Eadvar - The Fallen God [RP]

[Z3r05t4r 855]

As Sayadar rushes ahead, his low swing cuts the skeleton apart, bones breaking as the upper part smashes into the ground. He himself manages to slither through the pairs of dueling guards and skeletons, approaching the fallen jailer first. The keys are quickly found on his belt and the shackles removed.

 

Cren and Alenia make short work out of the skeleton, the spear smacking it off balance and Alenia deeply hacking into the ribcage of the fiend. A rattling shiver and the skeleton falls to the ground, lifeless as supposed to be.

 

Rock being jumped by two at once, manages to smash both hands of stone against the first one, scattering its skull and throwing it into the dirt. The other manages to approach rather fast and drives its rusty blade into Rocks left shoulder, scraping, and yet painful.

 

Osferth on the other hand enters into the prison block where he could clearly hear the inquiring shouts of some prisoners, but also battle noises further up ahead in the corridor, where apparently some guards have engaged skeletons who broke in. Little did he know what was about to happen outside.

 

...

 

The gate in the courtyard shudders all of a sudden, as if something very big was thrown against it. Once. Twice. Thrice. And continuing, the reinforced gate holding, but who knows for how long. A decision must be made, as the gate continues to shudder and the guards in the courtyard continue to dwindle and the skeletons increase in numbers.

As the Skeleton falls, Cren would nod his appreciation to Alenia, before moving towards Sayadar. "Would you mind dealing with my shackles? It's not an easy feat to fight anything while shackled, especially if your only weapon is a spear, and frankly, I'd rather have full capacity to fight, when whatever's on the other side of the gate manages to get through."

*Upon removing his shackles Sayadar grins, moves his sword to his right hand and the holds the keys in his left. He then proceeds to rush over to the others and hands a key to Cren saying*

"Pass that along after you're done! We all need to work together here if we want to survive."

*from this point he runs over to the skeleton attacking Rock and attempts to swing his blade diagonally to hit the creature.*

Alenia nods as though to say "you're welcome" to Cren as she slays the skeleton. She holds out her hands to be unlocked, after Cren. 

 

"We need to find a back door or gate or passage or something! There has to be one, prisons are typically built with some sort of auxillary supply entrance or sewage system!" She gazes in the opposite direction of the main gate, attempting to discern if there's anything resembling a back or side door in proximity to them. 

[MTVSHBG 10]

Cren unlocks his own shackles, then Alenia's, before tossing her the keys, in case they were needed for something later. Gripping his spear, Cren would begin looking for any way up onto the wall from the courtyard they're in. While searching he would talk to Alenia. "I'm going to try and get up on the wall, and try and see what's trying to break that gate down. You look for that exit. Be careful, and don't hesitate to shout if you need help. Good luck."

Rock would let out a low-pitched growl at the skeleton as the rusty sword makes contact with him. In one swift motion, he swung both of his shackled arms at the undead being, assumedly knocking it away. 

If it was successfully knocked away, Rock would look around the courtyard for the jailer that previously had their keys. Spotting the people that were tossing around the keys, he ran over to them, holding out his shackled hands to them. "Unlock these and I'll help with whatever you need." he said to Alenia.

[AndrewTech 3334]

Alenia nods to Cren, sliding the now unlocked shackles off of her arms. "Be careful... I'll s-stay with the big guy!"

She looks over to Rocky. "My name's Alenia," she nods to him, unlocking his own shackles. "I'm going to need your help to search for this place's back door; we need to find it, and soon, or we're all dead!"

 

Soon after letting the shackles drop to the floor, she dashes off at a very quick pace. "Follow me!" she cries back to Rocky, sword in hand. She searches for the before mentioned backdoor, for some sort of exit or escape from the prison. Even a sewer hatch would do, as she searches for something, anything that could help them with her observant eyes.

[justDEWit 133]

"Name's Rock." Rock said as the shackles feel to the ground, before running after Alenia, sliding the unlocked shackles off of his arms. Though he would be slower than Alenia, he'd still search for ways out of the prison other than the front entrance, double-checking areas that she ran past.

[Z3r05t4r 855]

Sayadar hastily cleaves into the back of the skeleton, for it to be shattered apart by Rock's shackled stone hands. Definitely a goner.

 

As you remove your shackles, and relax your wrists, you take the moment to inspect the courtyard in which the comingly on-sided fight is taking place...

 

You are standing a bit aside from the center. On one side, with adequately high walls and walkways is the entrance gate, which trembles continously under something big being slammed against it. The gate appears to hold stifly against, the steel-bar reinforced oak gate being a formidable foe for what battering ram the undead may be using.

 

The walls run all around the courtyard, on the last side only being the prison itself, which has started to burn further back, boulders smashing still into it. On the prison roof you can see a handful of crossbowmen firing at various skeletons all around the prison it seems. You hear a scream and see a guard stabbed by two rusty blades fall off. Some walls are damaged by boulders and you can see empty cells inside.

[MTVSHBG 10]

Cren, seeing no way to get to the walkways or the roof from the courtyard, would dash inside the prison, going up whenever possible in an attempt to make it to either the roof, or the walkways. While running, if he encountered any guards, or prisoners who needed help fighting off a skeleton, he would help as he passed by.

Osferth rushed toward the echoing din of battle as fast as his short legs would carry him. He ignored the pleas of the prisoners that reached out to grasp him as he hurtled past. He rushed towards the small battle, which was more akin to a brawl than a true fight, as the narrow hallways did not provide enough room for more than a couple guards to stand abreast. The rugged dwarf bent, lowering his shoulder as he charged forward.

 

He hoped that his forward momentum and burly figure would be enough to send the skeletons sprawling back, even if for a moment; for a moment was all that he would need. Once he had unbalanced the savage undead, he might have a chance to grasp one of the weapons that lay limp in the cold fingers of the guards who had been slain. He could only hope to find a blunt instrument, a mace or a blackjack perhaps, but any weapon would do. If he was successful, he would sprint back the way he had come, and begin the arduous task of breaking the padlocks on the barred cell doors. 

[justDEWit 133]

Rock quickly glanced around as his shackles were taken off, seeing no immediate danger moving towards him or Alenia. He stood there intimidatingly, folding his arms over his chest as he looks at Alenia, waiting for her to do something.
