[KQ] by popular demand

Hadama tells the Fae to spread out and, given that his instructions have worked very well so far, they absolutely do so. However, it appears - unfortunately - that every ounce of luck they had was wasted last turn, because they are close to useless when it comes to being able to shoot at the Owlbear a second time. Thankfully, the mermanta's aim is better, and he strikes the creature a second time with an icicle.

Ray's throwing knife follows suit, burying itself in the beast's feathery hide, and it lets out a shriek-roar of pain that almost (almost) swallows up the sound of Everest's bright barks through the night. Whirling, on fire and in pain, the Owlbear blindly swipes out with an enormous, heavy paw tipped with talons...

And directly connects with Darkeye.

Call it a fluke (or some really spicy rolls, more like), but Darkeye manages to loose his axe on the creature even as he's thrown across the snow by the force of the strike, and it hits the beast right where he aimed. Alas, Darkeye will be feeling this one for days - the talons have sliced cleanly through clothing, opening some deep lacerations on his chest.

The Owlbear rears up and screeches its rage, and all becomes suddenly, significantly darker. The cold and the snow and its tough exterior have done the job, and it is no longer on fire.
