Sanael Ganahr

Having circled around the orc camp Sanael comes up behind the sentry stationed above the cave entry, who is peering down into the canyon following the chase - at the other side its companion is doing the same.

Sanael Carefully takes aim at the farthest orc - he would only get one oppotunity to kill it. He releases the arrow, sending it flying straight past the orc standing only a few feet in front of him, and as he draws the bow for the next shot he registers his first target falling backwards.

The other orc twists around in shock as the arrow speeds past it - only to see an elf with another arrow nocked. Sanael let fly at point black range - the arrow cutting right through the orcs chainshirt and burrying itself to the fletching. As soon as the second is fired Sanael springs up and closes the distance between himself and the stricken orc - grabbing it with one hand to keep it from falling into the canyon, while slitting its throat with the dagger in the other hand.

Sanael throws the still twitching orc aside and carefully peers over the side to see if the orcs at the cavemouth below had noticed anything, but they are still trying to see what is happening further down the canyon.

With a smile on his lips Sanael again carefully takes aim - straight down. The first arrow strikes the head of one of orcs piercing the skull and killing it instantly - and then the other orcs makes its last mistake. Instead of moving as its partner drops dead it looks upwards - only to catch the next arrow in its open mouth. That arrow is quickly followed by two more - finishing it off.

Having disposed of the four guards Sanael pauses to hear if the alarm have been raised. Detecting nothing, he then shoulders his bow and starts climbling down the cliffside using the hand- and footholds the orcs themselves had carved.
