This should be discussed. I have something quite ready in paper already, but can change it. I was thinking of Sythric asking for Brand to join an onrush against those easterlings that come rumbling downwards, and thence are the most dangerous, as they have both momentum and the height advance. Sythric wouldn't ask for Dorran or Fion (injured!) to that kind of job!
As my text is now, I have written, that Sythric didn't know, whether Brand was coming with him or not. So that's of course up to Arry...
Sythric has called everyone to form a circle as the rain of arrows ended. It's in everybody's hands, whether to think it a good idea (which it is) or not. S's idea is, that S, Raed, Brand and maybe Osm (in my post it's only S addressing Brand - S thinks, Raed has judgement enough on his own - and Osm is not to be seen near him)would try to distract the attackers by counterattacking them all over and not letting them to assault the ladies or younger men so fiercely...
