Judy walks at the fore of the group consisting of Finch, Andrea, Zwiche, Vala, Henry and herself. It's a short walk up to the well beaten path. The one story homes outside the walls are built from stone foundations with sharp angled thatched rooves. The presence of people is confirmed by several lights shining from the windows. A child peeks at the party from one but is quickly snatched away by an adult. Some faint yelling and the sharp sound of slap ring out from the window.
The group marches up to the gate. Two guards come out from around the corners behind the broken portucullis. Their armor is unlike the Imperial uniform at the battlefront. They wear a short fur vests over chain shirts, iron caps studded with three small spikes and wield shortspears and medium targes. They speak from behind the partial protection of the sundered iron rods.
Male Gate Guard-[Imperial]: "Another lot of mercenaries by the looks of it."
Female Gate Guard-[Imperial]: "Aye the Kinsgrumur traitor seems to 'ave sent summons for many hired swords."
The female addresses the party.
Female Gate Guard-[Imperial]: "Tis poor fortune for the lot of ye. The tactic already came to pass and this city has no more need o' thy service. Mayhaps 'tis not for nothing though. I hear some of the mercenaries ave taken on pay for the Captain commanders request to assist at the battlefront just a cycle and some away. If thy be instilled with courage the coin is good. Speak with some at the camp on the other side of the city and they will have you sorted."
