The incapacitated foe gives one last bloody splutter as Anwyn leans sharply on her dagger, grinding it down through ringed mail and the gristle of the creature's breast, then cuts loose her stained arrow from its ruined throat. In all, a nasty and messy business.
Meanwhile Caine is satisfied that all of his many blades are securely in place, and Ulric feeds and then ignites his hooded lantern. When the yellow flame sputters to life, you finally have a reasonable light by which to see about you on the dark, blustery heathland.
When, at last, Victor is recovered enough (1d6=3) to move on, everybody is packed and anxious to go. Ulric leads the way with his lantern, heading in the direction by which Rodrick departed some quarter hour earlier -- more or less easterly.
Victor now has 8 (of 11) hit-points.
