5 150 The third day's camp was made in the swamp forest that borders the city of Ar on the north.
5 151 I had chosen this area because it is the most uninhabitable area within tarn strike of Ar.
5 152 I had seen too many village cooking fires on the last night, and twice I had heard the tarn whistles of nearby patrols—groups of three warriors flying their rounds.
5 153 The thought crossed my mind of giving up the project, turning outlaw, if you will, deserter, if you like, but of saving my own skin, trying to get out of this mad scheme if only with my life, and that only for a time.
