The Black Shingle Fiasco

[YossarianLives]

Together with the soldiers, you tramp back into the tower while Eric descends the steps to join the conversation. At the ramparts, the crossbowmen remain on guard. Frowning, Ygor grunts his agreement to Avita's first statement. "Our only option may be to barricade the door, but I don't know what we'd use. I'm afraid no one in my squad has the right skills or tools for the job."

Everyone listens to Avita intently, and nods solemnly. "Do what's necessary, says Ygor, his frown deepening, "but under no circumstances will you put my soldiers at risk. There's enough danger out here without our allies trying to do us in."

Keeping a close eye on the door and nearby streets, the other soldiers settle down and wait.
