Bab 624: Into The City 2 (Ch.625)

Neveah slowed her horse to a trot, her eyes wide with disbelief. She had thought they would need to ride some distance from Scabbard Tower into the city, 

However the very moment their mounts were but a short distance from the gates of Scabbard tower, Neveah and her group already met the first signs of unrest in the city of Scabbard.

"Open the city gates!" A burly male called out.

"Let us out! Do you intend for us all to die here?! Great Lord, have mercy!" A young woman cried in a loud, devastated tone.

Many more of such loud yells and calls echoed for a long distance and they had not been riding for so long when Neveah picked up on traces of it.

Neveah quickly lifted a hand to halt the group from advancing any further.

"Slow down...there is a crowd in the path far up ahead, right after the bend." Neveah said quietly.

"Veah, you cannot let them see you." Everon said quickly.
