There was screaming and shouting from ahead of Ares. He raised his hand and then exclaimed out. "Enough! Take another step forward and I'll slaughter the lot of you!" The darkness around them had kept the strangers hidden, and their campfires nearby had illuminated their little group of seven.
There was another horn blown from afar and Ares raised his hand up. The whistling arrows disappeared once again before he raised the walls ahead of them. He turned to see that the camp was already beset upon by some kind of beastfolk. He raised a hand and then shot out a few spears to stop them from approaching the tents.
It was then that they were revealed, the strangers. Most of them were women, but every single one was a lionfolk. His own crew were soon out and ready to fight. Apparently it was Ares and Azzo on first watch, and they had done quite a poor job.
