There seemed to be less of the dark elves left as the time went on this wasn't looking good. Rhyldrin may have killed his own kind before but about this time the back up was nice to have. Sinking his blade into yet another light elf and pulling it back he spotted the red haired commander of this group. 'shit.. with this many why bother coming to the front lines' he hissed in his thoughts before backing away.
He didn't have the energy to keep up in a fight against anyone with half decent skills. He needed to avoid the commander at all costs that was certain. Though his thoughts of retreating were disrupted as a light up came up behind him and nearly landed a good hit to his neck. Though he manged to notice and move or at least avoid most of the blade as he spun and slammed his weapon into it. Though the light elf did manage to nick his shoulder a bit in the process.
This bold solider was rewarded as Rhyldrin moved his other blade across his stomach and let him fall to the ground, he'd bleed out soon enough. "tsk.. I'm going to end up getting killed if I stick around here.. " He sighed under his breath tough it was from a lack of energy instead of his normal annoyed sigh. The few dark elves that were left were keeping the light elves plenty busy minus a few that seemed to target Rhyldrin.. though none of them lasted more then a few seconds or past getting one strike off.
After slaying a few more of the light elves brave or dumb enough to come after him he finally managed to slip away from the fighting. Breathing heavily he kept from running, it would only wear him out faster and in the case he was seen leaving the battle he didn't want to be without any strength to fight. 'he was right there ... damn it' He hissed at himself in his mind knowing he wanted nothing more then to get revenge on that red haired elf for the wound from his child hood.
He walked for a while before he even noticed the wound on his shoulder as he put his hand over it to try and quell the bleeding a little. He'd have to deal with it later, stopping now to take care of it would be foolish. He was pretty sure he was headed in the right direction at least.. it'd take most of the night at this rate.. well and most of the day but he could make it to a sort of safe grounds then deal with the wound. He was lucky that a few scratches and that one gash was all he ended that miniature war with.
His ears twitched as he heard something near by. Pulling his hand from his shoulder he quickly had both blades in his hands and seemed more then ready to strike at whatever was near by. Standing there a moment he heard a slight noise again though whatever it was seemed to be trying to avoid being detected. This was still close to the light elf camp.. but it should have been far enough to not have any of the troops at least from the battle.
Keeping his weapons in hand he waited and stalked the slight movements he kept hearing from time to time till he narrowed down the area they were in. By this time he could hear the sound of someone breathing though it seemed slightly labored or at least out of breath.. Maybe it was a wounded light elf after all though he wouldn't have guessed what one it was.
He started to take the advantage on the unknowing light elf but stopped short a few feet from his strike. "Judith?" He questioned her, that wasn't what he was expecting by any means. Though he did quickly notice there was a dark elf corpse near by and that she seemed to be bleeding. He sighed a little putting the blades away, at the least this wasn't going to lead into a fight.. or he hoped not. "Your a mess.. " He finally said looking her over, there seemed to be blood all over her hand that was on her stomach and a bit on her face, he guessed from the dark elf where his neck was slashed.
He wasn't sure if approaching her was a good idea at the moment, not if she was still in a fight or flight mind set.. Waiting a few minutes he held both hands up for a second before walking over to her. "what the hell are you even doing all the way out here? The battles that way ya know?" He made a lazy gesture towards the direction he had came from in the first place though he knew she didn't want to be apart of that mess.. But it was odd she was all the way out here almost in the middle of no where let alone from the looks of it she was leaving the camp site.
"you don't have to answer that, but that wound needs attention either way" Going off the amount of blood it didn't seem that bad.. but it could cause her to become light headed if she was planning to let it go till the blood clotted to close it. Aside from that it would be hard for it to heal if it wasn't closed properly anyway, though he didn't see her accepting his help that easily.. thus why he never offered in the first place but instead made the suggestion.
