Malene 10, Animated Armor 20

Both reach out their hands to grab at the elf. [14 vs 8 (natural 1). No chance to block. Damage: 7.] Malene feels the first slap her across the face as the second goes in for her ribs. [25 vs 15. Chance to block: 21. Damage: 5] It successfully hits and Malene feels the wind knocked out of her.

There’s nothing for it but to run, and she continues down the hall, hoping no more enemies emerge out of the stoneworks. [13 vs 4 & 19] One falls behind but the other keeps pace.

She’s escaped one, but the second attempts another attack. [15 vs 16] Malene dodges this hit and finds herself against the door. She rattles the handles, attempting to pull open the massive doors, praying they’re unlocked.
