Chapter Three: The Silverpelt Wolf

Chapter 3: The Silverpelt Wolf

"Kill the Draenei, I will take the human an' learn more about why they're here." Razkal said to the assassin behind Kyline.

As Razkal moved around the table to pick up Angela, Kyline pulled out a thin dagger from her belt slowly, escaping the notice of the assassin. Dealing with many rogues in her lifetime she learnt that having a dagger concealed is a life saver. Not a normal weapon for a paladin, most enemies do not bother looking for it. Kyline grabbed the attackers offending hand with her right making it seem as she is struggling. She whipped her left behind her body, dagger in hand, slicing a large gash into the assassin's thigh. She felt the squirt of red blood upon her hand indicating she struck the artery successfully. As the assassin fell back in pain Kyline felt a slight nick upon her neck from the poisoned dagger. Slowly blood dripped down her neck.

Razkal stopped what he was doing and stood up. Kyline snapped her hand throwing her only weapon towards the closest goblin. With unbelievable accuracy, Kyline avoided killing the goblin as the hilt of the dagger hit hard into his head. Kyline sprinted over to where Razkal stashed her weapon. She looked into the pit but nothing was there. Frustrated Kyline looked up as a goblin approached her. Kyline resolved to fight this goblin and steal his sword. She stood up quickly but received a blow of dizziness as the potent poison began to take effect. Her chances were looking very slim. She was not going to give up. She got into a fighting stance and waited for the hammer wielding goblin. He noticed her weakness and increased his speed charging at her. When he reached Kyline she was ready and dodged his high swing. Kyline then swept her foot around tripping up the goblin. She popped back up and disarmed him with a break of his wrist. She grabbed the fallen weapon and hit the goblin in the head with the butt of the hammer.

As Kyline knocked one Goblin out, another rushed toward her. She panicked as the poison started to take effect. She called upon the power of the light forming a hammer of justice above the rushing goblin. He tumbled to the floor as the conjured hammer fell upon his head and exploded with a flash of light.

The last goblin other than Razkal looked at Kyline with horror. Knowing she had little time before the poison killed her she leapt up high beyond the physical capabilities of a human, toward the goblin. She swung with the two-handed hammer attempting to hit the goblin square in the face. With her perception contorted she missed as she landed. The goblin attacked from her left. She just barely parried the thrust as she turned, facing her duel wielding opponent. She successfully disarmed her opponent of one sword as she kicked her leg out. With shear ferocity, Kyline swung the off balanced hammer towards the goblins stomach. She succeeded in crippling the goblin as he fell forward in pain.

Kyline walked over to Razkal, weapon ready while taking a final glance at the almost dead assassin. Blood squirted out of the large wound she made, creating a wide radius of blood splatter and a large pond near the victim.

"Agree to listen to my story and he will not die" Kyline said stumbling.

"Let 'im die he was only hired recently I have no loyalties to him."

She shrugged at Razkal's reply knowing that the light would not give her the power to heal the assassin. Assassins are the embodiment of evil that Kyline swore to fight. Using the light to heal such evil would be abusing the power she was given.

"Then I guess listen to me or die."

"That's a better threat tall one." Razkal said confidently looking up at Kyline who is over 4 feet his height. "Talk!"

Razkal stepped over an unconscious goblin, and sat back down. Kyline picked Angela up gently and put her back in her seat. Kyline paused knowing that if she did not extract the poison she will die. She summoned the power of the light and placed a hand over her neck. A warm light radiated from her hand as she cast her spell. Underneath the light, green foggy clouds slowly lift from the incision. She pulled her hand away and the fog followed. Pointing her palm to the ground she dispelled the incantation dropping the now liquid poison on the ground. Sighing with relief as her vision came back she looked at Razkal with confusion seeing as he had an obvious advantage, yet he surrendered.
