Black Luke stared at the being in awe, he had herd, and seen, and even killed goblins before, this being was different, it was large, hairy, and brutish. It barely fit down the hole. The elves with him stoped their small talk and a pause fell over them.
"A Buheer..." whispers Magandella.
"Elves die now." said the Beast as it charged forward striking Ceesul and killing him.
"Arrows fly!" shouts Rose letting her arrows go. They deflect off the beast's shield.
Black Luke's crossbow bolt strikes true. The Buheer smashes its heavy morning star into Esmerelda, she feels her ribs crack. Rose steps forth striking the creature and drawing blood, it attempts to strike Esmerelda again but misses while also deflecting Marsha's and Abigale's assault.
The creature scowls at the group as it handedly blocks their next onslaught of swords and weapons. Abigale seeing an opening, then strikes the Buheer, wounding it. It immediatly strikes her back, felling her. Magandella lets fly with a dagger to no effect, but for the beast to turn its eyes toward her. Rose takes this moment to strike it again, wounding it more, and the chance is not lost by Marsha, and lastly Black Luke getting the final hit in, slaying the Buheer.
"Ok, thats enough for one day." said Black Luke "What was that thing?"
"Thart was a Buheer, you humans call them Bugbears." said Rose.
"Lets take it's gear back" said Marsha.
"I will check it for coin as well." nods Black Luke.
"Abigale still lives." Esmerelda states, "but needs more than i can give, my healing is spent, and I can hardly stand, we have to get her out and go now."
They once more turn toward the exit, and see another figure standing there.
" Oh, no." Magandella said "More trouble."
