The huge metal gates opened with a screeching sound. Beyond the gates, I could see barriers made of earth stacked upon each other to create a wall that the monsters couldn't get through or over. Since there were mages amongst this group, the responsibility of moving those barricades belonged to them.

I already planned a formation for the soldiers to use in fighting the wolf monsters. Since the very pass we're hoping to go through, was fighting against us, then it would be in our best interest to plan our every move.
The soldiers who were adept at using shields, and had classes that made them tanks were placed at the front. They would begin our march, and directly behind them were our long range attackers, causing damage and killing the monsters would be entirely up to them.
