(For obvious reasons, Blade cannot wipe the pie away...he might hurt himself.) No wonder Mother needs me to slay Meshtak, he thinks to himself. The child himself appears helpless, but he has many powerful friends. Having reminded himself of his mission, Blade staggers toward where he last saw the child, intending to initiate a fatal belly-flop upon the poor child. However, Meshtak is quicker! The Draga quickly side-steps Blade, and runs ahead of him, scooping Mechatack up in his arms. (The child is too scared to resist.) Meshtak then takes off, thinking to put the child in a safe place and then return to the battle. However, in this case, Mother gave Blade something extra...a mental psionic tracker that allows him to know where in general Meshtak is at any given time. With this tracker, he needs not use his eyes. And Blade senses Meshtak taking off. He moves to follow. As Meshtak runs, Thrawm appears beside him, also running. "Hey! I got this great pit in my bar where you can hide!" offers the half-troll. Meshtak growls, transforms his shift-sword into a blade, and chops the troll in half, not slowing down for the action. Trawm sits and grumbles as his body heals. "It was only an offer..." mutters the half-troll. -- "You can't help that.
