Nope. Parson's order was "Tower down! Tunnels down! Wreck everything but the dungeon! Do your worst." and that led to the FoxMUD guy getting in so easily. Sizemore: "We're a Level 1 city now, Warlord! We're so porous, anyone can walk in." That implies to me that the tower is not the entirety of a city's levels, albeit a potentially large percentage of them. Agreed on the portal still being there, which of course invalidates my entire confusion to begin with.
