Rayth and the Loreesi lancer had been hot in pursuit of one of the Queen's soldiers for several miles. They were just catching up to him when Rayth came skidding to a stop and put a hand out to keep the Loreesi from going any further.
"We've almost got him!! What are you doing?!" The Loreesi yelled in frustration.
"Shh, you sand-spitting fool! Listen..."
The sharp sound of cracking ice was suddenly heard through the crisp arctic air. A moment later, the Queen's man dropped out of sight with a splash!
Carefully, Rayth and the Loreesi approached the hole in the ice, the Dragon knight spluttering and splashing, struggling to climb his way out of the near-freezing water.
The Loreesi raised his spear to finish the job, but again, Rayth stopped him.
"Leave him be."
"What?? We chased him all this way an you're going to let him go??"
"This thug doesn't deserve the mercy of a quick death. Even if he gets out, night is about to fall. The temperatures will drop and he'll be frozen within the hour."
The eerie howl of a lone direwolf suddenly echoed from the distance. The Loreesi shuddered in terror.
"Fair enough, let's get out of here!"
The two men turned their back on the doomed soldier, leaving him to perish in his icy grave.

I will add both to the main post.

That's ok, Ronin. I like it when people say why they voted a certain way. It's good feedback for both competitors.

Thanks, it realy was tight ...
