I called Enkidu to survey the wilderness for side quests and spotted bandits ambushing Caliph soldiers near a fallen tree. Too far to intervene immediately, I watched through Enkidu's eyes before riding my sand horse to the scene. Then I eliminated the bandits who overpowered the others earlier.
I called Enkidu to scout the surrounding wilderness in search of side quests. While scanning the area through the eagle's eyes, I spotted a group of soldiers belonging to the Caliph who were stopped near a broken cart and a fallen tree blocking the path.
Suddenly, a band of opportunistic bandits launched a surprise attack on them. Because I was too far away to intervene on foot, I continued watching the fight unfold through Enkidu's vision.
The bandits quickly overwhelmed and defeated both soldiers before retreating back into their nearby hiding spots.
Realizing these were the same bandits responsible for chopping down trees to ambush traveling merchants, I decided to teach them a lesson.
I mounted my sand horse and rode toward the location at full speed to catch them red-handed. Upon arrival, I approached the broken cart to inspect a chest while keeping an eye out for the hidden enemies.
I moved into their hiding zone and took down two bandits instantly using a chain assassination.
In the middle of the fight, I accidentally dropped a smoke bomb, but I quickly adapted to the chaos.
I threw a hidden blade to eliminate another remaining enemy before the final bandit rushed straight toward me, only to meet the same quick end. With every enemy defeated, I cleared the site completely.
Until next time, happy gaming.
