The three younger rangers (and a few of the orcs) stare at Spoon as he screeches.
"Wow," Says one of Sallyn's friends in Sindarian, "He was really attached to that cow, wasn't he?" Sallyn nods in dumb agreement, then decapitates an orc that was going to take advantage of their distraction to gut them. The fight resumes with renewed fury, the cow getting trampled underfoot, along with the dead orcs.
The ranks of orcs are rapidly thinning, seeing as many were caught only lightly armed, and it is a younger bunch than some of the rougher gangs higher in the mountains.
There's a scream from the knot of young men, and one of Sallyn's friends falls back, clutching at his shoulder. His companions shove him between them and fight on, calling for help at the top of their lungs. Glorfindel immediately checks and turns, cutting his way towards them through the intervening orcs.
