Well, with the sounds of fighting Torrens doesn't need to wait for any signal now. If he started an absolute inferno on the outskirts of the city I'd imagine that he could still draw some attention as he was told to do. The guards rallying together would probably go that way first thinking that the biggest threat is there.

Of course, he and Athinar can say all of this IC and try to blame any failures on Balotiss.
