Pull my finger.

The night was as calm as any other night and the tentative peace between Ares and Boranran remained in place. No others had arrived during the night, though Ares wasn't sure if that would remain for long. Eventually the dawn's rays crested over and beat down against the group to reveal the seventeen buffalofolk, sans the individual that had left in the night. Ares' own group were still unknown to the enemy, or at least that's what Ares assumed.

Ares had kept the others a secret, and since he was on watch and it was becoming light, he informed his group to keep hidden for now. He had the advantage in some sense as the enemy had not yet seen how many that Ares had, and therefore he could keep his fellows a surprise, especially the Bitan and the Reptai, and he wasn't entirely sure how they were going to deal with the human either.
