Allereun clicked his tongue, tapping an erratic rhythm as the three monsters rushed towards them. The first managed to inflict a nasty-looking series of cuts on Lyrisa, who took it without even a scream of pain, while the other two latched onto Leifr, who was fending them off quite handily until the Ugling struck. Watching in fascination as the humanoid freak invoked some sort of dark magic, the redhead was quick to note down the effects of its spiritual attack.

One skull was glowing, and in response, the righteous swordsman was in pain. There were two skulls left on the staff as well. If the Ugling was smart, it may use the rest of those infernal spells to incapacitate Fiore, severely crippling the fighting capability of the team.

Which meant that Allereun was going to have to make his getaway now, before he drew anymore attention to himself.

Two monsters on Leifr.

One to be split between Fiore and Lyrisa.

And the Ugling who...oh, that was very useful.

Another stranger, brandishing a crossbow of sorts, had attacked that Ugling magic-user. That abomination was now screeching with a knife in its shoulder.

[b]“Seems like lots of strangers are appearing just when they can help out,”[/b] the apothecary murmured to himself, before changing plans.

He won't run away, for now.

Instead, he reared back his arm and threw the torch towards the general direction of those monsters, hoping that it'd serve to draw their attention away from assaulting Leifr, if only for a moment.
