Burzdol and Ani Dao raced towards the hill where the dwarves were fending of the raiding party of orcs. Hasty to join the fight and help his friends, Burzdol meant to break through the cover of the woods and into the mob. Knowing better, Ani Dao pulled him around by the shoulders and dragged him behind a nearby bush.
“Oh no, we’re not challenging anymore mobs. Besides, our group has the advantage. A handful of highly trained warriors that have the descending position out-weighs about two to three dozen orcs that are trying to ascend the hill.” Burzdol nodded in agreement. “Look over there.” Ani Dao pointed behind the ancient fort to where about ten or so orcs were sneaking around back trying to creep up on the dwarves from behind. Biting her lip in excitement, she pushed him down on the ground in front of her and laid beside him. Then the she-elf started crawling slowly towards the group, Burzdol followed. When they were only a dozen yards away, Ani Dao stood up and ran break neck speed to the other side of the group. Making it over she spun wildly and let out a war yell. After propelling three of her knives at the orcs, she drew her sword and taunted the party. Furious, all of them charged at her. Understanding at once her plan, Burzdol stood up quickly and readied his bow. In a matter of seconds he had taken out a good majority of the orcs. Ani Dao fought madly thrashing and slicing through the crowd. When they were all dead, Burzdol ran to meet her.
“Whoo! That was fun,” said the she-elf wiping off her sword on her tunic.
“Next time … tell me the … whole plan before … you just … go … okay?” said Burzdol between breaths, looking at the large number of orcs they had just overtaken. Ani Dao laughed and patted him on the back.
“Alright. I was just so excited--” Burzdol stopped her midsentence, taking her arm to pull her up the stair way. Shaking his head, he led them up to aid the company.
