• Azazel steps in between the hobgoblins and his wounded followers. He strikes at the southern male but misses.
• Moving up and flanking the western male, Hunulf stabs him directly in the square of the back. The spear penetrates his rib cage and slightly punctures his lung, dealing 8 points. Ibba swings but misses. Whilst not outright killing the beast, Hunulf has dealt it a massive blow that shakes the brutes' confidence.

Round 9a – The fire of the faithful

• Azazel yells to Goar to pull Frideric clear of the combat zone and as he does Azazel steps back five feet and calls upon the wrath of Asmodeus and casts "Burning Hands" upon the two hobgoblin males. Both hobgoblins save taking 1 and 2 points respectively but they are shaken.
Round 9b – Azazel falls!!!
• Shocked, the eastern hobgoblin advances on Azazel to finish him off, striking him in the stomach for 5 points and dropping him.
• The other big male advances on Ibba and Hunulf, prompting attacks of opportunity. Hunulf hits the big male to the left shoulder, dealing 4 points of damage and dropping the monster.

Round 10a – The last male Hobgoblin falls

Round 10b – Last female archer fires
• The female fires another arrow and hit Hunulf again. Striking up her 7th hit for the engagement she does 3 points.
The rest of the battle – A pyric victory for the faithful
Over the next few rounds Ibba and Hunulf attack and kill the remaining female hobgoblin whilst Goar attempts to stop the bleeding on the most critically injured Harti.
Once they kill the female, Ibba and Hunulf run over to provide an assist to Goar. He is eventually able to stabilise Harti but they cannot stabilise Odoin in time and he bleeds out and dies.
Looking over to the far corner they see the one remaining female hobgoblin who is cowering behind a corner protecting the young. With one party member barely able to move, another heavily wounded and four others unconscious they decide to disengage.
