I don't trust them either. Hopefully the company turns out to be civil.

Banion tries to keep up with the fleeing orc and the charging warrior. He can't really do it and remain concealed. It's not just his short legs, but the brush. He is able to keep sight of them, though, as he can get to their side of the hill.
Eusebius, Beamer and the farmers lose sight of Juliana as she crests the hill. As they approach the shed at the top of the hill, numerous bodies become visible in the moonlight, lying about the shed, evidently dead.
Juliana is catching up with the orc, but realizes it will make it to the second shed before she can cut it down. Cresting the hill, her horse accelerates on the downhill, but then she notices another horse breaking the treeline at the bottom of the hill and head up towards her. She can't make out who it is, but some mounted warrior is heading up towards her. Suddenly two arrows fly out of the darkness at her. She can't see the archers but they must be in front of her somewhere. One of the arrows comes close to her and thuds in the ground. The other deflects off her breastplate.
She is about 50 feet from the orc, who has reached the edge of the shed, and about 100 feet from the other horseman and the trees. Banion doens't see the arrows being shot.

Juliana & equipment weigh 298 lbs. Add saddle, bit, bridle and saddlebags, and she's well over the 301 lb medium weight for a heavy warhorse.
Juliana charges the orc. It manages to get around to the far side of the second shed before she can skewer it. She slows as she passes the shed and doesn't see the orc. It seems to have gone into the shed. The shed is about 15' by 15', and has a wide open door, but Juliana can't see inside.
The mounted warrior closes rapidly. It is another orc on a heavy warhorse. It is charging with its lance. The metal tip deflects off Juliana's armor, and the horse carries its rider on past. (Ride-by-attack)
The archers shoot again. They are definitely in the trees, some 100 feet away to the West. Again, one of the arrows clatters off her mail, but she is not injured.
Atop the hill, Aif and his farmers pause to examine the dead bodies, all of which seem to be farmhands. "Edgar, Tessman, Rufus...yes, they've killed our men." says Aif. At this point, Eusebius and Beamer can see Juliana battling below, several hundred feet away.

"They're attacking Juilian! Let's go avenge your men," Beamer says to Aif. He moves forward until in range to cast magic missle on anyone in melee with Juliana (140 feet). He will try to find some cover from which to make his attacks.
OOC:
Double moves until in range and at cover.
Spells remaining:
0th: 5, 1st: 4, 2nd: 2
Mage armor still in effect: AC 19
Bolts fired: 1

Juliana will charge after the mounted orc with the lance, attacking with her guisarme, and unleashing her focus into the weapon. She strikes the orc hard, sending him realing.
OOC: Juliana's charge plus psionic weapon (1d20+9=25, 2d6+2d4+4=15). I think that's good enought to hit

Juliana wheels her horse around in pursuit of her mounted attacker. She manages to get in the next blow and knocks it heavily off its horse.
Beamer, Banion & Eusebius sprint forward to aid her, though at this point no enemies are visible. Two more arrows shoot out from the trees at Juliana. This time one does hit.
OOC: Juliana takes 6 pts dmg, bringing her to 33, I believe. Euseibus is at 32 of 37, Beamer and Banion are are full. For Banion to move at full speed, he would have to leave the trees and brush. No one can see the orc archers in the dark forest. The door to the shed is facing them. The edge of the forest is about 100 feet from Juliana and about 200 feet from the others.
