An Outrageous Act of Wickedness

The cataclysmic tremors of the earth made the Archmage alarmed. "Retreat! Retreat to the center of the city — no, retreat to the final defense line!" The First Voidwalker shouted, after which he raised his staff to activate the emergency teleportation portals set up by the Voidwalkers at different points in the city. The Archmage's spell also caused the city's bell to begin tolling. 

When everyone in Arfin City heard the tolls of the city bell, they glanced at each other in dismay. They quickly abandoned their posts and fled to the nearest teleportation portal, headed to the rendezvous point. 

This left the believers free to scale the city walls, like a colony of ants assaulting a jar of sugar. The believers that scaled the wall did not chase the city guards; instead, they opened the city gate for other believers to charge in.
