I noticed that, before Horace battles Tennyson's two guards, the author builds up a lot of tension and suspense. Both Will and Horace are very nervous - especially Will, who is desperately trying to find something to do to get his mind off the coming battle. Also, this part before the battle is very long, as if to make the readers feel it pass slowly, just like the characters are feeling.

Horace is trying to make people believe that he is the legendary 'Sunrise Warrior' in order to make Tennyson lose followers and be forced to fight Horace. This reminds me of Icebound Lands, where Horace became the 'Oakleaf Knight' by challenging all the corrupt knights that make people pay just to cross the bridge they guard. Because of his reputation, the lord in that city had to challenged him.

Tennyson gave his speech and then '80 bandits' attack the village and Tennyson 'beat' them. Earlier, Halt was talking about the Outsiders' plans. They would persuade the village to follow them by faking an attack and defending the village. Then they would tell the villagers to give them gold as tribute to Alseiass. Finally they would run away, with the gold. This attack was the first part of their plan.

The author sets the mood very well. These villages Halt, Will, and Horace are passing all have rusty, old, dull, and unkept buildings. The people are unfriendly, scared and constantly suspicious and most are armed weapons. Something is obviously wrong in the country.
