The hate of deceit

One of the guards searching for Tobias stumbles upon the prison tunnel gate. He slows as he notices the two unconscious guards sprawled on the ground. Kneeling beside them, he checks their pulses—both are alive, but completely out. His gaze shifts to the dark tunnel ahead, leading straight into the prison.

"Help! We need help over here!" he shouts.

Two other guards quickly arrive, eyes wide as they take in the scene.

"What happened?" one asks.

"I don't know," the first guard replies, shaking his head. "I just got here, and they were already on the ground."

"Are they dead?" the second guard asks cautiously.

"No, just knocked out."
