Forge ahead through the hills

“Hills gotta be our best bet!” You say with determination.

“Woah? What makes you so sure?”

“Think about it Petra. Not likely they’ll catch up to us on foot if we keep movin’. So the only way they could outpace us would be on horses.”

“Do orcs even ride horses?” Petra asks quizzically.

“Do ya wanna take that chance?” You ask in return. Petra goes to speak before briefly reconsidering.

“Touché.”

“C’mon. Maybe they’ll be a safe place to rest in the hills. I gotta address this bloody wound.” You wince as you begin to move again. Pain jolts through your side but determined to reach some semblance of safety, you push on.
