Winded, dazed and bloodied Alsdair would not have survived the attack if it wasn't for his armor. Snapping his visored face to the beast he brings both shield and sword upward, intent on smashing them into the animals head.

The large animal lets out a terrible cry of pain and is killed immediately by the marauding sword. It falls down beside Alsdair, dead.
Thunderous steps are heard. The troll is running towards you, with even more tigers pursuing him!

- 'Run!?' Alsdair shouted. He was a knight! He didn't run away from an enemy! A tactical retreat yes, but run!? Alsdair got up, hissing with pain. His vision was covered by black dots, he waved them away. He looked around, the trol was currently occupied, his horse was in the distnce limping away (I'll probably have to put it out of misery...) Alsdair seriously doubted he'd be able to outpace a tiger... Gritting his teeth he lifted his shield and sword, readying to assist Ishtar, or to cover his back if any of the tigers treid to attack...

The trolls falls face flat into the snow. Ishtar is crushed beneath the giant body. Alsdair is thrown off balance. The sabres leap onto the troll's body, tearing and biting at it.

ishtar squirms under the body,"owch!" ishtar tries to lift the body but to no avail, he puts his hand out and feels for the tooth, he pulls it out, then slashes his way, trying to get out from under the carcass.

Alsdair stumbles around before regaining his balance. Seeing what had hapened he runs towards Ishtar and helps him to his feet. - Perhaps now their busy with the carcass we can make our escape? The knight offered.

"yeah well, i might be a little slower now though, ishtar says pointing to his wounds, lets move." ishtar using speed of anubis runs as fast as he can away from the tigers.

The two manage to get away, narrowly escaping the hungry pack of tigers.

A day later, you are still stuck within the valley. It seems as if yall werent such great navigators after all. The most obvious way to civilisation is by moving towards the source of a trail of smoke in the sky.
You trugde through the snow..

Alsdair wraps his shredded cloak closer around himself. - How long do you think it will take us to reach the source of that smoke, Ishtar?

"it depends on what company we recieve, so keep aware." ishtar said as he slightly limped through the snow.

((That one-liner was pretty cool.))
Soon enough, the two come upon a graveyard of bones. Not human bones, but that of mammoths, towering fortresses against the cold. A little innuit boy seems to be fishing around in the snow looking for something.

"uh -oh." ishtar sighs to himself,"we may be heading for giant, mammoth sized troubles alsdair, lets ask that boy for directions." ishtar walks slowly up to the boy,"hello what's ur name?" he asks kindly.

Alsdair was silently gazing at the bones, they were collosal. Bigger than the oldest oaks of his home... He did not like the idea of this brat being alone amongst these bones, not concern. Alsdair was a knight, a ruler and he always suspected the worst from commoners being somewhere where they shouldn't be... he immediatly suspected the boy of some vile activity. His hand went for his sword as he asked, - And what are you doing here? It was asked in the tone that indicated that an answer was expected, bah, demanded. Few people did not reply when asked in this manner...

"I wasnt doing anything! I was just.... looking for something.."
With this, the boy puts his hands behind his back, clearly hiding something.
