One of the bolts of force hits his square in the chest but he's ready for it. It hurts, knocking him a step back, but he knows that he couldn't have avoided it if he tried. The other gets caught in the portal as it closes, causing the energy to spread outward into the door frame itself.
Zak is already spinning around into another attack when the portal winks out, and his sword sails through empty air as the invading warrior drops to the floor in shock. The other drow stares up wide-eyed at him, terrified. Zak has to cover his mouth at the sight, the warrior having been cut clean in half from one shoulder to the opposite hip, the massive wound burned closed.
But he's still alive.
He would be the first to admit that he revels in killing drow, telling himself that they might be able to find peace in death, that they might finally be free of the torment of their lives. This, though... Zak drops one of his swords to the floor and pulls a dagger as he kneels next to the fallen drow.
"Sleep now.." He murmurs softly, sliding the dagger into the vertebrae of the other drow's neck, making it quick and painless.
