How many days since the fall of Westrin? Those who escaped were now ushered into the closest city, the fort city commanded by Countess Maria Svetsa.
"Sir! There are nearly a thousand new people!" a young knight said while reporting to the guard. The moment he spoke, everyone gasped as the gates opened and refugees entered.
"Who let them in!? We cannot keep these people here. We are lacking food and resources as it is! What did the lady say?"
The moment the guard spoke, the knight answered, "The lady told us to keep all the gates closed, including the southern gates."
"Impossible! Then why are those filthy peasants entering the city!?"
Suddenly, the situation felt serious as both of the knights rushed to the castle gates.
The moment the fort city was in view, the knight became shocked.
