Description
Art by Duy Truong.
My associates and I flew out to the slave camp. We arrived as the Sun began to peek over the western horizon. We could see the slavers wielding whips and forcing the prisoners to work at the break of dawn. The villagers arrived and joined us at the top of the hill. William Tell said, "Do ye hath a plan?"
I said, "The soldiers are carrying whips and swords. They do not expect to be attacked with crossbows. You have the advantage."
He said, "It will be over quickly."
Tell and Yberg discussed it with their men. A few moments later they walked straight down the hill with the crossbows armed. The soldiers saw them coming and charged at them with their swords. When they were within range Tell gave the command, "Fire!" and unleashed his first arrow. The others did the same and the soldiers began dropping to the ground, most shot through the heart. Tell, Yberg, and others unleashed a hail of arrows and each found its mark. It was over almost before it began. Slain soldiers were strewn over the cobblestone. The prisoners cheered the warriors that had freed them.
