They were travelling on the Small Trading route.

On the second day, after they had crossed the bridge, the route led them by a small forest. Suddenly masked men turned up from the forest where they have hided. Threateningly their weapons were targeted at the travelers and the guardians.

[Vauban]

Two disguised stepped forwards, and the larger ones of the two spoke, „Be calm! Then nothing will happen to you. We want your money and the goods, not your life! If however someone wants to play the hero, an arrow is waiting for him.“

The threat showed effect. The two guardians let their weapons fall. Three robbers pushed the travelers to the edge of route and watched them well. The remaining robbers were searching through the crates and baskets.

[Vauban]

Suddenly one of the robbers stopped. He had found JURON's sword, which had been hidden under the cart with the other weapons of the four friends. Excited he came with the sword to his leader, „look, what I found! “„Where do you get that from? “„It was hidden there under the cart. “

„Hey, you there “, the robber captain asked KUGAR, „whom belongs this cart? Is it yours? “Kugar threw himself fearfully before the robber to soil, „no, no, it belongs to the pilgrims. Please preserves our life. We knew nothing of them and their affairs. “   

[Vauban]

The robber captain turned to its comrades and shouted some commands. „Take everything with you! I will carry the pilgrims with me. Bind the others together! Then we will separate, take the cart and distribute the goods as discussed! Leave to me only four horses and the luggage of the pilgrims! I will follow later to the meeting place. “ The robbers did, as their leader had instructed. They left as fast, as they could, the place of the robbery.

The robber captain stepped to the pilgrims. He stopped before HADOR for a long time.  He examined the old hunter very exactly under his mask.
