As the group made their way to the front gates, they found a misalgamated crowd of warriors standing at the ready. Most of them were guards and what appeared to be a handful of mercenaries or common townsfolk. However, among them all, there was one that truly stood apart from the rest of them.

At first they weren't even certain it was alive. Then it shifted in place and they could tell that this thing, whatever it was, was most certainly not a statue. At what seemed to be somewhere over ten feet tall, it loomed above everyone around it like some great stone monolith. It was vaguely humanoid in shape, but it was clearly not human -- it appeared to be made of solid rock bound together with sturdy vines, with an almost comically small iron head with two slits that seemed to symbolize eyes. It seemed to turn it's head to look at them as they approached, but then the gates shook and the colossus returned it's attention towards the great doors, seeming to tense in preparation for the fight ahead.
