You run half-crouched to the barricade and prise a bow from the hand of a dead soldier. You have spotted the leader of the bandit cavalry--a tall, dark-skinned warrior with a thin, chiselled nose, rallying his horsemen at the foot of the stone watchtower. You know you must kill him before he can regroup his troops, or D'Val and his hard-pressed men will be ridden down and mercilessly slaughtered.

You notch an arrow and draw back the bowstring. The straining cord bites into your fingers as you take aim.

Pick a number from the Random Number Table.

If you have the Kai Discipline of Weaponskill (any weapon), add 2 to the number you have picked.

If your total is now 0-3, turn to 153.

If it is 4-7, turn to 323.

If it is 8-11, turn to 39.
