End of the Beginning

At this moment, Kahn and Albestros were walking amongst the crowd of thousands of people full of various beastkins, and Demi-humans who were trying to enter and exit the city gates. The bustling crowd was in a hurry because it was the time of the evening and soon, the sun will disappear & those who finished today's struggle of life would return to their homes and relax. 

While those who had to travel outside to other destinations or their professions required them to work at night were leaving out of the gates. 

Kahn and Albestros were mixed within the crowd, trying to leave peacefully but after hearing Ronin's report, he felt like the noble clans hadn't truly learned their lessons and still wanted to kill the old grandmaster blacksmith. They were so daring to even keep hundreds of their fighters hidden in plain sight in the nearby settlements to city gates; as part of normal crowd but ready to attack at a moment's notice.
