Screams from the rear of the line reach your group as you usher everyone toward the gates.

"I knew it," the captain swears. "Close the gate, close the gate! They've awakened the Deepwood!"

You turn, and see people in the treeline being thrown.

Petitions from the refugees rise to a loud crescendo.

"We cannot risk a breach," The captain retaliates. "You've brought danger to this city, and it is my job to protect it, not you."

You turn, draw your weapons, and head to the back of the line.
