MEANWHILE ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD :

Meanwhile you had a good evening, the peasant of the village of Weeb had accepted to swear you their allegiance if the count of En, their liege lord, accepted. You could always be a vassal of two lords for your different lands and as any good landowner you liked having more lands anyway. Of course you first had to deal with this bandit, Dark Sasuke and his gang that hid in the hills. Killing a beast was one thing, but these knaves, of course the peasantry told that Dark Sasuke was dangerous but you knew his ilk, they were only good to frighten peasant, they would flee like little birds when seeing some knights in mail.
Still, an ambush could be dangerous, the place was mountainous and in your youth, during the Aragonese Crusade, you remarked that the Spaniards fought without honor, throwing rocks from cliffs like some primitives and attacking supply convoys instead of facing the French chivalry in open battle. Well, when they tried to face it in open battle they quickly got routed so perhaps there was some logic in their cowardice, but still, even if they forced the king's army to retreat by starving it it was a shameful display. So you ordered Brother Louis, the brave Templar, and Bohémond your knight, and your guardsmen to keep their eyes open. Elana, your servant who was an assassin before it, was a quick girl too and could see well with her eyes and was watching your backs. You turned towards here while riding, she still reddened when she saw you and you found it adorable, but you had made yourself clear and you did not plan to enjoy the joys of flesh with her. You were trying to remain faithful to your magnificent bride to be, lady Rose, and you intended to keep your discipline, as hard as it was.

You continued riding with enthusiasm, enjoying the mountainous landscade. You were an inhabitant of the plains, be it in Champagne or here, in India, and if you still found too stiff cliffs annoying you could not deny the beauty of their view. But as you rode seeing the mountains in the early spring you could hear Carius, your most reliable guardsman of those that you brought arguing with Gepees, the one who generally spotted tracks.

-I tell you Gepees, it's not a good place to go.

-But Lord Charles wanted to find the bandits, what better way as to go to the road where they ambush us.

-But it is the most ambushable place that exist look at those cliffs.

It was your brave Ancel le Purineur, your experienced scout and tracker that followed you from France that was the first pointing out what he saw.

-I saw movement up there, on the big rock.

There was indeed a big rock in the middle of the road, well, calling it a rock would be preposterous, it was more of a huge cliff in a place where the road was divided in two. This cliff was hard to access, you would need to climb on it, and it was perhaps 60 feet high. You wondered who would climb on it.
