Dem stepped closer, angrily yelling at it. Egfor's heart leapt into his throat, fearing the worst for his love.
Thorbeck picked up his sword and yelled the moment Egfor ordered them not to move and fired off a bolt. Egfor yelps as the ballista bolt narrowly misses Thorbeck. The dwarf did not seem bothered. Thorbeck picked up some snow and started to... hurl snow balls at the drake. Egfor stared, baffled. He swore under his breath, "Snowballs... seriously? Bard is spinning in his grave." The company continues to mock and throw snowballs at the dragon. Egfor isn't sure whether to laugh or cry. The drake is just... agitated by these puny beings.
Egfor loads and fires off another ballista bolt. He clips and grazes the underside of it's neck, but the bolt does not sink in. He swears once more and loads another bolt. The drake advances, knocking Dem aside. Egfor snarls, his mate being hurt was a direct threat and challenge. He pulled the bolt from his belt and advances, furiously screaming, "If it's me you want, come and get me!" Rhavi looked rather nervous, as she stood close to Egfor. Dem rises to his feet, blanching as he hears Egfor's challenge.
Thorbeck launches himself at the beast, stabbing at it's foot. The drake shook the dwarf off his foot, growing more and more annoyed, bashing the dwarf off on a rock. The drake launches itself at Egfor. Egfor lets out a startled cry adn drove the bolt up into it's chest as hard as he could before the two of them fell over the edge of the cliff.
"EGFOR!"
