Buff The Tank

Tessa tossed the weapons into the pouches that were built into the harness Thor was wearing, left over from their last battle and equipped by him when he left his space, so his knight would have a saddle.

Then the group retreated to their original positions after Hawk grabbed the last Royal Rank Hill Giant into his space for safekeeping. He didn't really want it, they tasted awful, but the warriors had already looted it, so there was no point in letting the Giants recover the bodies of their leaders.

For half an hour, they waited while the survivors of the Hill Giant attack retreated, taking their wounded and most of their dead with them.

That was something that the Frost Giants didn't do, and Karl wondered if there were Hill Giant Clerics who could resurrect their fallen. 

He hadn't seen any sign of them in combat, but they might be somewhere in the back, as anything beyond the front lines was their undisputed territory.
