Savage enhances his pace and moves closer, sending his pet off to fight, and the little bastard draws blood.
Unfortunately, the warrior it attacked attacks back, swinging it's crude battleaxe over one-handed in a wide arch, cutting deep into the floorboards less than an inch from the little lizard.
Suddenly there is a loud cracking sound at the front door, indicating that someone is using a battering ram to make their way in, though they don't seem to manage to break through with all of the bits of furniture and junk in the way just beyond the door itself.
Upstairs, another cloacked warrior leaps over the wall of the lighthouse, landing near the catapult. She drops her climbing tools, and draws an axe.

If in striking distance Ramesses will draw his curve blade move up and gracefully strike at the foe in an upward arcing motion. "Gorum give me strength!!!" possible crit.

Already having the power of a bull, the protection of his faith, and the multitude of his personas from different times, Rravn takes a stronger grip from his sword and once again readies himself for the upcoming battle. A few divine words and it's as if the gods themselves look favorably on the abnormal tengu.
His eyes turn from gold to red, and his grin turns into a twisted menace. "Do I have to open the door for you? Are you shaking with fear already? You're all meek, unworthy for the battle! I can hear the rattle of your bones!" Rravn taunts, finishing his speech wish a maniacal laughter.

Savage will move toward the front door and cast entangle making the first square in the door the edge of the spell so it wont entangle friendlies.
"here my friend let me hold them for you"
Storm tooth will full atk the man in window

Able to hit with ease, Falow sends an arrow flying, catching the warrior directly in the throat, and sending a spray of blood out all over what remains of the window behind him while Stormtooth unleashes a mad fury of tiny claws and teeth, finally sending the warrior dead tot the floor without so much as a scream.
Once again, someone outside tries to break their way in, slamming something hard against the door, in hopes of battering their way in, and allowing the rest of the army outside to swarm inside. Fortunately, they seem to be the most inept beings in the universe at this relatively simple task, and your reinforcements are not helping.
Upstairs, Ramesses and Todric move into engage the the would be assassin that had climbed the Lighthouse tower, leaving a large gash across her chest, but it's not enough to take her out just yet. Grabbing her axe with both hands, heaves it around in a fashion more akin to swinging a club, but with luck manages to catch him square in the shoulder, cutting deep, though not so much as to remove the limb, or even hinder it's usage much.

Ramesses sees the axe coming his way and attempts to block with the buckler, but is just slightly too slow and gets caught in the shoulder. "Aaahh, you do have a little bite in you!" He grins as he fluently turns his block attempt into another swing this time straight across at her hip.

The woman returns in broken Common "Yes, Outsider. We bite 'ard, and we zall drive you like mongrel dogz before . . . arg!!!! I see zat even mongrel dogs can occasionally bite as well." as she begins to bleed profusely from a second jagged cut a little too closer to her vitals.

Seeing Ramesses dispatch the intruder, he throws the half-elf a jaunty salute and heads back for the stairs.

It takes a few more solid tries before the remaining conscripted soldiers manage to break through, but not long after they do charge in, they are cut down with ease.
Outside, you can hear their leader shouting commands, or perhaps curses, and catch a glimpse of the army arrayed against you. There are some 30 or more individuals out there, broken up into small squads that make it very difficult to toss out a few well places spells and end this quickly. It also seems that the invaders are acting rather tactically, sending in their most expendable troops in to test the structure's defenses before advancing further.
Something bugs you in the full 3 minutes it takes before the next assault begins. Something you can't place your thumb on, almost until it's too late.
Suddenly something slams into the section of wall right next to the broken door, and then explodes in a small inferno of flame. Then another one. It's not close enough to harm anyone directly, but gives you a clue as to what to expect next.

Ramesses will lobby an Alchemist fire at the climbers. "The guys at the door were just a distraction. They're climbing up the cliffs!!!" He says in a suprised tone.

Suddenly Ramesses rushes to the window, and without a word begins throwing a few random bits of wood down the cliff side. Finally, he grabs an vial, hurling it down as well, just before the home is bombarded with explosives from outside.
Ramesses' vial catches one of the climbers in the face, exploding and burning him and forcing him to loose his grasp. But as the flaming man falls, he slammed into another of the climbers below him, sending both to their dooms, and only two more making their way up the cliff, only perhaps 15ft away.

Jorah stays near the front door as well, still mumbling nonsense and yelling obscenities.

As Ramesses rushes upstairs, Rravn and Jorah step into position and await the enemy to finally show their face. It doesn't take long, as suddenly one man approaches the front door and hurls a small bomb into the room. Just after that, two more manage to climb in through the two rear windows, quickly grabbing a few vials, mixing them together, and then hurling the concoctions into the party.
As this barrage of flaming death hits, a lot of the furniture and finery inside begin to catch fire. It's not a threat at the moment, but could quickly become one, especially as you plan on holding up inside to by time for your Venture-captain.

With a quick shout Todric rushes at the man directly in front of him and tries a stab with his rapier.

Rravn steps forward to engage, slashing down the man's shoulder and leaving a small open wound, and right behind him, Jorah sends a bolt flying, but Rravn's swing is timed just s that his mighty Taldan blade accidentally deflects it from the intended target.
Ramseses rushes upstairs, nearly making it to his intended target, as Savage and Storm Tooth close in on another of the bombers. Savage plunges his sear into the mans side, while Storm Tooth attempts to nip at his lower extremities, but just can't seem to latch on, followed up by a solid arrow from the hidden Falom.
In the next room, Todric rushes the enemy, stabbing deep into the man's gut, but only barely missing the vitals within.
Around, you, the building is slowly starting to catch fire, and filling with a slow mixture of both the fog from outside as well as a bit of smoke. It's not yet enough to obscure vision inside, but it could quickly become so.
As the bombers inside begin to retaliate, the one at the front door hurls another bomb, aimed at Jorah, catching him directly in the chest, but when it explodes, it's not enough to also get Rravn this time.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not liking being cornered, the other two move away from much close combat, taking the retaliating attacks from Todric as they try to slide by his watchful eye.
and finally, the last one, able to avoid taking any hits, removes himself from direct threats and hurls another bomb, catching both Storm Tooth (direct) and Savage (splash), in it's blast.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Suddenly, flying through one of the windows, you spot a small little bird, native to these parts. It lands on one of the overturned chairs, and begins to shake, drying itself off from the rain outside, then looking at you questioningly.
