The snow leopard steps on the corpse of the summoned raven, and it crumbles to ash as the feline's jaws puncture troll flesh. The barest stink of burned flesh wafts back to the party, and it intensifies slightly when Skulda's magical cry goes out, and the great cat bites again, the troll dropping from the gaping bite marks. The cat spits out the hunk of flesh and coughs; they must taste foul.
Skulda's magic still lingering in his ears, Thorgrim slays the tanarukk that had struck him twice.
At Bjartr's urging, his wolf, Geirr sprints past, bumping legs as he scrambles down the length of the cave, then turns left, leaping over the body Thorgrim just felled, sinking his teeth into the tanarukk on the other side. Bjartr moves forward past Agni and Skulda, into the middle of the fray, seeking out targets for the spell he intends to cast, and studying what foes he can see, based upon Agni's words about these "Tanarukk." His raven friend lags behind near the back of the party.
Then the trolls advance on the human intruders. One exits the narrow opening he'd been stepping through, and approaches Thane the snow leopard, stepping over the body of his fallen clansmen. He swings his axe and gnashes his jaws with its large tusks; his axe leaves a bad wound, but his bite misses the mark.
Another troll steps through the opening this one just vacated, hefting his axe with a wild look in its softly glowing eyes.
The one bitten by Geirr withdraws back toward the blazing fire in the other room. Bjartr and Thorgrim can see it dancing its fingers through the flames as its companion steps forward to hack at and bite the wolf, drawing blood both times. In the other direction, Einar sees several more foes moving around, trying to get at you in the entryway.
