"That's what I was hoping for."Keeping her eyes on the Dhax, she turns to her companions. "Flight was not what I had in mind - as Moon's Brand noted, the survivors would continue to hunt us." She nods at the young Kai. "Take care of Silver Wind, he seems sorely wounded. We have to use the short respite to recover strength and prepare to do battle - on our terms."Jesabela hesitates for a moment and looks at Silver Wind. Naar's foul armpit, he's probably not much older than Moon's Brand. Just let him have the damn weed if it helps him. You can always steal a Laumspur potion somewhere, anyway. She digs out the Laumspur leaves from her backpack and thrusts them at Moon's Brand. "Here, use these if they help fast enough. Hoagar and I will give you two cover."Afterwards, assuming nothing went unexpectedly:Jesabela throws Silver Wind a look to see if he's ready for combat. Then she says: "Okay, let's get into position."Should there be some cover around, Jesabela will suggest that she and one of the others hide behind that, each holding one end of a rope that can be stretched across the path of the probably charging Dhax, thereby hopefully tripping them. If so, the rope will be lying on the ground until the Dhax are/is close enough, while the others of our group are taunting them/it to get their attention (and make them careless). As soon as the trap is sprung, the "trap setters" will join the fray (Jesabela maybe even getting a sneak attack?).Should the terrain not be suited for that, Jesabela's companions should stand in a row (Hoagar in the middle), bows and gun ready, and take careful aim at the same Dhax (should there still be more than one survivor). To coordinate such an aimed shot, Jesabela could count down a number of heartbeats and give the command to fire - the others would just have to tell her how much time they need. (Bows and guns might differ in that, after all.)</blockquote>
