Marcus arrived within Nakhla at the head of a hundred-strong force. The gates opened for him and the atmosphere in the entire city seemed to change with his first step in. Rumors of his arrival had been spreading throughout the city and the people had been stocking up on supplies, worried at how their lives would change. The city had no officially been placed completely under the military's control.
"You have your orders. Spread across the city." Marcus shouted down the line of men, who slammed a fist on their chests before running off to carry out the mission. Marcus took ten men with him and went for the Mayor's office. Those with him were to always be by his side. He wasn't dumb or confident enough to walk around alone in a city like this.
