Does anyone have the foggiest idea how many Easterlings are still left alive to stagger off the field of battle? If no one answers this, I'll try to count noses tomorrow. But, if someone knows, that would be very helpful.
Firstly: you are welcome!

The tally might be 13 dead easterlings... I'm not absolutely sure, but with a quick glance that seems right. But as we have never indicated the exact number of the easterlings to begin with, I guess you might come up with any decent looking number (Calimehtar + 2,3,4?).

And how about Vaenosa's arrow? Did it miss or hit (and if hit, then whom?)?

PS. I'm a bit unsure, whether I should have explained Sythric's last move more openly in the thread. He changes the lance to the knife, because Calimehtar backed among the oaks - and it's hard to use a long lance in between the trees - and because he was afraid of the collision, as he was quite weak already... Should I add a sentence or two there to spell this out?
