Lacking the grace of Amos, yet matching the sharp wit, Samuel succesfully dove underneath the swing of the giant mace. Following the creatures recovery, Samuel sprinted forwards clutching his own stocky silver sword, and clambered up the creatures foot as it turned. Perched atop the Giakdon's foot, Samuel drove his blade straight down, earning a little bloodshed and an impressive tremor.

When the blade struck the calf of the Giakdon, there seemed to be some sort of burning on its leg, but it was quite minor and didn't seem to bother it in the least. When the sword was driven into its foot, however, it gave an unearthly cry and lifted its leg up with surprising speed, likely sending Samuel over into the mud nearby. With a grumble, it brought its axe down upon the battlements. Two men fell to the ground below and chunks of stone toppled down. It ignored Amos for the time being.

The great Giakdon suddenly turned toward the hills and grunted, as if it were being distracted. Without a warning the hefty beast headed toward the hill in the direction Daes vanished, dragging its massive axe behind, grinding against the stony ground.
Amos was puzzled by the Giakdon's sudden and unexpected move, but was grateful. He ordered all the soldiers back into the wall to recuperate and repair.
"Well, done Rock, you didn't do too badly." He said as he lay a hand on his pauldron. "Looks like Nikina's on our side today as the Giakdon seemed to have lost interest."

Samuel couldn't find words, as exhaustion and battle shock had taken their toll. Nodding with thanks at Amos' words, he made his way back to the (relative) safety of the wall, glancing around at the hills and rocky outcroppings in paranoia of another attack.
It wasn't until he was inside the wall and out of Amos' sight that he granted himself a small -albeit loud- victory celebration. Samuel was cut short by some of the other guardsmen hurling their boots at him however.
