That would certainly work fine,
Child. And, of course, the other way you could work it, if you want more than two slavers to deal with, is just to have some of the slavers coming in from the south break through to them and cut the group Khamir sent off before they find any of the slavers heading toward the women and children.
Or, I could come up with something completely different to keep them...I mean, there's enough going on, I think.
So it's whatever you prefer.
