intended for you to come with me. Though I thought you could ride on the
same horse as me. I don't really want to risk you getting captured
again." "Oh," said Astra, taken aback. She had thought he had meant being with him when it came to stealing a horse. "We could try stealing two horses. It depends on how easy getting our hands on one is." He gestured to the sergeant of the men who had been standing close by. "We're to make our way around the main body of the guerillas. I didn't see many of them guarding the supply train, but I only got a brief glance at it. "Regardless of that, it is these that I want you to try and distract away from the train, and preferably away from the main group of guerillas. They're to remain as unaware of what's going on as possible. If it means having to engage the train's guards, so be it. However, combat is a last resort. Am I clear on that?" "Yes, sir. Perfectly clear." "Good. Let's get going, then. Astra and I will follow on behind."
