Intent: get the Water Carrier to flee into the forest, pursued by Vidar and his thugs, in order to speak to the Carrier and kill Vidar.

Vasil crouches down and forces Vidar to tell him the weaknesses of the camp.
Vidar "You have the forbidden power. It is forbidden for a reason. Were you to showcase this talent, it would threaten our existence. You cannot be allowed to exist, and for this, they will hunt you. You, and any who have power like this must be destroyed. Turned to dust."
We get the idea that there are things that require spirit damage to destroy. Our capacity for channeling will be helpful in this regard - destroying things that will help them.
GM: "To make things explicit. Things with the Spirit Nature trait are not harmed by conventional means, but can be harmed by spiritual means, like channeling." [Paraphrased]

Shadow and Vasil running away from the burning camp and arrive at the ambush point in the middle of the night.
Taft is just getting the last stragglers into the camp. At least 20 people are here.
As we arrive, Shadow collapses - a deep gash in its side from a rock.
(Prior to this session, there were 200 people in camp including approximately 80 combat-ready folks. 10 of those were killed).

As the session draws to a close, the warband are largely victorious.
The banner is scattered to the wind as ashes, engulfed in flame. The Speaker - alerted by the screaming of the banner, rushed out of their tent, only to be beheaded by the wolf's mighty jaws. Too sudden to even scream.
Vasil spread the fires further throughout the camp, building upon the destruction already brought.
Taft ensures the fleeing workers make it through the forest to safety.
Making it to the camp, Shadow collapses, exhausted, lightly wounded. Vasil was spared the need to run, but took some hits too.
Shadow needs rest, but with the camp burnt and broken, their water supply poisoned, we'll see what happens next.
