ROUND 4

Arbogast can sense the anger that exudes from the spectral warrior, as if it were smoke from a fire. There was a frustration, as well, of knowing that no matter the outcome, no peace will come from this endeavour. Only the constant knowing of damnation and loneliness.

The wight says nothing in reply to Arbogast, only wildly slashes its sword once more.

The wight's sword arcs high, so high that it is a wonder that it does not strike one of the crossbeams that hold high the ceiling, and then falls like lightning.  Arbogast's shield rises quickly to deflect the blow, but he realises the ruse too late.  While the shield hides the sword, the cadaverous warrior strikes, not for the head or body, as Arbogast has become accustomed, but lower. 

The Fire-watcher has just enough time to shift so that the blade bites into his calf rather than severing his leg at the knee, and then he is falling...


:ooc: Arbogast is wounded, but not yet Weary thanks to his fragrant herbs.  I can't mark up the relevant posts, unfortunately, 'cause the 'Quick Edit' button is back to not working for me.

He gasps as he hits the packed dirt floor of the hall, the pain from the wound in his leg not yet fully upon him.  As the wight-king approaches once more, sword raised for a killing blow, he raises his shield and meets it eye to glowing eye. 

"What will your reward be," he asks, "when you are forgotten and the Shadow has called you back to its bosom?"  He shifts, desperately trying to bring his shield to bear.  "I know that those who love me will sing of me, and lament my death, but who shall shed a tear for a dark memory that wears the form of a man it never was?"

Doug, if you're amenable, I'll also tap Arbogast's Shadow Lore speciality, along with the aforementioned Great Success, for an AP (provisionally :csu: )
