Tendak Lightbringer, Randir Urtang, Thanatos, the Reaper, and Cassius the Quick arrive in the dirty square, some 50 feet to a side and surrounded by the ramshackle buildings of the Hive, which sits before the Tower Basalt. Weness has departed their company to confront the Guvners, leaving the Bloods of Sigil to confront two dozen Hardheads and Azaziel, the late sorcerer Metatron's archnemesis. The unfriendly faces of the Hive's residents crowd windows and doorways, watching the unfolding drama with great eagerness.
The Hardheads have assembled themselves in a loose mob around the doors to the Tower Basalt, between the Bloods and Azaziel. Azaziel, bald head glistening in the gray light, stands directly before the doors. He raises both heads above his head.
"By all the hoary hosts of Hecate, I command thee: Open!"
And his hands slam into the Tower's stout double-doors, but to no avail.
"We got company, boss," one of the Hardheads says, jerking a thumb toward the Bloods.
