The Deepkin noble was searching the ruins along with his retinue of eel riding guards, with a shark floating over head keeping look out. They had no idea they were being watched. 

“This is almost to easy.” whispered Kwark to second

“Ya boss man, I’m surprised they took the bait, passing the word that a magical tome was buried in the ruins was a brilliant Gork like move boss.” whispered back Gorfang, Kwarks second in command and standard bearer.

“I know!” Kwark says while standing to full height. “Now you lazy gitz NOW!”

From the tree line near the by dozens of bolts the size of grots peppered the sky shark till it careened into the ruins nearby kill it and the crew on top. The Noble races to his dreadmire and yells orders to the guard has they call for the their eels over to ride. Gutrippaz come running out the woods and form a crude shield wall of poison tip spears in prep for the impact from the eel riders. The eels pick up speed drawing closer to the Gutrippaz, and a toothy smirk forms on Kwarks face. The eels Approach a pile of ruins and then the ruins explode with spears shooting out and skewering a rider and mount to a near by tree. Looking satisfied that the spear trap worked Gorfang waves the Banner of Kragnos and at that moment the bolt boys hidden in the tree line come marching out shotting bolts at the eels just has the eels get to the shield wall dropping two more into the dirt.

“Finish them off but I want that one alive!” Kwark yells while pointing at the noble joining the combat. 

Gutrippaz start closing in on the noble has the last of the eel riders fall, stepping over dead aelf and ourrk alike the gutrippaz encircle the noble aelf who then tries the make a escape upwards. But Kwark had expected this and had the bolt boys ready with orders to only kill the dreadmire. Has the dreadmire cleared the circle a hail of bolts pepper it killing the mount and throwing the noble to the ground. Hobgrots rush foward with a giant net made from arachnarok silk, the noble struggles against the net to no avail. Several hobgrots rush forward on to the net with clubs stiking the noble out and getting a few extra hits in just cause they can.

Kwark yells at the group of hobgrots while shoving his way through the gutrippas rummaging through the dead for items ” If you gits kill him ill feed the whole lot of ya to Scylla” and with that the grots scatter none want to meet their demise to his pet arachnarok.

“Well, well what will this one bring in” Kwark says while picking up the limp aelf and biting a piece of meat torn from the dreadmire. “Gather the eels and riders for the boys to eat but the dreadmire is good meat so that mine take it to my hut and butcher it up right like i like” he barks and the few hobgrots still near by.

With this ambush complete Kwark is sure that this war Mogrek has started will be a profitable one for Da Company.
