But the sound is still from behind, i.e. the way we’ve just come? Or it’s just vaguely out there somewhere? ---

It’s in the tunnel you just left. Whatever it is will have to climb down then through. ---

Grins evilly. Ambush outside the crawlspace sounds good to me. ---

“Axe it a question! Oh ho ho… Ingmar understandink that you made a pun!” whispers Ingmar as he prepares his own axe to assist with the ambushink and the choppink and the cuttink. ---

OK, you stand poised to strike the moment he shows himself. He doesn’t show himself. If you stand super quiet, Eren can hear him breathing just on the other side of the hole. ---

Ingmar tries to slow his own breathing… The Tension! ---

Ingmar will maintain the ambush until at least the boy and the girl and any other not so combative people have exited the cave. ---

Brunis will also wait until everyone else is gone, or until a head pokes out, whichever comes first. ---

I’ll stick around as well. ---

If the stronger fighters are laying the ambush, I’ll guard rear for getting everyone else out. ---

As soon as the others get mostly out, and the light grows very dim, a man starts to emerge from the hole. ---

Wait for it . . . wait for it. . . . (as soon as he notices us, or gets more than his shoulders out, the axe comes down) ---

Do we want to kill him, or just apprehend him? ---

> [@Jimmy\_Chitwood](#): > > Do we want to kill him, or just apprehend him? I say apprehend him if we can. We don’t know his story, and it’s not our place to be his judge, jury, and executioner. That’s for the town to decide. ---

You’re asking this now? Does it look like anyone we recognize? And is he armed? ---

Are you actually discussing this while you’re in an ambush situation? If you want to keep the element of surprise, right now we need actions, not words. And no, you don’t recognize him. His hair is covering his face.
