| 355 Now your curiosity is truly aroused. A flood of questions fill your thoughts. How could this Hordim have made it so far into Kalborea? Why is he here, dumped in the middle of nowhere and why are there no other signs of a fight? Only by following the tracks will you be able to find out. Urging Pallenten forward you continue to track the footprints to the south-east. As you pursue the answers to your unsaid questions, the flat terrain of the plains gives way to an area of rolling hills. As soon as you crest the first of these hills you ride unexpectedly into the middle of a Hordim camp. Before you can respond a heavy fist punches you in the back with such force that you are thrown from Pallenten and roll down into a depression on the other side of the hill. All the Hresh warriors jump to their feet, weapons ringing as they prepare for battle. Three of these soldiers immediately rush you. Struggling to your feet you draw your own sword and stand your ground.
| You are caught in the middle of a fight you can only survive by some divine miracle. The Hresh Warriors have a combined combat rating of 32 and an endurance of 35. In the first stage of this battle you are only fighting the first three that have risen against you. If you survive the first combat round, turn to section 322. If you do not then it will be here that your quest ends.
