* When approaching the Ramparts, Aradin and his fellow adventurers will be running for the gates, chased by Goblins. [[Wyll]] appears to help fight. | |||
* After the fight, several tieflings will be processing the death of [[Kanon]]. If you head there immediately, you may be able to speak to his sister [[Arka]] but she leaves for the [[Makeshift Prison]] soon after his death. Other tieflings will come to grieve too. Speak to any them to enact a cutscene. | |||
* [[Aradin]] and [[Zevlor]] will get into an argument, which may come to blows unless the player intervenes. Aradin's location might vary depending on this outcome. | |||
* A [[bugbear]] [[assassin]] is headed for [[Nadira]] on the hill to the east of the ramparts. | |||
* Looking through the telescope by Nadira to see the dragon. | |||
