The 250 skirmishers went into loose formation, and spread into the trees for cover. They released a volley, then fell back. "Incoming fire!" The Whiterun soldiers yelled. Most in the line of fire held up their shields in time to block the attack but a few were not so lucky and either were killed or injured.

"Sir, they fell back." The officer said.

"After them." The Jarl ordered and the army continued down the road, nearing Sungard." The army of roughly 1200 kept marching in formation westward.

"My thane! We've found the rest of their army. They are held up next to a mountain southeast of here." The lookout reported.

"Gods, they've set up an ambush for Whiterun. We have to aid them. An attack from there would cripple their formation." The Thane of Sungard said. "Round up most out men, we must head down there and help Whiterun or the battle may be lost."

"If we hurry we might arrive there the same time that Whiterun does." An officer from Sungard said.

"Aye, then let's not delay." The Thane said and gathered his men to march down to the road and aid Whiterun. They were a force of 600 men, with the other 100 remaining behind at the town. (Pac again.)

The infantry formed a schiltorm in the middle of the road, and the archers continued to fire upon Whiterun's army.
