Ishtar immediately nods, and keeping up his pace runs up the tsairs two at a time, on reaching the floor, he instinctively ducks, to avoid any sort of ambush, then sticks to the wall slowly checking the room.

The barkeeper tells Kravis that a dark man had walked into the room and up the stairs only minutes ago. He recalls the man's face as being distinctly dark. An islander probably, he tells him.
-----
The rooms of the floor seem to be fairly empty. Ishtar spots a door leading to the terrace.

IShtar using his tiger's paw ability for any dodging any attack, runs forward, spear in his hand.

Lifaen starts talking to everyone who might not look too drunk. Or people who are acting drunk. The wrong-doer would obviously try to kill him so he asks questions with awareness. He does not take any beer as it is against his nature.

Kravis finishes his Pint and runs towards Lifaen. Whispers something in his ears and runs up the stairs.

Before Kravis can traverse the stairs, a small dagger flies into his back, only narrowly missing his spinal cord. The man crumples onto the steps.
The dagger was that of the man who had just entered the bar. The jolly young men were silenced, their eyes frozen with fear. He spots Lifaen and reveals yet another dagger.
"C'mon magic-boy, show me how you play your mainland games."
((Yes, the last quote IS ripped off))
-------------------------------------------------------
Ishtar bursts through the door, his spear ready to disembowel any man who might come at him.
Nothing
The cold, humid night hid any clue of the man's presence. Several crates lie here.

Ishtar puts his hand in his head, thinking of the only other possibility,"nuts!No..". Once again using his speed of anubis, he heads back for the ground floor running to the stairs, as he looks down ready to descend he sees Kravis lying on the floor, he turns around, with a feeble attempt to raise his spear in defence, as.......

Before Ishtar can even reach the staircase, an angry Meridean bursts from behind a crate and elbows him. The warrior is knocked off balance and falls on the ground.
Ishtar: 1 Wound Kravis 1 Wound

A fleet of small, white sailships moves into the bay, ready to dock at the harbour forcefully, if neccessary. Each boat holds 5 meridean soldiers. Due to the destruction of the Dock's seige weaponry, the guards are unable to fight back from afar.

Lifaen looks blankly at the man. "Being a psychic does not mean that i have to use magic to kill, you filthy fool." Lifaen says this with rage. Even though he did not particularly like Kravis he was still a good man and he was loyal. With this Lifaen runs in a zigzag and jumps high into the air with agility and brings his staff down upon the man and........

Ishtar staggers up to his feet, seeing the man towering above him, he had to finish him off as he could hear shouts below, coming from lifaen and had seen kravis lying on the stairs.Getting up and triggering his staff of air(increasing attack), he effortlessly plunges the spear at the man, then taking out his scimitar bangs at the man repeatedly.

The staff comes down with a sickening thunk and the man yells in pain. Almost simultaneously, he makes a clean swiping motion with his dagger, cleanly cutting into Lifaen's leg. He stumbles onto the ground.
It isn't long before the third Meridean escapee walks into the bar.
A well organized trap!
------------------------
The Meridean is impaled on the spear. Blood gurgles out of his mouth. He grabs his second knife and somehow sticks it into Ishtar's shoulder. After a few gurgles and pitiful spasms, the man dies quietly.
Ishtar - 2 wounds Kravis - 1 wound Lifaen - 1 wound

"Bloody coward. All cowards in this hell-hole. No one can face a magician . Bah! Now lets see how you get me."
Kravis swings his hands in a weird motion and brings them down on the floor. Immediately hundreds of various sized portals.
Then he puts his hand inside one of them and his hand appears behind the him . He pulls out the dagger stuck in his back.
The gods are with me!
Kravis jumps into a portal, stabs the meridean escapees many times with "their" dagger and his Dwarven Battle Sword.

Every stab came with a few defensive cuts from the Meridean. The axe swings are slow and easy to dodge for the escapees. By the time Kravis returned to his original position, his hands were thoroughly bruised and each of the the escapees holes in them. Screaming profanities, they fling their daggers at Kravis before he can jump into another portal. The knives strike him in his leg and in his arm. Lifaen also gets knocked in the process.
Ishtar - 2 wounds Kravis - 3 wound Lifaen - 2 wound

((This is getting sooooooooo wierd, its like a tom and jerry cartoon, you stick your hand in ur nose and it comes out through your ear!!)) Ishtar takes out the knife from his shoulder and keeps it in his bag,sheathes his scimitar,picks up his spear then searches the meridean for anything of interest.

Ishtar finds a small red stick with a small rope attatched to it in the man's pocket.
((Note to Ishtar :- This is dynamite. This stick is smaller and less powerful than the one used to blow up the armory. Being a medieval person, you have no idea how to use it or what it is.))
