Caroline looked up at Gwen, blinking away her headache. "Don't worry about me, Gwen, I'm fine. You should get somewhere safe, I'm sure you're exhausted." She pushed herself up off the ground, drawing her rapier. Her personal weapon was made differently than normal rapiers, having a broader blade and a wider crossguard. As the strength returned to her limbs, she turned to look over the wall, her glare almost matching her mother's. "I'm going with you." she said suddenly, talking to Henry. "I'm going lead some of those men to the gates of hell personally." Without being called, Spark jumped toward her, ready to lend her his power.

Elizabeth returned to the north wall, having confirmed that the only group gathered outside the gates was to the north. She raised an eyebrow at the lines of clay soldiers now standing in front, but said nothing. Catching up with the queen, she spoke softly. "As far as I can tell, their force is gathered here. Either they're extremely confident that they can take us all at once, or there's something more going on. Considering recent events, I think this is supposed to be a distraction for something else. Until we know what that might be, I'm staying with you, and I'll listen to no arguments. I already lost you once, I won't lose you for good this time."
