Seeing his knife has no effect Jonathan stays flanked with the Armored man hoping to draw an opening for his allies to attack.

"MEIN GOTT!" Bennedict shouts, stumbling to back away from the menacing figure.

He looks around frantically for something blunt to arm himself with in case the armored man comes his direction.

Alain's actions seem to go unnoticed by the armoured invader.

Norzak is choking on his stew, failing and coughing as he desperately tries to clear his airway.

Benn snatches a log from the small pile near the hearth.

The mail-clad figure swings his sword in an wide sweeping arc, narrowly clearing the hanging end of a ruined roof-beam, and shears clean through the Benn's makeshift club.

The attacker steps forward, carrying the momentum of his attack, and slams bodily into Benn, knocking the Lamordian backward- right into the fireplace. The scholar slams into the cauldron, overturning it.
Hot coals scorch Benn's backside. The stink of burning stew fills the air of the room even as the light of the hearth fire sputters and dies....

"Kurva!"

When the fire goes out, he begins chanting in harsh Luktar, invoking the Morninglord to surround him in vengeful light.

Once bathed in the light, he reaches into his pouch, and produces a small, rectangular metal mirror. "We are friends of the queen! We have a gift for her!"

The light reveals Norzak and his skulking shadow-friend as they attempt to flank the enemy. The dwarf is surprised by the suddens brightness and fumbles his attack. His shadow jerks backward, hiding behind it's flesh-and-blood ally.

The intruder turns to face Dorgio. The visor of its helmet is down, so the priest cannot see its face.

''A GIFT? The mirror...please, please....NO! I MUST KILL FOR MY QUEEN! I MUST OBEY!''

Jon stabs the invader again, but the knife seems to be doing minimal damage. The attack does serve to draw away the warrior's attention from Dorgio and the mirror for a moment.

Benn leaps out of the fire and hurriedly speaks an incantation.

Alain hangs back, standing in the doorway joining two front and bback rooms. Wat stands near him, holding his right arm.

The swordsman raises his hand-and-a-half sword and attacks Jon twice, but the boy is able to just barely avoid being struck.

Norzak casts a spell.
A sickly green ray leaps from the dwarf's hand to strike the armored warrior. The ray of exhuastion has no effect whatever upon the Rider.

"Ay Dorgio, kin ye make a weapon magic? Then we kin 'urt that bastard der sure!"

Alain raises his left hand and whispers a spell, pointing in the general direction of the undead monster. His spell, a bright ray, misses its mark, and harmlessly spends itself against the wall of the cabin.

Across the room, from his vantage point beside the now-darkened hearth, Benn carefully observes the attacker. He has has begun to develop a better understanding of just what it is the party now faces...

Dorgio continues to hold the mirror in front of the creature's visor. His hand trembles only a little. "Would it not be against your queen's order to slay those who are bringing her gifts? Here, be looking! It is a beautiful mirror. Who would not be wanting it?"

And then, another prayer in Luktar as Dorgio invokes the Morninglord to bless Norzak's blade.

The mirror seems to draw the creature's attention once more-

Mirror? She gave me a...NO! YOU ARE TRYING TO TRICK ME! I MUST KILL ALL OF YOU!

Jon darts in and stabs the creature, as it is distracted by Dorgio, but his knife turns on the mail and nearly twists out of his hand.

[ooc round 4]

The undead swordsman steps towards Dorgio.

Jon stabs the creature again, but the attack seems to have little effect.

The swordsman chops twice at the priest, inflicting griveous wounds on him!

"He is walking dead!" Bennedict says calmly, stepping again free of the creature's reach. "Do not waste your weakening rays on him, they are made up of the same stuff as him, and will not harm him. Your knife isn't going to do anything either, Jon. The healing prayers of the Morninglord, on the other hand..."

He stops suddenly and fishes around in his bag, pulling free the magical mirror from the tower. "Would this mirror perhaps be the one that she gave you, sir knight?"

OOC: +1 to attacks for the party, on top of the +1 from bless.

The undead knight pauses in his brutal attack against Dorgio, and turns to face Benn, sword dripping with the blood of the priest.

''THE MIRROR, YES...''

Norzak sends his shadow after the rider and tries to get there himself after he sees Dorgio fall.
