Marshal Stormblade

True to his word, none of the soldiers dared to stop them anymore. The fact that this person was escaping the city and not attacking it brought great relief to them. In fact, they were happy that the duo was leaving their city; thus, their stance changed.

"Should we pursue them, Sir Lanka?" a soldier asked the knight protecting the walls, who was still shaken by what he had witnessed. After recomposing himself, Knight Lanka shook his head.

"We are tasked with protecting the walls. This might be a trap and a distraction from an enemy attack. Reload the ballistae and increase security. We have to report this to the lord as soon as possible!"

As the knight was giving his orders, commotion rose as more soldiers flooded the walls. Sir Lanka looked down the walls to see another titled and esteemed knight leading his soldiers to give chase. Seeing who it was, the knight's face lit up with joy.
