As Arran made his way down from the wall, he could hear calls of alarm sounding throughout the city.
Only moments had passed since the first guard had spotted the approach of Rannoc's forces, but already, the city was in an uproar. And although most of Kadun's troops didn't yet know that the gate stood open, it wouldn't take long for word to spread.

Knowing that there wasn't much time, Arran hurried down the stairs and immediately approached the gate, where he found Captain Kaleesh facing over three dozen guards.
Despite the uneven numbers, the guards looked at Kaleesh with uncertain eyes. They must have heard the calls of alarm, but it seemed they hadn't yet seen through the captain's disguise. And now, they found themselves torn between their own instincts and the supposed Ranger's orders.
