The whole discussion took only few moments. The sun was still high enough for them all to see their surroundings well but would soon begin its descent towards the hills.

They moved forward, leaving the wagon behind, the wagon braked and horses bound to a tree.

Nazir's idea was good - but not against horsemen. Gerric watched the top of the hill with bad feelings - he fought horsemen and they always had advantage when fighting downhill.

It was better to move to the hill, to gain the same advantage. Even Nazir's bow would reach further from up there and the boulders provided some cover in case enemies had some ranged weapons. He could even shoot few times before they reach them.

He did not count with the cooperation from the farmers. They would protect the kids, but not fight back if they could escape. Maybe Kate could sway some of them... but he did not count on it. Four against six, with an archer who can kill two before they reach them...

Not bad. Still, Nazir had to stay on the hill - and his targets would have to be first enemies with ranged weapons, then leadership. Now it was just a matter of reaching the hill on time...

...that was a good roll.
If you stay on the top of the hill, the riders won't be able to charge and will take few rounds to get to you.
