"Okay, okay, okay!" Tangle said. "So we've got our plan, then!" She swept a hand in Carol's direction. "You'll wait with the rope up the road. We'll set it up so that you can draw it taught and keep it that way once the carriage has passed." Absently, Tangle was fairly certain that she remembered seeing a pulley lying around the farmhouse somewhere. It probably wasn't too rusted to use. "Then you--" She pointed to Xyle "--you do your horse magic stuff. Try to lure as many of the riders back up the road toward the rope trap as you can. Once you two get them, run into the trees to try and draw off any of them who can still fight after that -- hopefully there will be too many of them for you to fight all on your own."
She turned to Marceline. "The fire's a good idea; you and me can hide in the trees, try to throw some around the horses to make them hard to control. We can keep moving, keep them guessing where exactly it's coming from. We'll just need to be careful to avoid the coach horses. Speaking of which..."
Tangle turned finally to Avalon. "If Roscoe drops you onto that coach from the air, do you feel like you can knock a few fools off fast enough to drive away with it? I promise that the horses pulling it won't need a lot of persuading to run by that point."
