Their aim true, perhaps out of indignation at the taunts of the imps, the party would opt to fill one in particular with a knife and two bolts…yet seem to make little progress as the imp’s flesh regrew despite becoming more of a flying pincushion than a creature.
“Kekekeke! So weak, so puny! Low level adventurers are such easy prey!”
…Besides incite more demonic laugh of course as another barrage of pitchforks rained down upon the party.

…A barrage which is mostly weathered by the party as they do their best to ignore the pricks of the pitchforks, but once some of the imps got the bright idea to throw the knife and crossbow bolts back instead at the “squishy one”, Raven would find himself struck in a much more deadly manner as one bolt pierces ever so close to his heart, much to the glee of the demonic servants turned rogue, who quickly began to descend to swarm their “wounded prey”.
“Kehehehe! Look! The squishy one is about to fall over! LOOT HIM!!”
…Yet as the situation began to look dire, and the imps were about to descend upon poor Raven with their stingers ready…it would be then that the first of their number would be tackled by what seem to be a…
Palm sized dragon? One…then two…then four...then six, a flock of them would dive towards the malevolent imps and began tearing at them tooth and claw, leaving shimmering wounds with each strike that the devils seemed to be unable to recover from.
”Begone you infernal demons! You shall not terrorize the innocent!
”That’s devils idiot!”
Grappling with the imps, the tangling “pseudodragons” and the imps would begin to ascend further and further into the sky during their fight…until they were all but out of sight. As the carcass of an imp falls down below, it seemed clear who had the upper hand in that fight… But as to the condition of Raven who was struggling to maintain consciousness…
((Raven takes 7 damage in total from the barrage by the imps, while Ankieseth takes 1 damage from a light scratch from a wayward pitchfork. The party gains 100 exp each, the same as for a CR 2 encounter, for surviving the imp onslaught.))
