The violent atmosphere surrounding Slovechnia's capitol city made it impossible to land anywhere nearby without the plane being in danger of being attacked. Instead, the Knights arrived last week several cities away, and were met there by a few Knights who had remained stationed in the country to assist with the refugee movement. Over the past seven days, they've helped transport the team to the capitol, so that they might avoid roadblocks, government checkpoints, et cetera. There hasn't been a great deal of comfort provided on the trip, and reports given from the city of Milosogoraht have been less than promising.
It's probably no surprise, therefore, when they finally reach the city, that there appears to be some kind of violent protest going on in the streets. Traveling in the back of an armored van, it's possible to look out through slits in the side and see the huge crowds, yelling in Slovechnian, chanting and screaming, clutching children to their side. The city is caked in snow, and most people don't seem to be wearing clothing sufficient to protect them from the elements. A couple men in army jackets stand on top of crates with megaphones, seeming to rouse up further unrest with whatever words they're shouting. The truck grumbles through at a careful pace, not wanting to run over anyone in the crowded streets by accident. The goal is to get them as close to the castle as possible - which unfortunately rests at the top of an incredibly steeply inclined path clogged with members of the angry mob.
Koraith opens the window to the cab of the truck, mumbling to the driver to not stop the vehicle, no matter what. Which is all well and good until objects start pelting the side of it - followed quickly by the sounds of actual bodies hurling up against the side of the very slow moving truck.
"They're going to breach," Koraith says, his voice grim but determined. "Riddick, Fredrick, Tia... if you would be so kind as to try to provide us the cover necessary to reach the castle gates?"
