make our way directly to the Square t

towards the outer city catching sight of
a witch mounted on a broomstick casting
spells against the barrier producing
only ripples in vain the distant clamor
of shouts screams and clashing weapons

distinct howls of the Netherworld

to linger they merely dispatched the
Troublesome monsters before departing
within the 50m radius surrounding the
altar there were no infernal creatures
