Reyl had to wait a bit to be able to cast her spell again, as she had recently used Reflecting Light. Though within a few seconds she was able to cast the spell.

Randagulf and those humans around him were healed. The Harbinger's arm wound was closed up and he felt the movement come back to it.

A lesser man would've smirked at Lamush given his advantage now. However, Randagulf was a man of character. He treated his foes with respect.

Once his wound was healed he attacked. Doing a horizontal swing at Lamush's lower chest where he had previously identified a weakness in her armor.

Without her berserker rage clouding her mind, Lamush was able to think more clearly. She jumped back, choosing to avoid the swing rather than to risk damaging her weapon or taking the blow. As she avoided his attack, she chanced a swing at his weapon to try to disarm him.

The Harbinger saw this coming and lunged forward, hitting her in the torso with the end of his axe. The shaft struck her center torso, while the tip of the axeblade dug into her torso and cut her on her ribs. Nothing major, but unlike Randagulf she couldn't heal all these minor wounds.

Hans was being ganged up on now. A third Orc had joined the other two and they had flanked the human.

Hans lifted his shield and blocked an incoming attack, but another slipped through his defense and stabbed him near the stomach. The damaged chainmail that he was wearing did little to stop the Orcish sword.

The third Orc struck Hans' right hand, nearly cutting it off, and made him drop his axe.

Now disarmed and with only his shield, the charred man looked to be in some trouble.

With the Orcs focused on killing him, as they seemed weirdly fixated on this human, they didn't attack Kal. She was able to close the distance on the platforms and reach them.

The humans for the first time seemed to be winning the fight in the mine.

The archers had been nearly wiped out thanks to Kal, Hans and Reeth. Half the warriors were screaming as their flesh melted off their bones. Things weren't looking too good for the Orcs.

Tiskr and Elisiv led the shieldwall as they changed from a purely defensive formation into an offensive one. The humans were the ones attacking now.

Meanwhile, Reeth was using his staff and spells to kill the injured Orcs.

As the reinforcements reached the stronghold gates and the adjacent watchtowers laid burning, the Orcs on the surface began to break.

Bodvar and the other Companions pushed the Chief's defenders back, killing some of the women in the process. The humans barely seemed to care that they were fighting orcish women.

Bakel was forced to order a retreat as the tide of Companions crashed his people. "With me, to the barracks!" He rallied the women.

Durzha was watching the fighting from the longhouse. Her eyes wide as she saw her tribesmen cut down by the ruthless humans. She had seen death before, but never in this scale.

"Papa is strong." She told herself. "Papa will beat them."
