Outer City of Rathkin.

The entire Syndicate **** crushes through the outer city of Rathkin, easily clearing what little warriors were even trying to defend it. You thought it seemed a little less then normal as you figured that they would at least have many more patrols and random warriors guarding certain sections. Then you think about the King and how he most likely would gladly give up all the peasants, slaves, tradesman and random civilians as long as he defended the inner city for his kingdom. As long as his royalty are safe and he stays in power why care about the rest of the people.

Working your way through the Outer City of Rathkin you are surprised as you still only encounter a few warriors. A handful fight against you and your warriors but many also just drop their weapons and return inside their houses, scared for their lives. You continue to walk through out the random pathways and alleys, looking in buildings, watching every angle and just being as cautious as you can. It isn't long before you end up ditching your tiger, telling her to go back to the entrance so you can walk some of the tighter pathways of the outer city of Rathkin. Just thinking that maybe they are setting up traps in certain chokes, setting up traps to hopefully catch you off guard and kill you easily.

Again, it isn't long before you continue to patrol around the outer city of Rathkin, looking for warriors, looking for people that want to kill you. Without any luck, you don't find anyone else. The outer city of Rathkin is completely shut down.

"Not much of a war, eh?" A Sunrider behind you lets out.

"Yeah, pretty confusing." you reply "Although this just means their inner city will probably be extremely heavily defended. It's going to be tough to break into that..." you grumble out.

If push came to shove, you could just hold out in the outer city and just wait, starving out the entire Rathkin population of the inner city but that would take a long time where you would just have to sit and wait. You also had no idea how much supplies they had inside, especially if they prepared ahead of time. You had to break the gate of the Inner City. You just had too!

"Such stupid people..." you grumble to yourself as you continue to hold both your weapons, walking the streets of the outer city of Rathkin. It made you remember of the five years you stayed in Rathkin. The five years you wandered around, trained and just lived, in hopes of finding your sister.

"Fuck Rathkin..." you're getting more pissed off as you still don't see any warriors in the outer city, how Rathkin and their King doesn't give a shit about their civilians. They will give them all up, let them all die in war as long as they can defend their god damn royalty. Most other kingdoms would probably slaughter all these defensively civilians and do even worse to their women and children. Hell, probably some of my warriors are still doing that...hopefully not though.

Turning another corner and looking off into the distance, still nothing. No warriors. No civilians. Nothing. "Stupid..." you slash your short sword against the wall, causing a gash to appear into the wooden structure "Fuck Rathkin." you curse under your breath. "They give up their entire outer city, all their people, their tradesman, their women, their kids!" you rage "Just so they can defend the couple of high class royals...damn them!" you shout.

You move between the alleyways again, looking for more and more warriors and again, you find nothing. "This will be tough..." you think to yourself "If they really brought their entire army to the inner city...especially with that one lone bridge as the only way in..." you let out a deep breath "We could lose a lot of warriors..." you shake your head back and forth letting loose a few more disgruntled moans.
