It sounds like after the last few skirmishes the Empire's forces in their immediate area are falling back to fortify their position. Likely to prepare a counter strike.

He'd turn to walk away as soon as he was done speaking, intending to talk to the watch commander to make sure her men stayed vigilant.

Almost immediately after throwing it, Silas runs dives and rolls behind Mathew, trying to pop up on the other side of him with a jump back kick to the other side of his face!

It's not nearly as close to Mathew as Silas wanted, but it probably would cloak both their vision for a moment.

If everything went to plan Mathew would be hoisted up as Silas swung down, the cable holding them up by the branch. Silas would use his momentum to land a double kick to Matt's face when he didn't have much earth to work with up here.
