To say that you are the best is quite and overstatement, you have just come from a devastating defeat and you lost most of your territory, troops, and supplies.
As you band of several hundred troops and several skiffs journey along the coast, you come to what seems to be an abandoned tower.
What do you do?
I will advance the story based on the most interesting response/ideas
My troops and I are worn down from our defeat. I would order us to approach the tower and take shelter there for the next few days until we recover.
I would wait it out near the coast for a week to ensure the tower really was abandoned
besides which it would give my troops a much needed rest after the attack, if we needed supplies during the week I would land a small party as far away from the tower as I could to avoid drawing attention to myself
