Rider kept his grip solid upon her before jumping from their tree, into another and down to the ground, trying to feel out with his senses where the mines were. Hoping beyond hope that they didn't go off accidentally.

He couldn't summon his chariot. Not here, there wasn't enough space. So Rider thrust the sword of Kupriotes into the air and let lightning crash around them. Probably not the smartest idea, given their proximity to explosives. But he needed his horse at least.

Bucephalus was summoned. The great black horse stood obediently as Rider jumped into the saddle and held Saft carefully in the saddle before him. Then he kicked the horse in the sides and rushed forward towards the other clearing.
