Tegol was the last to exit the camp site but as he made his way to the crevices opening a sixth troll had ambushed him and forced him back into the narrow space, Tegol tried to draw his sword but the hilt caught on the rock wall. Before he could adjust the troll was one him, its four arms swung wildly as it tried to slash and cut Tegol with it's claws. As it pushed Tegol found it harder and harder to dodge the beasts attacks. It was driving him into a corner and if he'd didn't act soon he'd nothing more than a sitting duck, In a last ditch effort Tegol dived for the gap between the trolls legs hoping to slide out the other side. As he did one of the troll hand side swiped him and he was tossed into a wall of rock and ice.
The troll wasting no time pounced on the injured Nocturne two of it had had him pinned the lower two were used to keep it's balance, Tegol thrashed trying to break the beasts grip but to no avail. The troll opened its gruesome jaw its breath smelled of rotten meat and some other putrid smell. It bit down connecting with his chest plate the beast reeled one of its' teeth had broken against the armor. But it refused to let go of its prize and pulled Tegol up with it slamming him against the other side of the crevice, once it had recovered it went for the kill a second time however it aimed for his instead intent on finishing him off. With no other option Tegol let out a quick incantation the amulet under his armor roared to life and a bolt fire shot from underneath his armor spread through the openings around his neck arms and waist, taken by surprise the troll released him and stumbled back. Tegol was in immense pain the fire had scotched his chest, both arms, his waist and part of his face. If he got out of this he'd heal it later for now he still need to settle matter with the troll luckily he now found himself on the opposite side of the crevice the mouth just behind him. This he had plenty of room to draw his sword.
With sword in hand Tegol charged the beast before it could regain it's composure he plunged the sword into the beast chest, or at least that's where he thought he had; the area around his right eye had been burned in his attempt at freedom, with his aim off the sword had connect just to the left of the trolls heart still deadly but not quick enough to finish it before it could retaliate. It let out an ear piercing cry before it flung one of its hands at Tegol knocking him towards the exit. The troll began to advance sword still embedded in its chest, each step became more labored than the last for it every breath harder, the beast could tell it was dying but rather than try to save itself it seemed hell bent on dragging Tegol down with it. Tegol still in pain from his burns was barely able to stand before the troll was in front of him, its massive claw positioned over its head ready to deliver a death blow of it's own. But just as the beast prepared to strike it instead fell forward almost pinning him to the ground. Tegol had used the last of his strength to throw himself just out of the trolls path the body fell just outside the crevice's opening one of its hands slumped just over the edge of the cliff side where the other were.
