Here they come!”

It was Edvin who saw the first movement and called a warning, as the line of Temujai warriors rose out of the tall grass some thirty meters in front of the Skandian defenses.

Thorn watched them as they rushed forward five meters, then paused as they took arrows from their quivers, nocked them to their bows and drew back. He waited a second, then roared a command.

“Shields!”

As one, the massive Skandian shields came up, linking together and forming a solid wall. A second later, there was a savage rattle as the volley of arrows slammed into the hide-and-wooden shields. Thorn was watching the enemy through a tiny gap between his shield and Stefan’s. He saw them preparing to shoot again.

“Keep them up!” he roared, and the second volley rattled harmlessly against the shield wall.

Thorn glanced sidelong at Stefan. “They can keep this up all day but they won’t hurt us. They’re going to have to come to close quarters.”
