"THE TOWN IS BEING LOCKED DOWN. NOBODY CAN LEAVE OR ENTER THE TOWN UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. THE GOVERNORS REQUIRE EVERYONE TO COOPERATE FOR THE SAKE OF THE SAFETY OF THE TOWN AND ITS PEOPLE. THOSE FOUND BREAKING THE ORDER WILL BE PUNISHED!" A loud announcement resounded throughout the entire town. It was as if the announcement was purposefully made this loud to make sure even the ones holed up in the basement of their homes would be able to hear it, and the ones sleeping to get up right away and listen.
This way, nothing or no one could leave the town without Mevron's notice. There were already dozens of guards surrounding the borders of the town. Not even the high-ranking officials or adventurers were allowed to venture out.
Some of the arrogant ones protested after getting stopped by mere guards, but the moment the guards showed the order with Mevron's seal, they immediately sealed their mouths shut and silently went back, not daring to disobey Mevron.
