Orilo coolly stares back at Anborn... but doesn't say anything. It could be that Anborn's words resonated with him. It could even be they meant no more to him than a fart in the wind. Either way, if looks could kill, Anborn would feel the gnaw of death either looking back or at his back as attention turns back to the vampire. But only for a few moments. As he turned to finally look upon the Sunsword -- now little more than an elegant hilt on the ground -- the compulsion to take it came back to him.
A grim smile plays at his lips. But just as he begun to kneel, the sword is gone in matter of seconds. "No... No...." He spins around, and in seeing Winter with the blade lets out an unearthly bellow that sounded akin to one great big, "NOOOOOooo!" What as a march after her comes to a swift end remembering Anborn, and the implied promise of his words. "You should have handed it over, thieving cleric." Orilo waits not for another caustic remark before delivering the axe into Anborn's shoulder, aiming to maim, if not incapacitate the stalwart cleric with life siphoning corruption. As darkness begins to consume Anborn's vision, what may be the last words he hears from Orilo is a, "Pray your... mate sees reason, Cleric... For both your..."
The rest dies in his throat as moments later the goliath is clutching his chest as if his heart had just exploded. "No... not now... not fin-..."He falls, potentially collapsing next to Anborn in his final moments of consciousness.
1st Blood Bane(Maxed) Attack: 78 Damage: 62 plus 8 Necrotic Damage on Anborn. 2nd Blood Bane Attack: 20 Damage: 7 plus 8 Necrotic Damage on Corrin.
Bonus Action:Compelled Duel(DC 14 Wis Save) on Winter.(if possible. If not, ignore.)
Glancing around, Elya's eyes go wide as she sees Orilo and Anborn both on the ground, Orilo's axe dripping with blood and Anborn bearing a gruesome wound. As Strahd's influence takes hold of Corrin as well, she begins to panic, breathing faster and faster as saltwater sweat drips down the sides of her face. Noticing a healing potion on Anborn's belt, she dives for it and pours it down his throat, before running towards Strahd as lightning crackles around her.
"Come on... I can't do this again god dammit. Get up, get up and fight."
"Strahd, I swear by the sea and by everything else that I've left behind, I will put an end to your miserable existence if it is the last thing that I do."
“The peace of Barovia must come first,” Corrin mutters absent-mindedly. “Elya! Think of the children! Without their glorious leader, chaos would reign. That simply will not do!” The halfling turns, giving a broad smile and wink at Strahd, “Lady Luck, protect my friend!” A sea of giggles erupts as numerous ethereal, laughing sprites pop up, engulfing Corrin, Strahd and Elya. His smile fading and a dark look coming over his face, Corrin glares at Elya and screams, “Bonk!”

What am I going to do? Are you running again? You pride yourself in being a successful bounty hunter yet you're running away? I can't do this by myself. They're going to all die.You're going to die. Just leave. Stay and fight.Go! Stop trying to be a hero! Stop it, turn back!Fight!Flee! Why did you come in the first place?! We weren't ready. Why can't you just all just "SHUT UP!"
She hadn't realized the moment she fully shifted until she screamed, stopping in her tracks in some area she barely knew. The now slick black fur covered rogue looked behind her, her now feline ears at the top of her head twitching in irritation. It didn't sound like she was being followed. Did Orilio go down? No, he wouldn't go down that easy. But the axe... Did he strike Anborn with it? What about Corrin and Elya? What of their fates? Winter looked back forward. Strahd wouldn't let her leave with the sword this easily.The front door was some feet away... But knowing the others they would agree to refrain from being a hero and leave...
So she ran straight for the exit.

You make it to the entrance. To your horror, the main doors are firmly shut.
You hear a terrible growl, and you look up. The four dragon statues from the main entrance are now alive. The red dragon wyrmlings begin to descend and make their way towards you.
Winter stares at the camera like she’s on the office.

Corrin, you hear Strahd speak to you. You are filled with powerful emotions of friendship and brotherhood.
"My friend!" he says, "It would be a shame if I perished, who would rule the people of Barovia? Protect me!"
From this point on, you must do your best to make sure no harm comes to Strahd, your best friend. This means healing him when he gets hurt.
