[QUOTE="Relique du Madde, post: 5380028, member: 42169"] On your journey towards [I]Sardos gate[/I] you are able to piece together some various pieces of information about the phantom gate. [I]Sardos Gate[/I] is located in the South West quadrant of the city-state's Wall, in a section of the city that was abandoned years ago after a fire gutted the region. Since then, the region has fallen into neglect; however, recently Aeaxeos and a group of watchmen were briefly stationed there to disrupt a small band of dissidents who tried to establish own private kingdom from the sector's ashes. With a weary eye, the caravan snaked its way through the abandoned streets while half expecting an ambush every time the path brought the crawlers between the ruined shell of a warehouse that rested in the shadows of a corroded factory, or between two large darkened seemingly vacant buildings. Luckily, that ambush never occurred since the city's Watchmen were too busy fighting back the chaos erupted after the caravan escaped the road block. Then, after what seemed like an hour, the caravan reached an area consisting of rows upon rows of burnt-out, decrepit buildings. This was where you finally caught a glance of the Victoria Town's massive walls which easily dwarfed the crawlers the group rode upon. With the wall in clear view, the caravan picked up speed as it headed towards a section of wall that had fallen into ruin and collapsed. You immediately recognized this section as being [I]Sardos Gate[/I]. Many of the buildings that line on the streets leading towards the phantom gate appear to have been purposely collapsed to create a wall of wreckage in a feeble attempt to block vehicular access to the wall's gap. However, the Union's plan was unsuccessful since one of the demolished buildings fell in an unintended direction, necessitating for one of the streets to be blocked off by multiple rows of concrete barriers that were easily shoved aside using the lifters and the metal beast. Once the final barrier was cleared, and the machinery secured, the caravan passed through the gap and vacated the city-state.
