He walked to the large gate, still several feet away from him, which opened slowly.
The upper part of the large slab of wood and iron detached from the old walls and began to fall down, slightly revealing what was inside the fortress.
When the heavy gate finally touched the ground, the warriors stood still behind Dag and the other Masters, lined up in neat rows.
The man in the black braid was standing behind it, still, his hands behind his back.
"Come closer, boy" he said, looking at Dag with serious air.
Dag obeyed and stepped forward, soon after him, Kjell and Egill followed him and immediately two archers popped up next to the man, quickly loading two arrows and aiming Dag's companions, who stopped suddenly.
