You mount your horse and set off towards King Sarnac’s headquarters at a gallop. On your ride you pass the survivors of the regiment who were blasted at the bridge. Deeply shocked they stand in groups or cower on the ground like frightened animals. The horror on their faces and the sound of their whimpering sickens your heart.

As you cross the road and climb towards the King’s tent, a Lencian cavalry officer comes riding down the hill towards you. He seems to recognize you and he calls for you to stop.

If you wish to bring your horse to a halt and find out what he wants, turn to 105.

If you choose to ignore his signal and continue your ride to King Sarnac’s headquarters, turn to 21.
