Shouts of "We're coming to help!" rang from lower down the hill and our group ran into sight, charging up the hill.
Rodanti and Caprin slowly tried to catch their breath and untangle themselves without making their wounds any worse.
Sgt. Tokros spun around and moved in just past Jurkand, looked for any weak spots on Raptor 2, saw where its chest was heaving and aimed for that spot, using longsword and spear to the body again.

The party arrived just as the salve was being daubed onto the wounds. Looking around at the scene of battle, Mel remarked, "We seem to be a bit late, but we can give you a hand with the butchering."
Deramask added, "There is a campsite at the bottom of the valley. You will have no problem using it, as these are our tribal grounds. Other predators will soon be here smelling a fresh kill, so you cannot stay here."
Rodanti winced as he moved his arm into a more comfortable position. "It always good to find friendly locals, it makes my job much easier."
