I know it probably rubs Dieter the wrong way that Desmond's kill count (3) is higher than Dieter's (2), but... no need to ignore the little guy!

Desmond/Mondes turns his attention to those on the ground below and lets fly his missiles :: Shooting while stationary allows two throws: 2d20=17,13 for two hits! 2d6=5,2 for total 7 damage.

'tis brilliantly done...
(I left that last line in on purpose; how often does Desmond do something brilliantly, eh?)

Dieter uses the enchantment of his ring a second time this day and leaps mightily from the top of the wall, into the courtyards below to confront another pair of (apparently unarmed) black-robes, who scatter before him :: 4d6=3,3,5,4 :: he cuts one of them down immediately, but the other flees toward the ruinous chapel, screaming.
Desmond/Mondes has his eye in, however, and quickly looses a volley of missiles :: 2d6=4,5 ::, and drops the black-robe before it gets too far.
The guilt should be shared by both if we've acted too hastily...

Do you all remember Sister Meena? She was the nun Ulric charmed and who let us in the front gate the first time. She told us this:
"We once counted ourselves Sisters of Mercy... but that was long ago; before Saint Carrie saved us."
The black robes are likely the original Sisters of the abbey who have turned toward darker gods.

You're quite right; I apologize. I missed that while skimming back to check.
So it's the two of us (three?) going to hell if we're wrong.

Humans use the ironic term "friendly fire," but the Elves have a more poetic term. It roughly translates "in the calm before the storm, the honorable sentinel is struck down by lightning and spared the horrors of war to come."
