Somewhat later in the first age (LotR roleplay part 2)

[Bozos of Bones]

Therlion threw himself to the side and turned towards the man. He held out his open hand, and quickly closed it and pulled it towards himself, trying to disarm the enemy. The man just took a step with the blade, but held it tight. "Fine!" Therlion screamed, as he pulled out his shortsword with his right arm and one of his daggers with the other. He threw he dagger at the man, but he dodged it easily and hurled himself upon Therlion. The elf pulled his left hand as if he pulled on a rope and the man grimaced with a surprised expression. He tumbled, with the dagger sticking from his back. He crawled on the ground, still intent to kill Therlion, and got up on his knees. Therlion slashed open his throat with his shortsword. He took out the dagger from the corpse's back and started running towards the camp, but felt a pain in his leg. Then, he realised he wasn't as successfull at dodging the man's sword as he thought, as there was a long cut in his left thy. "Rrgh, stupid!" he cursed both himself and the bald man as he tore out some of his half-robes to tie a knot to stop the bleeding. He continued towards the camp.

[Keal]

Keal turns around, quickly kicks two of the men in the face, and knocking them out of the tent. The man after Kalam turns around and tries to attack Keal. Keal turns around while the man slashes at him, wich frees his hands. He quickly pulls out Therloin's dagger from the side of his pants, and gets in a fighting stance. Keal slashes at the man's neck, and finds he is succesful, but the cut is not very deep, so he can survive."I'll leave you to decide what is to become of this man." Keal says as he hands the dagger to Kalam. Keal quickly readies himself for battle in bronze plated shoulder pads(like football shoulder pads), bronze plated boots, and a sword with Fingolfin's mark labled on it.

For Keal and Therlion:

While Kalam killed his attacker Keal knocked two of his attackers to the ground and wounded another. The two who were on the ground slowly got up and readied themselves for another attack. The one whose neck had been slightly cut seemed to be undecided what to do, but still had his sword in his hand. Suddenly he swung his sword at Kalam who not expecting the man he had just spared to attack him was gravely wounded in his back. The two others turned towards Keal in a defensive posture.

Therlion has now nearly arrived at the encampment. You can see several small groups of men fighting each other but you cannot know who is on who's side.

[The Fallen One]

Terias decides to try a few more doors before deciding that it was futile to have come this way and return the way they came. The next door he thinks they should try, is the first one in the right.

For Terias:

As you carefully open the door it suddenly is swung open with incredibly force and you are pushed back. An old man with nearly no clothes, white hair reaching his waist runs out. He looks around confused, wincing from the low light which reaches him. It is clear he had been in the cell for a long time. Suddenly he spots Terias and starts running at him.

"You shall not get me without a fight. I shall kill you, you foul orc."

[The Fallen One]

Terias quickly moves back, and uses a basic lightning spell to immobilize the person and question him after he has calmed down.

Turin

Turin should not have been surprised that the stuff had already been gathered and held, and he supposed that Robyn had received a rude awakening as well. He hoped she was alright.

He walked over to put on his gear and strap on his sword sheath. When he got everything put on, he gave Roland a quick glance that told his intentions in his eyes...then walked over to Easthome and kneeled down in front of him.

"Lord, with your blessing, my companion and I shall rid this land of those that would do harm to this people. They shall fall by my sword even this day."

He looked up to the Lord, waiting for an answer.

OOC>>>It is my intention to strike down Easthome on my next post, but I need Roland to deal with those guards back there, incase any of them have ranged weapons.

[dplax]

For Turin and Roland:

Lord Easthome looked at Turin and then with a wave of his hand dismissed him, and he himself turned his back towards Turin and started walking back towards the town.

The five guards are armed as follows. The two personal guards of Lord Easthome both have longswords and large shields. The three who brought your equipment have two of them swords and one of them a spear. Lord Easthome can now easily be striked down, but will Turin do it in the back?

[dplax]

For Terias:

The shock caused the fragile body of the old man to fly back a few feet and he falled unconscious. Oronuin ran over to him and picked him up in his arms.

"Stop, don't hurt him any further. This is my father. He was taken away from our village while I was still a child. Clearly the years he spent here have made him nearly insane. We have to get him out of here."

OOC: you can try other doors or leave the way you came, or try the strong metal door on the other side of the corridor

[Bozos of Bones]

Therlion stopped a few feet away from the battle, and one man lunged himself at him screaming "Die!", but was easily dispatched with a dagger in the chest. Glancing over the chaos, Therlion screamed "For Kalam!!", and jumped into the fray. He noticed a man on his left repeating the cry, and Therlion quickly started fighting with the man against whoever he was fighting. It didn't take long for the two of them to kill the man, with Therlion severing his arm off, and his new ally ran him through. The two found another pair of fighters, and the one attacked by Therlion's comrade was attacked by Therlion as well. It didn't take long for Therlion to realise on wich actual 'side' he was fighting.
