OOC: things to point out. There are more then a few stragglers. Half the elven army retreated to the keep. The ones that retreated are all in there.
"IDIOT!" hissed the female, "Lady Alae will whine to the Mistress if we slaughter them needlessly... and who will the Mistress blame? us, you fool!" and aimmed a backhand at Zennenn, if did of course, miss him. "Besides, it would rid us of a source of slaves. These elves are docile anyway." then she sneered "Collect those who surrendered as slaves, and take their weapons." she looked at Gus, "Enough Genasi!"
Myrdaelth at that point looked up and gasped when they planned to take the elves as slaves, looking incredibly afraid. Her warder, still tired out had been sitting down recovering, with Myrdaelth seated on her lap. Though the priestess had her arms around the girl, it wasn't out of any love or affection. Myri didn't seem to care what the reasons were though, and just snuggled up to the priestess. A blanket around the girl, she shuddered at the thought of elves being slaves, and got a sharp swat and the words "Sit still child. Nothing will happen to you. Lady Alae has a personal interest in you." the priestess sighed, then spoke to the warriors. "It might be better to take the elves as captives, rather then slaves. Lady Alae won't be too pleased if we slaughter them all." the female warrior nodded, "Yes Priestess.".
~~~Meanwhile...~~~
"I do not wish to fight you, my dear Matron. I just want you out." he drew his sword, "Though I will spar with you, if that is your wish. One sword against another... or do you need two to prove your dominance?" he asked, his tone sly and his face sneering.
Edit. Clever me. Close "Center" with "/Font". Hmm.
