As Sonya arrived Silas was able to get a look at his full team. On his left side he had Luke and Jowen, Jaspers boys, Luke was in his mid 20's carried a Sword and a Kite shield and Jowen barely 16 with a bow and arrows. Jasper had outfitted his Boys well enough and it seemed Luke had seen a battlefield before, probably accompanying his father, But this was easily Jowen's first battle Silas could see it he was scared almost shaking but puffing up with a false bravado, probably trying to look tough in front of the two ladies. And that left his right side Odessa and Sonya. Both of them seemed well trained but neither had stepped foot on a battlefield. Luckily it seemed that the presence of one calmed the other so that was a plus in the girls favor. It wasn't exactly the team Silas wanted, but he had worked with less, and worse, back in his days in the arena. Forming this group into real warriors was a doable task.

A horn blew in the distance, the Orcs were coming. The mass of them was visible now making their way toward the group. It was then that Sonya introduced her plan for a trap. Silas thought on it for a moment. "[color=39b54a]Its a very good idea, I like it. But at the moment there are to many variables. We have to many new troops and we can't predict who will make what moves. We don't need some of our men finding a gap to charge forward and get caught in our own trap. So lets hold off for now. Maybe you can cut off the enemies retreat with that trick after we engage our group will give you all the time you need to prepare.[/color]" Silas offered knowing a trap on the enemy retreat would assure victory on the field the moment even one orc troop turned to run. "[color=39b54a]But for now form up Luke on my left, Jowen behind your brother, Odessa on my right, Sonya behind Odessa. Listen to me and do what I say and I can guarantee we will make it out of this alive.[/color]" Silas said as he took up his position. He drew his twin blades then stabbed them into the ground at his feet for quick access, he removed his quiver took a single arrow then passed the quiver back to Jowen giving the boy extra ammo. Lastly he brought up his own bow and knocked an arrow waiting to draw until the enemy was within the range where he could pick his target not lob a shot. "[color=39b54a]Jowen Open fire when you feel ready[/color]" Silas said calmly as the beasts approached. "[color=39b54a]Everyone else ready yourselves.[/color]" He added as the orcs started to become distinguishable in the distance. The orcs would soon be upon them the battle was about to start.
