Chapter 10Upon sighting the tower, the group new they could be in trouble. If they waited until full night, the bandits would probably come out and attack. If they made it through the night, the bandits would probably attack in the day. Either way, they were probably going to see violence. They resolved to sending Katar alone on horseback to scout ahead of the wagon. He kept about 500 to 600 feet in front of the wagon while it lagged behind. Soon Katar was accosted by hidden bandits in the underbrush. He managed some deft talk to convince them that he and his buddies had nothing of value, and the bandits allowed the group to pass for a mere silver and copper. Crisis averted!
