Outside the territory
The group 'trapped' outside was led by Ansel. In this group, he was with the twins, as well as about a dozen civilians who joined the hunting team.
It started out quite nicely. They hunted monsters, defeated them, gained fair amounts of experience for each team member, and also got a lot of loot.
By the end, everyone had their space filled with resources. Sadly, a mob of hundreds arrived, and many level 7s, which was a bit dangerous even for them. Loki was there with them but he was only allowed to help them level up and save their arses from death, so he refused to clear the mobs for them.
Fortunately, Ansel had bottles of Beast Repellant potions and they managed to avoid the bulk of it.
Of course, Alterra's potions couldn't yet be compared to that of the city's, so there were monsters that still went to attack them, but it was manageable.
They fought their way until they caught sight of the main walls.
