h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I move my gladius in to block his katana, and move mine to attack.

[Ecg Unagi]: (To Kyara) : "If it would make you feel any better about it..."
*Has the gollums revert to being inanimate, but stay there. Like statues.*
"Eh?"

<,Oh, I thought you were throwing the dagger at the gollums, but you weren't. My bad.>

*observes the gollums with a raised eyebrow.*

Ok...

[Ecg]: *Shrugs*
The gollums each were stuck in a different final pose... some kicking a foot out, others making faces a few with their arms up, as though to be shaking their fists.

[Ecg Unagi]: ~The fun part'll be... just wait 'til you see what happens when they get hit.~
The clay appears to have hardened too.

*raises her bow again, shoots three arrows so that they make contact with the gollum almost simultaniously.*

[Ecg]: *Counts a few seconds using his fingers...*
*1,2,3...*
After that it shatters.

*grabs the blade out of the air and launches it at the nearest gollum, where it strikes it in the side of the neck and is buried up to the hilt*

[Ecg Unagi]: "If they ever have a festival,- or say maybe some sort of a carnival in Imardin, I think I know what sort of booth I'll bring..."
*s*

"That's one down, well- acxtually two if you count the other one form before. Perhaps I spoke ... a bit too soon?"

[Ecg]: "Nice."
~3 down and 2 or 3 to go.~

The head of the gollum Elexorian attacked slides off, then hits the ground and shatters.
*Ecg tries to keep score accurately*

[Ecg Unagi]: "So, that'll be 3 down, 2 by Kyara, one by Elexorian... 2 left to go."

*Wonders what to do about finding a prize for the targets "game."*

**
*fires an arrow towards the next gollum.... and misses.*

Oops.

*tries again this time hitting the target.*

[Ecg]: *corrects himself*
"Make that 3..."
*picks a flower*
"..."

There is now but one gollum left.

*Ecg pauses*
...

[Ecg Unagi]: "Just for fun, I'm going to toss in this to see if your arrow (/shot) can catch..."

*His jawdrops*

I'm sorry about your brother Arc; the guilt must be terrible even though it is really not your fault. I'm not very comforting am I?

...

*declines the sparing* I'm an Archer

...

*leans forward to squint at the clay and dirt gollums* Solid arrangement

Do you think we can set up gollems on our walls as decoy for their arrows later on? And as our shields. Archers can do no damage if it's close up enough for them to take us out with a sword.

*grimly* I for one have no intention of using my magic if I can avoid it and survive

It feels like cheating to just tickle them with the wind or pour out their flames with a sprout of rain

*shoots at gollem and it grazes the side of the neck*

must train more at the grounds
