"This might be why we were pulled here," Ryan said. "Assuming it wasn't random chance, we did just beat another dictator."

Natalia nodded. "We can stop anything like that from happening again." She agreed.

"Yeah. Except how are we actually going to do that here? We had allies. Here we probably can't even get into the city," Ryan pointed out.

"Well, she comes out when people get close, right?" Amy speculated.
"Those walls have gotta be concrete or something." Natalia said. "To be strong enough to withstand repeated sieges. Concrete is reinforced with metal wiring inside. It'd take me a really fucking long time, but given enough time I could absolutely bring that wall down myself."

"How long are we talking here?" Ryan asked. "Hours or days or?"

"Depends on the thickness of the wall." Natalia admitted. "But definitely at least a couple hours."

"Alright. We'd need a way for you to get close enough then. If it's being watched constantly, you won't just be able to get in close," Ryan pointed out.

"Right, so we'd still need some kind of distraction." Natalia said. Except-" She raised her voice so the man cooking the rat at the back of the cave could hear. "Has that city always been walled, or did this Lady Skye woman put the wall up?"
"No, she had her people build the wall." He answered.
"Good. Okay, yeah, distraction."

"What difference does that make?" Raven asked, confused.

"Construction materials." Natalia said. "The reason I can bring it down is because today, everything's got metal in it. Even concrete has steel reinforcing it on the inside. Super old walls are made of stone or brick or something, and I can't do shit with those."

Raven nodded. "We built from stone and wood, back home," he supplied.
"We'll have to see how many guards are on top of the wall," Ryan said.

"We'll have yto do that without getting close enough for them to see us, or they'll call Lady Skye out to attack us." Amy nodded.

"Yeah. I'm just hoping it isn't many, or I don't know what we'll do as a distraction," Ryan said.

Amy nodded. "I'd offer to use my powers, but my range is still relatively short and we'd have to get just as close. I'm not sure how we'll do it."

"Then we'll just have to do what we can and assume a lot," Ryan said, sighing. "I don't know how we'll make any distraction big enough to get Natalia in close without getting close ourselves."
