While the fighting persists Eremin attempts to rouse Vestri the beaten Dwarf by slapping his grubby, bearded face, but to no avail. Perhaps some water splashed on his face will do better, thinks Eremin, fumbling for his flask...

While the tumult and clamour is occurring, Celglin slips over the dark passage way from whence the Trolls emerged. All is dark, cool, and ominous it that direction. His eyes cannot penetrate the darkness, and nor can his sharp ears discern anything over the incredible racket of the fighting behind him...

Only one Troll remains -- that faced by Lomeluin and the hirelings. With the fall of its fellows it senses the game has turned, and is struggling to make an exit.

What now?

Sili: "Don't let it escape!"

He attempts to block the troll's exit and smash it with his flail.

Norin assists Sili by trying to bring his great war hammer to bear upon a knee of the troll.

As he sets up his swing, he tosses out, "Of course, if we let him go..." and adjusts his position a little for a better angle, "we could follow him back to his lair!"

His ears still ringing from the blow to the head, Sili replies, "You're right, Norin ... (grunt) ... my back *is* covered in hair." .... SMASH!

Elindir will ready his bow and is prepared to either shoot a party shot or sneak off in the troll's direction.

Lmluin presses his retreating foe hard, a fell light burning in the elf lord's eyes. Talk of following it is falling on deaf ears. He seems intent on the Troll's death.

Legandir watches the armoured troll crumple without expression, and smoothly returns Morfil to its sheath. He again hoists his bow from his shoulder and fits and arrow.

The last Troll barges away from the main part of the fighting, directly away from Sili, Norin and their allies -- and directly toward the terrified Dwarf Hepti!

Lomeluin and Einer stand in the way, with Nat and Hallam harrying its scaly flanks.

Initiative is rolled (1d6; Lomeluin=3, Einer=6, Nat=3, Hallam=6, Troll=1) and the company fall upon the fleeing Troll vehemently, weapons chopping and slashing!

(4d20=11,6,14,9) blows rain down, deflecting this way and that, but it is Nat's flail that delivers the mortal blow (2dd=6,6!) crushing the back of its skull with an audible crack, splashing Hepti in the face with a black gout of mushed Troll brain and gore as the great monsters clatters to the ground only inches from the trembling torch bearer's feet.
