Ignatia says "You're an archer, right? If we open the window, do you think that you can hit the guy fast enough to kill him before he can cry out? I'm thinking that Lukas and I should make a break out the front, while you run out the back. If we're lucky, these strangers will help us, and if we're not, they should be distracted enough to keep you from getting on your horse and riding away." Lukas nods as he straps on his sword belt. "That works for me."
"I can do that, yeah. But, what then? Even if I escape alone, I don't know where I'm going. And I'd rather not be alone in the forest at all, especially since I messed up that faceless man's plans." Allune sighed, "Ugh... no, the guy watching the back of the bar seems lazy. If we suddenly charge at him, we can take him by surprise. And maybe keep him from making a sound."
Boleslaw is silent for a moment. "I trust your instincts. If you think that they intend to mistreat a woman, then it's our duty as Chistians and as chevaliers to help her." He dismounts, heading towards the in. At the same moment, the Lithuanian knight exits the tavern with most of his men. As Mszczuj sees it, there are seven men on Boleslaw's side, and seven on the Lithuanian's. Boleslaw walks up to the Lithuanian. "I hear that you have ill intentions towards a young woman, sir?" The Lithuanian cracks his neck. "Get out of here, Pole. This is Lithuanian ground, you have no authority here." Boleslaw draws his sword. "I have the authority given to me by God. Leave, before I-" he doesn't complete his sentence, as the Lithuanian's hand drops as though to reach for his sword, before quickly drawing his dagger. The blade sails up, stabbing Boleslaw through his chin, uncovered by a mail coif, and the old man falls to the ground. The Lithuanian draws a longsword and shouts to his men. "KILL THEM ALL!" His warband draw their weapons and charge towards the Poles, who draw their own weapons. Dobron, Boleslaw's squire, lets out a shriek of grief and anger, charging at the oncoming men.
"Alright, then we-" There's a mournful shriek in the village. Looking out, Allune sees Darius kill the elderly knight, before charging with his warrior's at the knight's men. Lukas looks at the melee. "Let's go, shoot the bastard guarding the back, and we'll hit Darius in the rear!"
Mszczuj draw his own sword and charge to the fight, join to rest of Boleslaw men's. " Death to Lithuanian!" He scream and stab in the face nearest warrior Lithuanian, in place where armor didn't protect him.
Allune was taken by surprise as she heard the shriek, but when she saw a fight break out. She immediately thought to help the strange knights that Darius was fighting. "Alright, let's give them some cover!" She said, opening the window, and nocking one hunting arrow, before firing it at the man guarding behind the tavern. She then tries to snipe more of Darius' men from above, before following Lukas and Ignatia downstairs.
Mszczuj ducks beneath the axe swing of one of the men, slamming his sword into the weak spot in the armpit, stabbing him in the heart. He sees Boleslaw's murderer cut down two Poles with his sword, and Andrzej ducking and backing away from a man with a mace. An arrow flies into the neck of a man in front of Mszczuj, loosed from a window in the tavern, and he briefly sees the blonde woman he met earlier, holding a bow. The redhead, and a man in plate armour, charge out from behind the tavern, attacking the Lithuanians from behind. Taken off guard by the sounds of fighting, the man in the back never even sees the arrow that kills him. Allune loosed a hunting arrow, but was able to hit him in the eye, where no armour was protecting him. Lukas and Ignatia jump down from the window, only one story up, and head around the building to enter the fray. Firing into the village, she's able to hit one of the Lithuanian warriors, who slumps to the ground.
Allune didn't flinch from killing off her own country men, as the same country men were trying to capture her. And once Lukas and Ignatia joined the fray, the busty blond jumps down as well and begins to fire off more arrows.
Mszczuj join to help Andrzej, stabing his sword to hit mace men in armpit. "We fight under Piast banner! Courage!" He made battlecry, to remind men about mark of kings and hoping it will support them!
With the fight ongoing, it's harder for Allune to aim for weak spots. She looses four hunting arrows into a man, before he finally collapses to the ground. Darius turns his head, seeing her, and immediately charging at her. Lukas spots this, and gets between them, but Darius is by far the better swordsman, parrying Lukas' swing before breaking the young man's nose with the sword pommel, and tripping him to the ground. Darius breaks away from the melee, facing Allune. "You enjoyed me, girl, don't even try to lie about it. You're going to be mine." He begins to approach. The men cheer at Mzczuj's battle cry, fighting harder, the shock wearing off. The man attacking Andrzej is hit by Mszczuj's sword, dropping his mace and backing away, bleeding heavily. Dobron hits a Lithuanian's helmet, dazing him, before Cezary cuts his throat. Seeing this change of events, the Lithuanians begin to back away before they rout, running around the men of Masovia to get to their horses and escape. Boleslaw's men, in a rage, chase them. As this happens, Mszczuj sees Boleslaw's killer approaching the busty blonde, having beaten down a young man trying to protect her.
"No mercy!" Boleslaw shoot in rage, like rest of men angry for death of sir Boleslaw. With sword red of blood, he noticed murder of their leader, as he chase on woman. Mszczuj go after him and stab him in the back of knee, where armor must be weaker. He want his blood on blade.
@asddas193 Darius approaches, utterly intent on taking Allune. He lunges, arms outstretched, not seeing the mustachioed Pole behind him. Mszczuj's sword smashes past the weak armour, carving through the kneecap. The Lithuanian warrior screams in pain, instinctively whirling around to smash Mszczuj on the forehead with the pommel of his sword. "Bastard!" He raises the sword to stab Mszczuj, who lies sprawling on the ground.
@Regin34 Allune was paralyzed as Darius charged at her, but when the mustached man suddenly destroy's the old man's kneecaps. And just as Darius was about to stab the pole, Allune quickly nocks, and fires an arrow toward Darius' shoulder.
'I never even thought I'd have a lover,' Angelo smiled at the demoness, 'Let alone a succubus among the ranks of the Inquisition.' He roamed his hands over her red skin, 'Is Marguerite your proper name or is it a cover identity you took on?'
@Regin34 The arrow bounces off Darius' armoured shoulder plate, but the impact is forceful, shoving the old man to the side. Stumbling because of his injured knee, he falls to the ground, sword out of reach. Mszczuj sees him get up onto his elbows, unable to stand, drawing the dagger that killed Boleslaw. Darius looks desperately at Allune. "I-I'll make you a countess! You'll be rich, I swear! I'll treat you well, you'll have money, power, whatever you want!" He points the dagger at Mszczuj, holding his guantlet in front of his unarmoured face.
"It wasn't the name I had when I was created, but now I'm Marguerite. That's the name you know me by, so we should stick to that." She caresses him.
Mszczuj get up and stab hard his sword in hand of Boleslaw murder, with dagger. " Oh no, you won't die yet. Not until you repaid for what you have done. "
@asddas193 The sword knocks the dagger away, denting the metal of his gauntlet. He looks between Allune and Mszczuj. "Pole, I have money! I'll pay you, just walk away."
Angelo nodded and chuckled, 'Don't want me to blurt out your demon name in public?' His hand went to Marguerite's face, cupping her cheek, before it went higher to her horns but stopped just short, 'May I touch them?'
She laughs. "Sure." They feel solid and rocky, though when his fingers brush against the tips, he notes that she breathes heavily, biting her lip.
