### 227

Your heightened Kai sense warns you of approaching danger. Riders from Warlord Zegron's advance guard have broken away from the main army groups and infiltrated the hills to the east. Having followed the stream, and looted several hamlets along the way, they are now poised to ambush refugees as they try to escape along the track to Tharro.

Forewarned by your improved Magnakai Discipline, you tell Paido of what lies ahead. 'If we continue along this path, we may be riding to our deaths,' he answers grimly. Rather than running the risk of ambush, you leave the track and take to the hills.

Turn to 311.
