Follow the main group through the ambush

As the bridge gave out many of the guards were caught completely unaware. Luckily, Fuu was quicker to react.

While some of the guards fell or were dragged into the river, becoming easy prey for the Lizardfolk, Fuu was able to nimbly jump from log to log of the collapsing bridge, keeping herself above the tide as she quickly made her way back to dry land. She gave a few quick slashes at some of the Lizardfolk, but they were mostly intended to keep them at bay while she got back to the rest of the Bravos and the guards still on land.

Liv kept her wits about her as well, staying calm and quiet in the back of her cart, her rifle at the ready. As the guards started to fall, the lizardfolk quickly reached the carts, and when one of them slashed open the back of the wagon she was hiding in, she promptly leveled her rifle and shot him in the head.

Robin, for her part, was able to keep pace with the Lizardfolk fairly well. Her dueling style was poorly suited to taking on this many opponents at once, but with some carefully timed bursts of arcane power, she was able to emanate a few wide slashes of energy downing several attackers and causing the rest to back up wearily. With her rapier poised and at the ready, Robin lead the rest of the rear guards in retreating, back toward the front of the caravan so that they might face the attacking lizardfolk as a coherent unit.

Emmaline was having the hardest time of the four-- the Lizardfolk had ambushed them so quickly that she didn't have any opportunity to take them out with ranged attacks, and was **** to engage them in melee. Still, Emmaline was a competant fighter and her flame whips made the lizardfolk think twice about getting in range of her.
