Reynault, after getting a few rats off with Pele's help, took up a guard position at the two remaining rats. He would be ready if they attacked again, but Reynault had the suspicion that the rats were finished.

"Thanks for getting the rats off me. I swear I'm better at fighting than this." he told the young druid. He had felt out of sorts since he left prison, but that was weeks ago. He thought he shook the cobwebs off, but it was clear that he wasn't even close to as strong as he used to be.

Reynault felt the wind hiss as Pele's quarterstaff knocked one of the larger rats off his chest and back onto the ground. "Thanks!" he said before bringing his sword down in a killing stroke at the rat swarm.

The blade struck home and many of the rats shrieked in pain. As they bled, the disgusting smell reached his nostrils and it almost made him gag. "Disgusting." was all he managed to say before freeing his blade.

Pele threw more fire at the rats as they tried to climb the two adventurers. Try as they might, the vermin couldn't get through the Reynault's or Pele's armor. Reynault simply shrugged them away and struck again, cutting deep into the mass of rats. As he pulled his blade away, he focused his mind and tried to strike again.

Rather than hitting rats, the blade hit the muddy ground with a resounding *thud*. He raised it again, quickly shaking the mud off the blade."Apparently I need more practice."

Got a 9. That sounds like a miss.

Reynault is going to use his action surge and attack twice.

Reynault brought his sword back to strike another rat swarm when he began to sweat in his armor. Seeing Pele out of the corner of his eye, he watched her pull magic into her. As the air grew hotter and hotter, she opened her eyes and exhaled. Suddenly, the alley was filled with fire.

The rats screamed as they cooked, with one whole swarm disintegrating. Reynault quickly saw his opening and struck again with his sword. This time, he struck well and his blade cut deep into the vermin.

Reynault was out of practice, and it showed at how poorly aimed his blow was. Still, he put his weight behind it and it bit deep. Redrawing it from writing mass of rats, and the blade came back bloody. He prepared to swing again, hoping to get some of the rats attacking Pele to attack him instead.
