Guards poured into the dungeon corridor within minutes of the alarm sounding, their heavy boots pounding against stone as they converged from multiple directions at once. Nolan met the first wave head-on, his sword flashing in the dim torchlight as he cut down guard after guard, buying precious time for the others still working to free the frightened children."Move!" Elmund shouted, positioning himself beside Nolan to hold the narrow entrance while Gianna and the other soldiers worked frantically behind them.Gianna set the crying infant down carefully in a corner she hoped was safely out of the path of the fighting, then rushed toward the remaining children still huddled fearfully against the far wall. "We're getting you out of here," she said, forcing her voice to remain steady despite the chaos erupting around them.
