Alora can't hear much over the hard breathing of Mazzy and Minsc. Minsc abruptly lays around himself with his sword... and hits nothing. Xan casts Armor on himself.
Nope, just terrified generally (Death screams and battle and whatnot... it's not an easy life for this cat...). He looks in Kivan's direction and lets out of yowl of distress... like he is looking to Kivan to reassure him...
Alora still hears nothing. Minsc once again lays about with his sword, and this time he hits somthing! He strikes down the mage with a lucky strike... killing the man dead.
I will go and get Edwin's scrolls and magic books. I'll give them to Xan. I'm not sure Edwin would have wanted him to have them but I don't know what else to do with them.
Milo shies back from Alora, but eventually allows himself to be picked up (after sniffing her hands and licking up a few stray cake crumbs), but when she carries him past Kivan's body, he bolts from her hands and climbs up on Kivan, meowing. When Kivan doesn't respond, Milo sits there, licking his cheek and trying to get Kivan to move, to do something. He turns to Alora and makes the most heartbreaking questioning mew...

OOC Steady on. You're making me tear up.
Alora is relieved that it was Eldoth not Kivan that she killed by accident. She scoops Milo up and takes him away from Kivan's body. She gives him the left over chocolate cake to distract him.
Pleased with his newfould skill, he says, "Mincs is both Bard and Ranger. See evil, Boo? Spin, Boo, Spin! Ha, ha, ha!" There was an awful lot of blood, some from friend and some from foe, but that did not worry him overmuch. "Stuff of legends!"
OOC Time for me to head to bed. Thanks for a very exciting - if somewhat bloody - session. I will be back next time after reading up on the dietary requirements of felines.
OOC: Holy crap, I leave for a few hours and I miss the big fight!
"We have victory...but a hollow one, I fear. These men cannot have been working alone, and with our group decimated by the fighting, their comrades will no doubt finish us off before the morrow."
Xan begins looking through Edwin's spellbook and scrolls. If he can, he'll try to copy any spells he doesn't know to his spellbook.

I think I'll drop in as Branwen, if she hasn't been called yet.
