"Halt!" One of the guards in front of the Citadel's entrance raised his spear towards George.
"I work for Sir Michael, my name is George Sterling." He introduced himself before handing the guard the identification papers.
The guard did not respond and quickly took the paper before walking inside the gate reading the whole thing and making sure that the identification papers were authentic.
"Let him in!" The guard shouted, two other guards unlocked the second gate entrance, allowing George and Devlin to enter.
The guard got out of his outpost and followed the both of them, "Who do you want to meet?" They asked.
"This guy…" He replied, handing the newspaper to the guard.
The guard nodded as he looked at the image, "Ives? Why would you want to meet him?"
"For investigation purposes, we think he might be involved with the Empire Bank case."
