As Kuklo and Cardina take it in and reflect what may happen outside the Wall, they hear a disturbance from one of the onlookers. The man breaks down and asks them to avenge his family who were killed by Mammon in the rampage fifteen years prior; Kuklo helps him up and promises they will. This rallies the other residents and they cheer on the soldiers as they reach the gate. Carlo orders the gate opened and the soldiers ride out, beginning the expedition.
