The journey back through the forest to the Hill Fort is uneventful. Your group is led by Gryviix, followed by Vitta and another male, with you in the centre. Bringing up the rear are the four remaining soldiers, two of whom are carrying Aeryn’s healing supplies.<br/>After about 3 hours you arrive at your destination. The Hill Fort is situated on terrain only 30ft higher than you as you approach, but the 20ft square shaped wall complex of pack earth and wooden stakes makes it seem higher. You are not experts on architecture but it seems solid and the flat tops allow archers and soldiers with large weapons to easily attack enemy siege troop below.<br/>The gates however are a different matter. Made from a mass of planks and branches nailed together they slant at a gentle backwards angle. This too looks solid, but also awkward. As word of your arrival approaches the gates are lowered backwards, evidently they lack the technology to make hinges. Soon it lies flat on the ground, revealing a series of low tents and wooden structures through the gap in the wall.
