Except... Someone might volunteer to lead her to the safe spot/help point it out to her? Of course there are major risks for that person...but there are always heros of that nature.
O-oh... Leave it to me. I'll figure out Athwen's survival. Child said she liked surprises. I'll do my best to make it believable and maybe put in a suspension of disbelief. Maybe.

In my save, I am not going quite that far. I am simply having Athwen go forward into view. After that, another couple posts can be made if needed. I was thinking the slavers would want to have a chance to write about changing course slightly. Perhaps the people in camp being alerted by the oncoming horsemen and woman......

Can't wait.
