"Who in Shor's name would attack our village, ballsy bandits?" One of the patrons asked, getting up as Edwin was using magic to barricade the door.

Some patrons helped Edwin to barricade the inn.

"I...I couldn't see. It was too dark. I just saw a white shadow move through the night and attack me. I just ran, trying to get away...oh gods, they killed people...tore them to bits." The villager recalled.

They could hear more screams outside and then there was banging on the door. "Let me in!" a frightened villager yelled, he hit his fists against the door. "Open up before they get me too! I don't want to die!"

Some clicking could he heard from outside, close to the inn.

Rigmor looked over at Argaeus for a moment then said. "That doesn't matter right now."

When they got closer they ran into a group of guards standing outside the fort gates. "Open the gates! We've come to help!" One of the guards yelled to the men that should be at the battlements, though there was no reply and all they could hear were weird clicks, the clank of weapons and screams.

A guard suddenly fell off the battlements, landing ouside the fort, dead. His chest filled with arrows.

When Rigmor and Erich approached, one of the guards at the rear noticed them and said. "Stay back citizen, it's not safe."

"What's going on?" Erich asked.

"We don't know, but enemies have managed to get inside the fort." The guard replied. "We're trying get inside to help fight them off."

Rigmor noticed how the gates were closed tight. ''How did enemies get inside the fort? They clearly didn't break in through the front. I don't see any ladders or ropes nearby either. Also, how did a large enemy force even manage to get this close without alerting the guards prior...none of this makes sense.''
