He turns to Idise. "However, I think that we can contrive some strategy better than a frontal assault." The map's maze of passages, though, gives no clues to Zanthus' eyes. He is one of the lowliest warriors of his temple; tactics have always been in the keeping of others. Now, though, there are no superiors upon which to rely.<br/><br/>"Perhaps one sortie taking only the able-bodied among us. No offense to the infirm intended. We can learn if there are any notables among the enemy, any casters, any priests, and perhaps strike a blow against them. Then we withdraw to here, heal, and strike again from another direction. Though the map is well-drawn, I fear that having a native of these tunnels along will be critical for us to proceed with the required speed."<br/><br/>"Horgus, Aravashnial and Anevia -- I would welcome your counsel on forming a plan. Would it be wiser to have you remain here? Or perhaps we could draw some of the enemy into an ambush, with Anevia's bow and Aravashnial's spells prepared and pointed in the correct direction. And Chief Sull -- at what time would you recommend we attack? When are the enemy most active, or do notions of day and night have no meaning at these depths? I would assume that others would appreciate a chance to rest as much as I."<br/><br/>"With luck and the blessings of the Gods we may rest in your manor as early as tomorrow evening, Horgus. And an excellent base it shall be, I am certain."<br/><br/>
