Alas, dwarves were not the only ones killed. Some bodies of elves lay sprawled on the ground and many heads roll freely. The captain of the ship lies against the wall, breathing slowly. An arrow lies lodged in his throat. As he breaths his last breath, he says to Moathia, "May the Gods be with you," and then his eyes fog up and his heart ceasese to move.

Konstantin doesn't come down to fight on the deck.
Nobody notices him, but during the fight, he keeps saving his friends.
He watches over Athian, Arist, and Salathe fighting, and without them even seeing it, he kept saving their lives.
During Salathe's fight with a barrel, two dwarves boarded the ship sneakily via the ropes, and tried to crouch behind Salathe. They both rose daggers at Sal's back at the same time, but dropped them as their hands started to shake, and their bodies collapse in an agony.
Konstantin reloads the poisonous bolt.
Right before Arist makes his way to the edge railing, a huge swarf with an axe runs towards him, and raises an axe over Arist's head. Arist doesn't hear that, because of the battle noise, but the axe never reaches the target. The dwarf suddenly starts to blow white bubbles out of his mouth, and collapses on the floor, a small bolt is sticking out of his back. Konstantin reloads quickly.
Athian takes a break from shooting, and Konstantin gives him that break time, by quickly taking out a few archers aiming at Athian's head.
Then, Konstantin starts taking out more dwarves, climbing the ropes. The ropes and hooks keep falling out of shaking hands, as fast action poison paralyzes the enemies.
Konstantin runs out of fast action bolts soon, and starts using slow poison bolts. Those don't work as impressive, and Konstantin drops his crossbow, and jumps down from the maste.
His overcoat waving around in the air, as he spins in combat, he takes out his Silverdaggers and becomes a whirlpool of quick furious action.
Throats get slit around him, and his feet start slipping in blood of his enemies. He gets a few cuts, but his eyes are lit with energy.
Silverblades shine constantly as the dwarves fall.

((posting for ayalla, shes having her error thing again))
Ayalla lays on her bed, absentmindedly stroking the tiny cat laying next to her. Tiger's small frame vibrates with the strength of her purrs, and she drools happily. Ayalla chuckles and distanty hears a bell, probably a warning. She sighs and looks at the cat who has sat up, listening intently to something Ayalla can't hear. The cat leaps off the bed an claws at the door. Ayalla looks unhappy and gets up to stop Tiger from shredding the door.
Tiger...I'm not going up there. I'll just get in the way, and I'll probably have to be saved...
Shouting and the sounds of battle can be heard from above. She sits down, cradling the tiny animal in her arms. Screams of the hurt and dying reach her ears. Ayalla cringes and holds Tiger tighter. The cat wriggles out of her arms and sits by the door yowling. The door creaks open when the ship shudders violetly and Tiger runs out the door. Ayalla jumps to her feet, close in pursuit. The cat race up towards above decks.
Nonono! Get back here Tiger! Arg...
The cat disappears through the door leading to the deck. Ayalla hesitates, realizing she has not brought her armor or firesword. She starts to grin, a feeling of recklessness overcoming her. She pulls out the wand tucked in her belt and joins the chaotic scene on deck.

Konstantin sees Ayalla's cat running between the fighter's blades, as he puts his dagger violently into the next foe. He sees Ayalla rushing after the cat, hesitating to enter the battle scene. He sees her take out her wand, and in that very instant, a dwarf with a sword slides down the rope from behind Ayalla, right above her head.
-Ayalla!!!
Konstantin throws his dagger with all his might, the dagger spins in the air, and knocks the dwarf dead.
-Not this time, chicken legs. I'm not letting your cat mess you up this time.
Konstantin reaches for another throwing knife into his inner pockets, and suddenly feels something in one of the pockets. He remembers!
The Wooden DUCK!
He uses the duck to lure the cat's attention.
-Hey, kitty kitty!
Right when he was about to throw the duck to the cat in Ayalla's direction, so that it runs back to her, Tiger dodges a shield falling on the floor, and runs toward... Salathe.
Konstantin shouts with all his throat:
-SALATHE!!! Throw this into Ayalla's direction and get that damn cat back inside!!!
Konstantin throws the duck to Salathe.
-Ayalla!!!

As the hoards of pirates flood the "Swiftwind" and move nearer, Carahawen puts her wand with smooth moves back in her belt and draws her firesword. With a wild expression in her face she stands at her place her back facing the mast, the shield holding in front of her and awaits the first blow of the dwarves running straight into her direction.
The first one raises his axe with both hands, but he is too slow: Carahawen heads forward and in a smooth nearly gracious movement she plunges her sword deep into his chest and quickly pulls it out again. She has no time to watch the corpse glide to the ground, because the next dwarf attacks. She soon sees her self surrounded by a group of dwarves. Her blade soars through the salty air leaving deep lethal wounds in her enemies' heads and bodies.
With the shield she dodges the blow of one pirate while her sword decapitates another her lips continously whispering deadly spells at a third, though her aim isn't that good without her wand.

Salathe catches the wooden duck and looks at it
"Ducky..."
He gets his attention off the the duck and on tiger, who is now tugging one the pants of a dwarf. The dwarf swats tiger with his hand and plunges his axe into an elven crewmember. Salathe grumbles and unleashes a shruiken into the dwarf's face. Then he runs and snatches up tiger and tosses him into the air towards the mast. He uses his halberd as pole volt as he shoves it into a dwarf and launches himself towards the mast. He catches tiger in the air and grapples to the mast, holding tiger in one hand, and pushes off and leaps to railing off the boat. He steps off the side wlides into a window on the gun deck, and locks tiger in the first cabin he finds. Running back onto the main deck he goes to Ayalla.
"Tiger's safe... will you be alright?"

Dekard, or pirate poor as he was known wanted to prove him self on this boarding. The other men made fun, teased and joked at his expense for the very reason he was always out of coin, squandering it on sure to loose tavern games and whores. The pirate let go of the Elven Bowman pulling his knife free from corpses back. He licked his bottom lip, spat then made a dash for man he thought to cocky with his blades. The human pirate ran up to the rear side of the dagger wielding Konstantin, his right fist lashing out to smack the man in side of the face. ‘You cocky bastard,’ Dekard yelled as his sword hand came up to bear.
With a grin playing his lips Willyan, an Elven pirate kicked the dead body at his feet. It was then he saw Ayalla’s cat its back arched as it squeezed through the narrow gap in a near by door. ‘Ay ay pussy,’ he spoke aloud slightly out of breath and made for the door, pulling it open and entering. He closed it behind him and dashed down the narrow stairs. He paused suddenly to the side of a doorway. The padding of footsteps on wood could be heard coming towards him. He peeked his head swiftly around the door, it was a woman, Ayalla. Leaning back he raised his sword up high he waited.
A couple of the surviving Dwarfs made with wild screams to the Elven warrior Carahawen. With axe raised in both hands Goldashine charged into the woman, his bearded lips shouting a curse. The Dwarfen pirate made to swing his weapon down sure of his victory, then… a liquid fire burned in his chest, His short axe fell from his grip as the world faded to daze then black. The Dwarfs made for her all together, but the woman was swift and skilled, taking all but two of them down. Coinbite, a fat little Dwarf, evil of eye and cunning had squatted down behind the woman as best he could for her moments, as Carahawen spoke words of magic her hand held out with wand. He wrapped his arms around the woman's legs. The Dwarf who the magic was directed at had no need to be told what to do, and ran at the woman jumping for her.
All the while Captain Houk had been watching from the wheel, his anger ever growing at the loses his men were taking. ‘If it was not for those cowards with their crossbows and the like,’ he thought aloud. Still out of the all fighting his eye had been carefully kept on the straw haired swords man Aristeaus. Since the battle had begun he had been challenged only once, the fight ending as quickly as it started, the sword he wielded almost glowing with the radiance of fired metal. The man was close to the railing of the ships, the bold and cocky Athian close behind. Just as was the strong lizard Salathe as he made his way through the frey calling a womans name. Would they come across? Houk wondered pulling his second sword from its scabbard. I do so very much hope so he grins amused loosening up his arms.
( I know the posts I write maybe long so to make it easyer for you and more enjoayble, if you simply want to know what interaction I am inducing for your or another character, simply look to the paragraph with the chars name in bold in it. The fight will not go on forever. But as I said before I wished it to go on long enough for all who wish to have a go to be able to do so. So lets ease up on the supre hero killing spree before there are no pirates left. )

Zarah hears Caras screams and looks around for her friend. Still holding her bow she shoots the dwarf holding her legs in seconds. He dies with a cold, surprised look in his face, still giving Caras legs a kind of hug.
Aiming at the other dwarf seems much harder for her as Cara and him stick so close together.
Zarah waits longer than usual with shooting...insecure...waiting.

Carahawen feels the thight grip of the dwarf's arms becoming loose, turning her head she sees Zarah standing with her bow like a statue. Now that her legs are free she is able to move aside and the dwarf misses her. She reacts at once and slams her shield over his head. It makes a dull sound and the dwarf sinks on the ground. She thankfully nods over to Zarah and starts to make her way over to the rail where the Great Merchant is.

In the midst of the fighting, Sevious had recently joined in. From below deck after sleeping for a time, he reared forward with full chain mail on. The lights of the sun reflected off of it as he moved slowly forward. All around him, some bodies layed. Those of some elven crew members and even some pirates were around upon the ground. Blood puddles lay near their bodies and much blood came from some empty cavities where some heads once sat. Sevious shook his head and quickly looked up at the scene around him. He spotted Aristeaus and Athian fighting over near the side of the ship near the railing, and yet again he looked around more. He could not seem to find the person he was looking for.
"Please be safe Moathia...",Sevious muttered to himself.
He took another quick glance around and could not spot anyone else. So he decided to run over to the two whom were fighting. As he approached, an axe quickly came towards him at head height. Sevious gasped and ducked, the axe almost nearly missing. Breathing hard, Sevious drew his sword and brought it out to the front of him. The dwarf backed up a little as Sevious quickly stood back up.
"Ah...I see we have found our ship...",Sevious said as he brought his short sword up to his battle stance.
The dwarf grinned through his helmet.
"Try yer best."the dwarf said.
"I will do that, but not my best for you.",Sevious said with a slight laugh
The dwarf quickly lunged at Sevious with his axe above his head and soon afterwards brought it down at him. Sevious strafed to the right and brought his sword to the dwarf's back. The dwarf stumbled a little bit but it did not send a critical blow to him. The sword only left a scratch on his armor. He must have been wearing thick armor. The dwarf crouched a little as he stopped himself through a stumble and brought his axe back around at Sevious' legs. Sevious fell backwards just in time near Athian while Athian battled another dwarf. The one that had been fighting Sevious came upon him.
"Ye aren't as tough as I thought. Well this shall be an easy kill.",the dwarf said with a smirk upon his bearded face.
Sevious shook his head and grinned back sadistically.
"What is yer problem?",the dwarf asked.
"Hmm...well...I think you should...",Sevious began to say. And as he said this he put his hand onto his dagger that he had in his belt.,"Think fast!"
Sevious yanked the dagger out of his belt and thrusted it forward into the dwarf's chest. He brought his right hand up quickly and thrusted it too, into the dwarf's chest. Sevious yanked them back quickly and put his dagger back onto his belt. It was still bloody.
"Damn ye.",the dwarf said, and with that he fell back on the ground with his eyes rolled up in the back of his head. Sevious turned around and faced Athian.
"They are losing numbers, but we are as well...but wait...look over there! Is that there captain?!",Sevious said as he pointed his finger over to Captain Houk as he stood there gazing upon Aristeaus. Sevious awaited an answer as soon as Athian killed the next dwarf that had been fighting him.

Dekard's hit caught Konstantin off guard, and he fell off his feet. The sharp feeling of pain in the back of his head soon grew into dullness and numbness. Trying to stay conscious, Konstantin falls on the ground on his back, very close to a knock out.
He sees a sword blade above him. Dekard inflicts a strong blow right into his face. Konstantin quickly finds strength and manages to rise his right hand against the sword. Silverdagger drops on the floor because of a strong blow. Konstantin meets Dekard's second blow with his left silverdagger. He loses them both.
Dekard strikes again, and Konstantin rolls over to the side. The sword gets stuck in the deck for a moment, that moment enough for Konstantin to rotate on his back like a turtle, and shin-kick Dekard with his boot.
Konstantin tries to get up, but Dekard gets up first and soon gives him another smack right in the nose. Konstantin shudders. He raises his hand, but soon receives another punch.
He ducks from the next attack, dives under Dekard, puncing him in the kidney. He runs to his dagger, quickly steps on it, and flips it into the air with his toes. He catches it with his hand, and slices the air where Dekard's face should be. Dekard dodges, and wrestles Konstantin on the ground. He hits his scarred face on the wooden floor.
In the very last moment, when Dekard reaches for his sword to finish the kill, Konstantin takes out a small crossbow bolt. Konstantin's attack is faster then Dekard's and the pirate's stomach is now pierced with slow action poison.
-No pain so far? Let's see how cocky you will be in the next five minutes.
Konstantin kicks Dekard away from him.

‘Baaaah’ Roared Houk hacking his sword into the wooded ships wheel. The sight of the two Elven women, Zarah an archer and Carahawen a warrior, two women for the love of gods taking down a group of at least five salty skinned tar blooded Dwarfs. Zarah coming to her friends aid just in time. Her arrow striking and killing Coinbite as he held the warrior woman’s legs. ‘Back stabbing bastard you were all your life Coinbite, what goes around comes around I suppose.’ He spoke quietly, anger playing in his voice.
The captains eyes followed Sevious Helios clad in chain mail, Grumpsgold a sturdy and confident fighting dwarf moving in to take him on single handed. Houk watched his swords flicking out slightly in reaction to swords mans moves. ‘FOR the love mermaids’ He bellowed at Grumpsgold defeat. ‘What is the matter with you all, your fighting like women, WOMEN!’ his sword rose up in anger, so to did the rouge in his cheeks.
Houk pulled his other sword free, embedded as it was in the wooden wheel and darted over the rail hopping up and taking hold of a taught rope for balance. He cast his gaze over the fighting, a worry played at him. Though many of the Elven crew now lay bloodied and hacked upon the deck, so to did the majority of his men. Yet still the remaining pirates fought with cold fire. The captain looked over his own ship, a few young deck hands and rigging crew scurried about. ‘Leave that, leave that,’ he called out to the men, his face flushed with anger. ‘Get your land loving rumps over there and kill them bastards!’ The men obeyed instantly taking up what ever weapons they could find, a young lad swung across with nothing more that a mop in hand. It was then Houk noticed the small group of the ‘shining’ ones. Aristeaus at the head of the group and as of yet unbloodied. Behind him stood Athian the dagger wielder, Sevious Helios the blade brawler, Carahawen the lady of magic, and not far behind them was Zarah the archer.
The fight between Konstantin K and the pirate Dekard was fast and hard. Both men evenly matched. How ironic it was that Dekard had picked out this man to kill for his cockyness, when it was Dekards own, leaving himself exposed with arms up for the killing blow that was his undoing. The Pirate after being kicked back lay on his side, hands clapsed around the bolt in his stomach. He sobbed as he gently rolled back and forth with the waves of pain that ebbed through him.
The Lizard Salathe continued to fend off pirates, he seeks Ayalla. The woman still below deck an Elven Pirate waiting for her.

Moathia walks along the battle on the decks, in amognst the two crews, helping an elven crew member here and there, looking for her chance. Finally she spots it, an unattened rope from the Merchant, no one was left near it, as the battle had pressed to the other side of the ship. Dropiing her bow and arrows, she slowly begins to climb along the rope, and onto the Merchant. A lone dwarven crew member, left on the Merchant, spots her and tries to attack her, but she parries his attack, and hits him in the temple, and forces over the edge into the water between the ship. Removing her hood, and letting her hair fall to her wait, she looks at the battle on the ship, before ducking down into the belly of the Merchant.

Konstantin notices something unusual about Dekard and slowly gets up, picking up his daggers. His kneels over the pirate, who is sobbing and gently rolling around to seize the waives of pain.
Konstantin puts his knee on the pirate's throat.
-Listen to me. You are too weak to even try to attack me. You are too irrelevant to even try and call me cocky. I have been places you cannot imagine in your sickest dreams. I am a tyrant with a strong will, while you are weak slave of your own emptiness, and yet you may survive if you do as I say.
The wound is heavy, the blood is almost black... not good. - K shakes his head.
-This means that the bolt had hit your liver. If you lay around like this, you will die in ten minutes. If you take the bolt out, you will probably die in five minutes. The pain will not be gone though.
I have an antidote, that can still remedy the poison. After that, your wound will be able to heal with time, and you will live.
Konstantin shows him a small bottle.
-Want this? Then get up, pick up your sword, and go to your captain. Tell him to surrender at once, and give us the people we are looking for. Tell your captain to give up. Not retreat, but give up. He will be killed, but you still may save some of your crew members. Tell him to end the fight NOW.
So? Do we agree ot shall I rather do this?
Konstantin puts a dagger close to Dekard's throat.

Captain Houk watched as the Elven woman Moathia Made her way over to the ship. She climbed a thick rope then swung in true pirate fashion to land aboard the Merchant. Captain Houk threw one of his sword in a fit of rage, her dispatching of the last crewman on deck all about topping of his temper. The human captain watched as she drew back her hood and made through an open door. ‘If you want anything done these days,’ he snorted, ‘ you have to do it your self.’ With that he hoped from the rail and bounded down the stairs to the deck. Stopping he looked across to the group of shining ones. ‘Come on then if you think you’re hard enough!’ he shouted over, his face flushed red, his eyes blood shot with anger.
Though the last crewman had been slain on the Merchant there were more than just Moathia and Houk aboard. Down in the bowels the ship still in his cabin was a man. A man prone to the temptation of taking things that are not offered to him. A man who had paid a visit to Troll's Bane and had succumb to this very temptation. Not long after the woman had taken her own life. This was the man they sought to pay for his crimes
The Pirate Dekard looked up through wincing blurry eyes at Konstantin K. His hand held so tightly around the wound his knuckles were pale white against the dark blood. Though most of his words were warped and half heard through the haze of pain and humiliation, he made out the gist of what was being said. Antidote for the poison that was seeping through his burning veins. It sounded good, though a bolt through the liver, the very wound alone would kill him if not gangrene would. Dekard spoke, his face paling now and clammy. ‘The man you want. I care for him not. He is not … one of us, he is a bastard and a…. a cheat. You will find him probably hiding on the Merchant.’ Why should he die and his fellows whilst that stinking rat stay safe below deck. The pirate hoped the man would get what was coming to him. With that he hawked and spat at Konstantin K, before turning his head away curling up his body with the pain

White cloak billowing behind him caught on the sea winds, Aristeaus watches as a giant of a man, cleary well over 6ft start to make he's away across the Merchant's deck. Stopping short of the ships railing's the brute bellow's out in defience.
‘Come on then if you think you’re hard enough!’
Arist looks into the man's bloodshot eye's and see's the madness within.
'Shall i take that as an invitation?'
Aristeaus raises the rune encrusted blade from he's side and dip's he's head in a mock salute.

As Moathia went in search for the man they sought below deck, Houk was out in the salty sea air, his chest expanding for the deep breathes he took trying to keep his anger from boiling over. Here he stood mid deck, the only fighting man aboard his own ship facing the shining ones. He had shouted a challenge to them, and to his amusement only one had had the balls to accept. ‘Take it any way you like land lover,’ he shouted over din of fighting to Aristeaus. ‘I tell you this, you will be taking my blade in you.’ He stood his ground rapier in hand, his second lost for being throw in his temper awaiting the swords man and any others that would dare challenge him. ‘Come on, you squids I’ll take you all on!’ he roared defiantly, the ash and embers form the last quarters of the burning sails fall around him.
Athian draws up his bow, aiming directly at the man.
"Hold it there. you've caused us to much trouble to be killed by Arist. but don't think i'll hestiate a second, it's beeter to capture this one i think."
He keeps his eye steady. even as the people on the other boat continue to battle, but he thinks to himself how glad he is that it all coming to an end.
((people keep putting me places. um just rp my char for the rest of this unless i return))

Captain Houk looked to Athian, his eyes narrowed in anger at the mans audacity to threaten him, even more so with a bow. ‘Fight me with a blade like a man,’ he roared his voice breaking in anger. With that the broad shoulder captain turned his attention back to Aristeaus, the man now almost in fighting distance. ‘Now this, this is man of calibre.’ Be bellowed pointing his sword as Aristeaus. ‘Not like the rest of you damp squids…. Come on sonny let go.’ His empty hand came up fingers waving the swords man on.
Carahawen who was standing near Arist had overheard every word of Captain Houk and now follows Athians example and grabs a rope.
"Damp squids? Let's hope for him that he didn't mean me. We'll see who
takes whose blade into...."
She swings over and lands on deck of the Great Merchant next to Athian, her eyes fixed on the captain and ready to fight.

Konstantin feels the pirate's spit on his cheek. He doesn't wipe it out, but rather breethes in its sour smell.
He looks again at Dekard and sees that pain is growing worse for him. Konstantin tested his own poison on himself, he knows what it was like.
Without a word he puts the silverdagger's blade to Dekard's neck and slices it. Dekard's eyes close for the last time. Only now Konstantin wipes his face and wipes the hand on Dekard's pants.
He puts his attention to Aristeaus, Carahawen, and Athian. He quickly graps what's going on. He witnesses Captain Houk asking for a fair fight.
-Not happening while I am here.
Konstantin stands up on the SwiftWind's railing, and with all his trength he throws the SilverDagger aiming into Houk's head. The SilverDagger's blade, enchanted by Athian's spell, glows with colors of the elements: Fire, Ice, Poison, Darkness. The enchanted blade spins around, cutting through the air, as it flies with enormous speed towards Houk.
Without much delay Konstantin throws the second SilverDagger, aiming at Captain's chest. The second dagger flies off like a fiery missle, the blade gets hotter as it flies, leaving a cloud of smoke as its track.
-Hmm... Athian didn't lie... the enchantment really does work...

((sorry ppl couldnt get on yesterday))
Salathe sees his friends now on the other ship, he still doesnt see Ayalla. He decides to go over to the Great Merchant, but he had left his halberd in that dwarves stomach. He runs and snatches the halberd, not losing his pace, and jump to the rail and leaps from Swiftwind to the great Merchant. He looks back hoping Ayalla will be safe, then he goes to where all his friends are as he catches a glance of the two glowing daggers. One Flies into the Mizzenmast, tearing through it violently, shards of wood fly through the air as the dagger tumbles about the deck. The other dagger dagger tears through the wheel, then it falls onto the deck, with steam rising from it. The Mizzenmast begins to creak as it slowly tilts.
((lets let Ayalla get some action before we finish this))

Captain Houk growled his teeth clenched as the lizard Salathe came aboard. Out numbered yes but out classed no. Houk was a canny fighter and surprisingly quick for his broad chested size, his height making him the tallest of the group. Another of the shining had dared to test her skill against him, the warrior Carahawen. Question was, would the fairy footed Athian be coward enough to use that crossbow of his. ‘Bah, to Cherga with him’ was Houks thought. Just as a glowing light whizzed past his face with a metallic whine ‘thunking’ heavily with a small burst of blue sparks into the Mizzenmast. It groaned in agony and leaned in keeping with the cut of the wood. Then in a burst of splinters the mast cracked and topped toward deck crashing from mast to bow along the Merchant. Ash, embers and splinters billowed about the deck and around the fighters.
Houk already ducking took the opportunity of the now off guard shinning. He surged forward toward the ducking Athian, sword sweeping out and slicing across the crossbow, spinning on his heels he lashed out a kick at the Elf Carahawen. Wasting no time to see if his bold move had indeed knocked her down he bolted for Aristeaus, the only one of the close combatants to have retained his composure. His sword swept up and across in a murderous disembowelling move.
Mean while Ayalla still below deck and with out her cat made her way toward a door. Behind it the Elven pirate Willyan awaited, his sword arm aching now for the wait as he held it up high. It began to tremble slightly from the exursion, the metal tip tapping on the wood.

Aristeaus spin's on the top of he's feet, cloaking streaming around he's body, raiseing he's blade he manage's block Houk's murdereous attack.
the sound of steel clashing echo's through the air, using all he's strength Aristeaus manage's to force Houk's blade back, giving himself enough time to disengage he's blade and get into he's fighting stance.

-Stop now!! Drop your weapon! - Konstantin shouts to Captain Houk from the maste of the SwiftWind. His hooded figure stands on it, and holds his crossbow in his hands. His voice makes Houk pause for a moment and listen.
-You see that fallen Mizzenmast? That was my dagger. Now you are about to meet my crossbow. It's loaded with slow action poison bolts and it's pointed straight in your head. The poison will paralyze your body completely, and make you spit your stomach out on the fifth minute. Six minutes after the bolt is in your body, your skin will begin to boil, as your body temperature will slowly rise, until it reaches critical vital limit. Not mentioning the enormous pain effect around the wound. One bolt is enough. I have several dozens of bolts with me, and I handle my weapon without missing.
Konstantin looks up and down quickly, making sure no one is approaching him from behind, and he aims with his crossbow again.
-Make another move towards my companions, and you will die! Surrender now! Give up yourself, and order your crew to surrender!!! NOW!!! And yes, damn straight, I am a coward enough to use this crossbow and not fight you like a man, and you will find that out if you don't give up.
You have lost, captain! We are professionals! Surrender now!
