Rider: A rider a top a riding horse (while be added to status block if ever necessary).

Riding Horse: It's a horse.

Status

"What are you doing attacking the horses?" Adrian shouts in frustration, as one of the merchants kills the horse he'd knocked a rider off of. "Go for the men, they're the threat!" he continues.

Ignoring his current target for a moment, who is now nearly surrounded, he teleports to the nearest of the other man and launches a powerful swing at him. Feeling the adrenaline surge, he continues forward and rushes into the fray with the others, this time swinging and missing at the other of the two still-mounted knights.

Suffering Brannik's powerful attack and with the sight of his fallen comrades, one of the rider's turns to flee after making a quick attack against the Bull. As he does so he drops his guard against Wes and Brannik who both move to take advantage of this. The Arcane knight is the quickest to react of the pair and cuts down the rider as he tries to run past.

Meanwhile, with the battle nearing its end, one of the merchants attempts to calm the panicked riding horse. He slowly manages to calm down the animal, which then trots away from the main group, still acting somewhat skittish but no longer hostile. With the horse no longer in the middle of the fight, one of the other merchants charges at the last rider but has his attack parried away with ease.

As Gemma cuts off the last man's route of escape, Vanora charges in from behind delivering the killing blow. The sound of silence falls over the area as the shouts of battle and ringing of steel on steel cease. The silence is only interrupted by the occasional noise from the remaining horse which appears to still be in some distress. Then, on the wind, you hear the sound of the other horn, reminding you that the fight isn't quite over yet.

"Thank you. He was a good man, had a family back in Kingsport I believe. If it hadn't been for you it would be all of us returning to the Plains ," Vanora replies to Brannik. Meanwhile Adrian's efforts to calm the horse succeed as it nuzzles his hand in response, the horse seemingly very friendly with the Wind Dancer.

Wes

[SHOW]

Having trained in the ways of Tulrissian combat and warfare for most of your life, you're at least somewhat familiar with war horns and their uses.

The use and meaning of them does vary based on the preference of the commanders using them and the situations they are employed in but you feel fairly confident that two short blasts would signal to the other riders their assistance is no longer needed.

Adrian

+1 Equine Friend

The Riding Horse is now considered yours

Feeling confident in his memory of warhorn usage, Wes wanders towards the corpse on the commander and retrieves the horn. "Here's hoping this works." He blows into the horn, producing two short blasts that echo across the plains.

As the horse calms down, Adrian strokes its nose some and walks it over to the others. Once closer he helps Chloë up into the saddle, continuing to stroke it to try to keep calm. He makes sure to keep a tight grip on the reins while Wes blasts the horn, not wanting it to flee so soon after he'd won it over.

Brannik leans on his hammer, curious to see the effect of Wes' efforts. Not that I wouldn't mind unseating a few more of these pompous bastards, but I don't think these merchants could handle it.

As Wes' blasts echo across the plains the caravan falls silent, waiting with anticipation. The few seconds that pass feel like minutes before the reply comes, two identical short blasts.

"Well they got the message, whatever it was," Vanora says as she re-positions to the Eastern side of the caravan. "Now we just have to hope it was telling them to leave us alone, " she adds looking to the horizon.

"Way I see it, we have two options," Brannik says, turning to face the others. "We can wait it out, see if they've moved on."

Gemma nods. "Or?"

"Or we can push on, as quickly and quietly as possible. Either way, we're easy to spot if they're sending scouts."

"If any scouts do show up, waiting around by a pile of corpses certainly won't raise suspicion. None at all," Wes says with a shrug and a smirk, gazing into their former battlefield.

"I see no reason to wait," Adrian responds, joining his lover on the horse once she is safely atop it. "I doubt our movement will affect their decision to come this way, they cannot even see us from where they are now. If they come they will come whether we stay put or not, best we make a bit of progress at least."

"You're probably right," Vanora agrees. "Let's get going!" She orders the other merchants. They load up their fallen comrade's body onto one of the carts and replace some of their old swords for those of the slain soldiers, before they mount the carts and spur the mules forward with a flick of the reigns. You follow along on foot as you had done before. The whole caravan waiting for the enemy to appear on the horizon at any moment.

However that moment never comes, after around ten tense minutes Vanora speaks again. "Thank the Plainsfather, I think your trick with the horn worked," she says to Wes.

Brannik and Gemma quickly pick through the slain soldiers alongside the merchants. "It's not a matter of honor or respect," the dwarf argues with her. "We've got our own recruits to protect. We have to think about their safety, and how we're going to keep our movement supplied."

"It just feels... wrong, you know, boss?" Gemma frowns, rolling one of the riders over and checking his pack. "Taking a dead man's sword, his shield... hell, his food." She pulls out a small case of hard tack and dried meats.

"Killing people feels wrong. Innocent people dying feels wrong. A war declared by three greedy bastards clawing for that worthless crown... that feels wrong." He turns to face her, his posture rigid. "We do what we do to survive, and to ensure the commonfolk do too." The dwarf lets out a troubled sigh. "One day, it won't have to be like this, you know."

The human nods, her eyes weary. "I know."

"Good fortune for once," Brannik says. I was not expecting that gambit to work. "How are the mules?"

"Thank the Gods," Wes says, finally breathing in relief as their tension passes. "Let's hope our good fortunes keep. But perhaps this warhorn's use isn't done yet." He ponders for a moment, wondering how they might manipulate the armies' plans and movements with the horn now in their possession. He smirks before tucking it away into his bag.

He turns to Vanora and asks, "Is your journey usually this eventful?"

"Yes, at the very least we might have cause to use it with our own men down the line," Adrian responds. "And if not, tricking another army is certainly a useful ability to have." He watches as the two pick the corpses, somewhat disgusted by the act, but also seeing the merit in gaining equipment. At least we are not scavenging a battlefield. These men attacked us, their goods are now ours by right.

"A little spooked but they'll survive," Vanora replies to Brannik. "Surprisingly not," she adds in reply to Wes. "I'm glad I hired you lot though. We're not going to be leaving the safety of Gresham without an escort I can tell you that," she says, as she and the other merchants begin prepping the caravan to depart.

A few minutes later the mules are driven forward and the caravans sets off continuing towards Gresham, the towers of Stag's Rest drawing ever closer. "We should probably keep an eye out for the rest of the plants Farryn wanted," Kass says after a few minutes of walking.

"I'd almost forgotten in all the excitement," Chloë chimes in from atop Adrian's new horse.

"Good thinking," Brannik says to Kass. "I'll keep on the hunt."

As the group approaches Gresham, the Bull maintains focus on the riverbanks or other terrain that is suitable for the plants to grow in.

As you walk you keep your eyes open for the Olina Petals you still require for Farryn but fail to spot any amongst the grass and small bushes and rocks which dot the steppe.

Adrian

[SHOW]

As you walk As you walk you keep your eyes open for the Olina Petals you still require for Farryn. A small pinkish flower, you had encountered them multiples times before on your travels of Tulrisse taking a passing interest in them due to their colour being almost identical to the cherry blossoms of your home nation. Due to this you know they typically grow near larger bushes which shelter the delicate flowers from the winds which buffet the open Tulrissian plains. After about fifteen minutes of walking you spot such a bush and as the caravan nears it you see the pink of the flowers leaves around the base of the it.

"Hold," Adrian says, holding his arm up to the others as the caravan approaches the bushes he'd spotted. "There," he continues, pointing to the shrubs as he dismounts the horse. "There should be some Olina Petals here, I am pretty sure I can see them already," he adds as he steps over to gather the flowers.

"You've a knack for Tulrissian plants for not being from here originally," Wes says, surprised at the man so easily finding their target. "Pretty unbeleafable if you ask me," he adds, cracking a cheeky grin.

Adrian chuckles at Wes' pun, returning to his horse after he finishes gathering the flowers. "I may not have been in your land long, but most of my time here has been spent traveling. You learn a lot about the flora and fauna of a region when you spend most of your time surrounded by it, rather than by stone walls."
