"No, I'm not. I swear." He said nervously.

"I'm druidic," Raven said, sitting down. "Why won't she let you into the city?"

"She's paranoid as all hell." He said. He hesitantly picked up the dead rat and went to the back of his cave, where there was a small fire pit that had long since borned out. He grabbed some rocks and started working on trying to set a fire. "Like I said, very few people get in, and absolutely no one leaves once they're there. She won't let them."

"Yeah, but she obviously lets some people in, doesn't she? Why not you?" Raven asked.

He shrugged. "If I knew that, I would change whatever I'm doing so that she would let me in. As brutal and controlling as she is, it's that or live out of a cave."

"Well." Ryan glanced towards the bottom of the cliff again. "You aren't dead, so that's something. Did you just, what, go up and knock on the doors?"

"Yeah. She makes some of her people keep watch on top of the walls twenty-four seven, so by the time you actually make it to the doors, she's usually outside. I've only ever seen her reject people or straight up attack them, but supposedly she's let people in before. I wouldn't have made the journey if there was no chance."

He named the city that they lived in. "I know it's pretty far. I just wanted to be left alone."
"Why'd you leave?" Amy asked, but the man didn't answer.

"How far?" Raven asked, eyes lighting up a bit with interest at how far they'd been pulled.

"What do you mean 'how far', I walked from there to Forsvar."

"Well, we didn't. So how far?" Raven asked.

He shook his head. "Please stop asking me these riddles. I don't know, it was two or three days of walking. Have't you ever seen a map?"

"Not a current one," Raven responded, shrugging. He stood up again and dusted himself off, glancing towards his friends. "What now?"

"Well, here's my thinking." Amy said, and dropped her voice lower. "If this woman - Lady Skye - will kill people outside of her city without a thought, what will she do to people she actually has control over?"
