Drabble 330

Finished on time at 7:06.

They stopped on the outskirts of the woods to rest and Anansi dismounted, passing the reigns of his horse over to a servant. None of Anansi's men sat down, apparently too well trained for that. If they had done that might have given Raven a chance to slip away, gaining enough of a head-start while they reorganised themselves to find Mary-Tzu's camp before they found him and warn her. Anansi was watching him closely, too, eyes following Raven wherever he went and he still couldn't find any way to get away without being immediately recaptured and dragged back to Anansi.
