On the hill, the Feder Archers of the Second Corps tripled the number of sentries, their bows held at the ready. Not even a mouse could hope to escape their sharp eyes.
The people of High Cliff Castle didn't know what was happening, but they keenly sensed that something was amiss. They hurried back to their wooden cabins, holding their children close. Through the windows, pairs of nervous eyes could be seen peering out.

As for the Trolls and Giants, as well as the Goblin and Kobold slaves, they were all placed downwind at the foot of the hill.
In contrast to the nervous tension on the hill, these High Cliff Castle slaves, who had not received any news, continued with their usual work.
