Scouting

This is my Category A entry to Challenge 2 in Guilds of Historica. Credit for the tree design goes to Mark of Falworth.

Sir Glorfindel had sent two of his scouts ahead to try and find how far the Black Spire had advanced into Avalonia and the best place for an attack. The scouts were walking through a forest when they heard some noise not far away, the two men quickly swung themselves into the branches of a nearby tree. They were barely out of sight when a Drow and Orc commander stepped into view. The two imposing figures then discussed their attack route on a nearby Avalonian city. The route they chose would take them right through a ravine perfect for an ambush.The scouts listened carefully then told Glorfindel of all they had learned.
