The Grandmasters had been drawn to the scene by the uproar created by the clash between the elderly man of the Roaring Tiger Sect and Vargus. In a world where might dictates right, the Grandmasters' primary concern wasn't necessarily the wellbeing of the populace but the disturbance the conflict had wrought.
Their presence was not a gesture of protection for the innocent but a response to the unacceptable disruption of order. In their world, while the strong may reign supreme, even they must adhere to a certain code - chaos and destruction on such a scale breached that unspoken agreement.
The Grandmasters, embodiments of power and authority, stood as enforcers of this principle, their arrival signaling the seriousness with which they viewed the breach of peace.
