Someone shouts, "Ambush!" and you prepare to fight. Your Ranger guards turn to you in alarm, unaware of your intention, some even raising their bows to take aim at you again. Guide – with what seems like hesitation to you – lets out her spores to translate. They react immediately. Some climb the trees with ease, others vanish into the undergrowth while a few take up defensive positions near your group.

You will not endanger your mission by helping some rogue group you know nothing about. On the contrary, this ambush presents a golden opportunity to show your captors you are on the same side, and a worthy ally. Then arrows start to fly.
