'Soon, you will be undone!' yells Tristan, striking again, furiously.

Standard: Enfeebling Strike on Castellan.
To-hit:     1d20+13=23

[Xander Morhaime]

"I will not fall alone!"

With that battleshout the Castellan brought his halberd down on Tristan, striking a telling blow. Tristan's armour quite literally saved his life - without it, the noble paladin would have been gutted like a fish - as it stood, he remained greviously injured, while your opponent seemed determined to fight on despite the increasingly serious injuries you inflicted upon him. Soot-black smoke was seeping out from places where he had been cut or stabbed, forming a thin mist over the whole battle. Following up his success against the paladin, the Castellan brought his halberd around in another sweeping blow, this time striking Saliak and also inflicting a serious injury.

Ma'kirr and Ryltar miss, everyone else gets hits in.
The Castellan is bloodied again.
Aden heals Tristan for 13 points (34 remaining).
The Castellan *would have* one-shotted Tristan, but his armour saved him.
Tristan still takes 18 damage (16 remaining) and is bloodied.
The Castellan then hits Saliak as well for 16 points (20 remaining) and in return takes 7 damage from Tristan's mark.

[S.K. Ren]

This bastard doesn't listen, Ma'kirr thought. The battle raged on but for the most part she was being ignored. Then a new thought occured, something that she should have done in the first place. Dissapointingly, she continues to make herself seem even less a threat.

Standard Action: Open the Gate of Battle on Castellan; Attack 1d20+8=15 vs Reflex; Damage 2d10+6=18
  ~Free Action: If I hit, Flurry of Blows on Castellan for 6 damage, leaving him in place.

[Madtrixr]

"HEY! Son of a...Tristan! Focus! If you can stay focused on the battle, you can shrug off any wound! Now get back in it and FIGHT!!!" Aden then figures out where he should strike, and thrusts his sword just right to try and catch the castellan a bit off-guard, leaving him open to someone else's assualt.

Minor: Inspiring Word: Surge+ (1d6=6) on Tristan

(filling in for Tavana - Saliak's move)

Saliak's magic heals both him as and Trsitran, at the same time he attacks Castellan with another fiery attack.

[Malek Deneith]

Ryltar ran out of puns for this combat, which apparently degraded his accuracy. Neither his racial ability nor rapier thrust hit their mark.

Move Action -> Minor Action: Using Duelist's Rapier item power - I get Combat Advantage against Castellan for next Attack I do with this weapon.

[Gargulec]

'Oh, oh no...' replies Tristan to Castellan's taunt, striking with all his might. 'You will fall alone... you will die alone... And not a single one will mourn!'

Standard: Glorious Charge on Castellan.
To-hit:     1d20+13=27
Damage;     2d8+5=13 and each ally in two square radius regains 3 HP.

[Xander Morhaime]

"Those that would have mourned me have done so already. Your actions have sealed your fate, and so you will share mine," the Castellan replied, his movements becoming more and more sluggish. Still, he was able to land a blow on Aden.

"You talk too much," he quipped as the halberd struck.

The various healing going around brings Tristan, Ryltar, and Saliak up to full health. Ma'kirr has 30/33 HP, and Aden has 31/34 HP.
The Castellan then hits Aden for 11 points (20 remaining).

[S.K. Ren]

The Castellan seemed to be on his last legs. Desperate to leave her mark, Ma'kirr attempted to topple the Castellan but in her haste failed miserably.

[Madtrixr]

Aden is suddenly struck by The Castellan. He is smacked with great force. But when Aden comes back around, there is fury in his eyes. He immediately slams the Castellan hard in the face with his sword, and then follows up with a vicious sword to the gut.

[Xander Morhaime]

The Castellan staggered for a moment as he was struck, the light of his eyes beneath the helmet now barely a glimmer. "It is... over?" you heard him gasp out as his halberd fell to the floor with a clatter. Wispy trails of smoke rising up from his wounds, the Castellan took an unsteady step forward before dropping to his knees with a heavy clang of metal on stone. His head initially bowed, raised up to look at you. For the briefest moment you thought you could see a face behind the darkness of the helmet, and... a smile? Then the light of his eyes finally faded to nothing and he collapsed forward. The wisps of black smoke turned to a cloud of ash that spread out from where he fell, marking the floor black, while the armor settled with a clatter, the helmet rolling off a short distance before stopping at your feet.

Whoever it was that had occupied the armour was gone now, dead... and whatever magic fuelled him had apparently turned on him now, reducing him to the smear of ash and cloud of smoke hanging in the air where he fell.

Should you wish, you may take the Castellan's weapon and armour.
For now, though, please hold off until Tavana comes back.

[Gargulec]

With a sigh of relief and fatigue, Tristan, dropped his sword and shield, giving the remains of the Castellan a long look. He sat, his bloodied armour clanging loudly.

'And why do I pity him?' he asked himself in tired voice. 'He was not supposed to die with such honour. Not supposed.'

He paused, and finally, with a bit of reluctance, he snatched small symbol of Avandra from his belt. Holding on it tightly, he whispered a prayer, only raising his voice at it's final words.

'...and if you find him worthy, grand him redemption.'

[Madtrixr]

Aden stares for a moment, and then raises his sword high in the air and screams in triumph. he then puts his sword down, and takes the castellans armor and weapons, so that the party may examine them to see what they are.

[Gargulec]

'Put it down, please.' mutters Tristan, looking at Aden 'Looting bodies like that? Where is you honour?'

[Madtrixr]

Aden dumps the stuff in front of the rest of the party. "This is my honour. I delt the finishing blow on a worthy opponent. I feel obligated to collect this as a memento of a epic clash. Besides, we may need this later, you never know."
