ground.
