The commander's voice was familiar... you're sure he was the one who took you prisoner temporarily after you were injured. You're still a little unclear as to what you were doing here, but you know Logan is somehow connected. The other person mentioned, Commander Avery, is unknown to you. You're sure you don't know him.
You send one of the guardsmen to the rooftop and bell-tower to have the sharpshooters focus on the first few rows. He snaps to attention, salutes and runs off.
You walk out onto a portico and stare down the valley at the mass of troops headed toward the monastery. You see the farmers at the bottom of the hill putting the finishing touches on the fuel-air bomb... you're not sure the monastery will survive the explosion, but they've place several large rolls of hay behind the bomb and dug a hole for the mixture. You hope they understood the balance, it could go off at any time and kill everyone there.
As you watch, you've come to the conclusion that unless this attack is stopped, these people... farmers, nuns, and all will be obliterated. You also feel that the opposition will enslave them. You're sure now that the fields are the best defense... setting them on fire... the wind is at your back... it would drive the flames right toward the enemy and force them to funnel down the narrow roads and into the awaiting bomb.
A grin forms on your face.

Have the fields torched and prepare my forces to maximize the ambush. See if i can locate anyone who is likely to be "Avery". Proceed with the intention of showing this force what a True Son can do.
