He dismounts and takes cover. Jack slips off his mount and likewise, takes cover behind a tree. His shot goes wide.Casparan slips from his horse. For a moment it looks like he is going to charge in. But seeing his companions taking cover, he does so as well. A short blade appears in his hand.From north of the where the travellers shelter, another three small creatures and one large one rise up out of the undergrowth*.All three of the larger creatures crash through the undergrowth towards the three travellers. Fifteen feet to twenty feet away they pause to hurl their second javlins. One gouges a great chunk out of the tree behind which Bendyn shelters. The other scrapes across Casparan's shield. The tall warriors seem to be getting their eye in.The small ones unloose another shower of crossbow bolts, but they either pass harmlessly by or thump into the trunks of the trees or clatter off armour. Their task is not made any easier by the two larger creatures charging into battle.End Round 1ooc: These are the one north of the road. There were hiding, but I forgot that I had put them on the map.</blockquote>
