‘Take him!’ shouts Maouk. ‘But take him alive!’

You sprint towards the distant galley. The crew are still unaware of the desperate situation. They have not witnessed the murder of the envoy and are still oblivious to your peril. Before you can shout for help, a horseman cuts across your path, blocking your access to the ship.
Fight this guy, dive into the sea, or surrender to Maouk?

What have you got against water? Is it that one time we got shipwrecked and lost our armour? I'm sure that wouldn't happen again.

Shadow on the Sand posted:

Frantically the warrior pulls on the reins and tries to trample you beneath the hooves of his startled horse.

Horseman: COMBAT SKILL 21 ENDURANCE 28

Lone Wolf: COMBAT SKILL 29 ENDURANCE 32
Horseman: COMBAT SKILL 21 ENDURANCE 28
Combat Ratio: 8

But wait! We have the option to evade at any time by jumping into the sea or by surrendering. If you want to take either of those options, specify a condition (eg. jump into the sea if our Endurance goes below 20). If we choose to fight, we have three rounds to win. If he's not dead at the end of the third round, we immediately turn to a different page, and at that point it will be too late to evade (so we can evade immediately; after one round; after two rounds; or not at all). And this is one of those rare fights where losing doesn't mean game over. Not that we're likely to lose outright with that combat ratio*, but if we do then we turn to another page instead of just dying.

So those are your options:
  • Jump into the sea when/after/if <whatever>.
  • Surrender when/after/if <whatever>.
    or
  • Fight to the end/for three rounds.
* Edit: Actually it's completely impossible. The most damage he can do to us in three rounds is 12, and even if the fight could go longer we'd still kill him in a four rounds or less and take a maximum of 16 damage.

Shadow on the Sand posted:

The horse and its dead rider topple from the quayside and splash into the sea. The crew have drawn up the gangplank, forcing you to leap the gap. You fall short and land on the row of oars bristling from the galley’s side.

The wood is wet and slippery, and you have to fight to keep your balance.

You manage to inch your way along the row of oars until you reach the ship’s rail, where eager hands catch hold of your cloak and pull you to safety. Maouk’s voice booms out across water. ‘Surrender the Kai Lord to me. The Zakhan commands it. Your lives and the lives of all your kin will be forfeit if you disobey this order!’

The crew stare at each other in sorrow and dismay—they know that Maouk’s words are no idle threat. You cannot expect these men to sacrifice their families for you, so you must quickly decide on an alternative plan.
Once again we have the option to surrender, or to dive into the sea.
