### 311

You stand at the edge of the forest, waving your arms to attract the rider's attention. He turns and heads towards you. At first he moves at a trot but, as he comes closer, he spurs his mount into a gallop, lowering his spear and pointing it at you.

If you wish to attack the horseman at long range with your Staff, turn to 318.

If you wish to stand and receive the attack, turn to 269.
