Haydn and Faruom both gasped as the seemingly dead orc raised its bloodless hand, still clinging to it's weapon and watched in horror as the orc used it last ounce of strength to thrust the sword right into the Dwarf's side, as Nori slumped to the ground Haydn ran to his aid pulling herbs out of a rather weather worn leather pouch, as Faruom ran over to the orc kicking it hard to make sure it was dead.

Haydn knelt by Nori's side and inspected the wound "Is he alive?" Faruom inquired with look of concern on his face, "yes he will live, the sword went right through but it doesn't seem to have cut through any viatal organs, But I will need to take this out" he said pointing to the sword that was protruding from the dwarf's right side. Faruom nodded knowing what Haydn wanted him to do, he grabbed the still unconscious dwarf's shoulders and held them down, then he nodded that he was ready. Haydn sat on the dwarfs legs and when Faruom nodded he quickly pulled the sword from the dwarf's side.

The pain woke Nori, He screamed out as the sword slid out. Nori's vision was blurry, he could feel a sharp pain in his side and someone holding him down, in his confusion he started to thrash about trying to shake off who ever was holding him down. "It's us! it's us! we're trying to help you!" Haydn screamed at him. He stopped thrashing and as his eyes refocused he could see both Haydn and Faruom leaning over him, The Ranger put some herbs into his mouth and chewed them for a bit then spat them out on to his hand, Nori wrinkled his nose in disgust. "They will help" Haydn said catching Nori's look, he gave the same mixture of herbs to Faruom indicating that he should do the same for the exit wound and together they applyed the herbs to his wounds.Nori winced, but Haydn grabbed his hand saying "hold that there for a minute." Then he tore a large strip of material from his cloak and wrapped it several times around the dwarf's middle tying it tight, alittle too tight Nori thought.

"can you stand" Faruom asked as the pair went to help him up. He defiantly pushed them away and gritting his teeth he stood, he was suprised the pain hadn't been as bad as he thought it would be, he looked down at the now bandaged wound. As he did Haydn said "the Herbs should numb the wound and stop the bleeding" as Nori looked up the pair were wiping his blood from their hands. He thanked Haydn and turned to thank Faruom but he was standing over the dead orc, he looked in deep thought.

Suddenly he turned round saying "did Either of you hear it shout for someone or something else to Attack?" Nori shook his head, he couldn't remember much and what he could was still hazey, But Haydn nodded saying "yes, I did. do you think there is more of them" Faruom nodded "then we had better get back quick!" Nori cried. "Are you sure you can" Haydn said glancing at the dwarf, "Sure I can" he said frowning at the Ranger, but he bit back a grimance as he lifted his axe. The three then made their way back to the Stalactite room were they had left the others.
