Before I could even proceed to the carriage, I stopped by the wandering players near the citadel. I sneaked past the skirmish over the tunnel and headed over to the extensive woodlands. These couple of adventurers knew the royalties would escape from the backside, so they kept waiting outside. Armed with various tools and weapons, these players were ready to kill the king and kidnap the two women.
This mob also had their group waiting on the cliffs beyond the forest. Thousands of mercenaries gathered around, planning to disrupt the peace in the kingdom. As long as there was money on the line, they cared nothing but to finish the job.
Despite their scheme, the group looked unaware of which part the royalties would come outside from the cave.
The castle's rear had thousands of routes and traps laid for invaders and bandits. The architects designed the place to confuse anyone wishing to enter the fort, and the players outside were one of them.
