They had mounted their steeds and were riding trough the thick high grass in the direction of the bandits' lair. They had about 5 miles to ride and that would take at least one hour. Aravorn and Elentari were riding in the front, followed by Callo, behind followed the rest of the company. Ewinda and Lostlondwen were riding as the last ones.

After riding for about half an hour Elentari finally broke the silence. "We haven't met any pits yet, but we know that they will come, so please watch out!" Everyone in the company gave a nod, so that Elentari knew that they'd understood the message. Arvaron and Elentari started talking. Ewinda couldn't hear it though. She was too far behind. She caught up with Lostlondwen who was riding right in front of her.

"How may bandits are there" she asked in a low voice.

"oh...well,I think Elentari said it's ought to be seven," Lostlondwen answers quickly.

"Then it will be easy to prevail, or what do you think?" Ewinda asked.

"I'm afraid it isn't going to be that simple," Lostlondwen replied."I mean with all those tunnels and those giant pits."

"Oh, right, Elentari just warned us about that. You are probably right Lostlondwen," Ewinda said in an even lower voice than before.

A fresh breeze came over the company as they'd got closer. Suddenly Ewinda lost control over the horse. Sudden movments from made it difficult to stay on the horse's back. She tried to calm it down, when she saw that it was just to trample in a huge pit. Then the horse made a jump so that Ewinda lost her grip and fell of.

She had landed in the pit, and the only thing she felt was a pain in her back. It was quite dark in there and it smelled rotten. She had been so stupid. She was told to watch out for these and she blew it. She cleared her troat and called for Lostlondwen. No replie. They have noticed that I'm not up there, but here, she thought. Or haven't they?

Suddenly she heard some qeer sounds, and she forgot the pain in her back. She grabbed her sword. Could it be the bandits? The only thing she could to was to wait and see. A terror for what it could be was poisoning her mind.
