Do Not Let Them Open the Door
Do Not Let Them Open the Door
Read Aloud
Take cover as four scavengers spill from The Falling Street, raising broken spears, cleavers, and lengths of iron rail. Two robed cultists hammer on The Unburied Door and shout that the people inside owe a debt. The attackers spread through Market and Barracks, using toppled stalls as cover while dust rains from the ruined walls.

Battlefield Zones
A 25-foot stretch of sunken street. Broken paving stones count as difficult terrain, and the old storm drain drops 5 feet into darkness.
A roofless square where stalls and barracks once shared one wall. Three toppled stalls provide half cover.
A ruined stone doorway marked with a warning that locals kept repainting for a century: DO NOT OPEN. The door is barred from within.
Terrain Levers
- Kick loose masonry from the upper wall to create difficult terrain in one 10-foot square.
- Cut the hanging market awning to block sight through the street.
- Shove a cracked statue into the alley entrance, sealing or opening the route.
