You notice that he a death grip on a small locket worn around his neck. Maybe some kind of lucky charm?

The fake sergeant's eyes narrow, and he steps so close the watchman can feel his breath on his face. "I think you skipped training one time too many. When a sergeant tells you to 'move it', you do so. You do not tell them to lead you around like a small child!"

I can barely repress throwing some Full Metal Jacket quotes in there

He takes off down the hall, makes it about five steps, then stops.
"Sir.. uh, I d..don't know the w..w..way, sir."

Well, a beat cop not knowing much about the cells was reasonably compatible with my assumptions. But if someone on guard duty inside the Fortress doesn't know how to get there it can't be as simple as 'main building --> stairs down --> cells'. Either they're in a completely different place, the stairs are hidden or there are no stairs in the first place and you go underground somehow else.
I need some time to think now how to make it past this road bump.

Well, you did specify a "lone watchman of lower rank". Apparently, this one was lower rank enough that he hasn't been posted on prisoner duty. Seriously though, I randomly rolled to see who you encountered and what he knew. I'm not just trying to screw you.

oh, I didn't think you were putting obstacles in my way just for the hell of it. It's just it seems now rather improbable the L building has stairs leading down. I can see a new guy never having prison duty, never witnessing a prisoner transport, never hearing others who do know mention it, and not being informed where the cells are so he knows where to go if there is a general alarm or incident, though the latter seems a bad idea to me. But, failing to note the presence of stairs? I have to assume they are in a different building, or the cells don't have a physical entrance in the first place(admittedly makes decent security, and if they can afford +1 gear for everyone they can afford short-range magical transport).
Or maybe he saw the stairs, but isn't sure they lead to the cells...

Or maybe they're behind one of the numerous doors down one of the numerous hallways off of the main hallway. But, then again, maybe not.

"You don't know the way", Sedrach hisses, not having to feign the anger. "So if there ever is an incident or alarm at the cells, you're useless unless led by the hand because you don't. Know. The. Way. Get out of my eyes now before I overstep the rights of my rank and better hope I forget about this."
Spoiler
I will look for another watchman of lower rank than sergeant and try the same thing again... This time I buff with GotA when out of sight. Bluff - (1d20+24)[30]

You make your bluff attempt, and the guard looks around confused.
"I... don't hear the alarm. What kind of trouble?"

"A watchman on patrol in South Market vanished. It's not conclusive, but I have reason to suspect a link to a prisoner. If we act fast we might learn something that helps in saving our man."
Spoiler
I looked at his papers, what was his name and rank?

"Right, so shouldn't you be at the cells asking for help instead of all the way over here? This just doesn't make any sense."

"I'm here because I want an extra man at the cells. And you better remember I outrank you. So you either do as I say, or file a complaint with my superior because you think my command to be against regulations. Choose fast or we're gonna have a problem..."

Intimidate - (1d20+5)[11] *cross fingers*
bother... bad skill rolls here

"Something's not right here. I don't care who you think you are, this isn't how things are done. You better start giving me some straight answers."
He reaches for his sword.

"As you wish. Perhaps you will regret your suspicivity when it gets you killed." Wait, is that a word? Oh well, too late for regrets. His arms come forth, ready to rip into the perceptive watchman.

He draws his sword, takes a step forward, and full attacks you, hitting twice.

He kicks out at your legs, attempting to trip you. Make a Str check.

Knocking your feet from under you, he swings his sword down hard with both hands, connecting with you just as you slam into the floor.

Improved trip, no AoO. Rolled an 18 before modifiers.
+3 Str, two-handed, Power Attack for 3.

Your first and third claw attacks hit on your first attack round, while your second and third hit on the second round.
The guard takes a 5ft step back from you, pulls a small, glowing something from his belt and pops it in his mouth. The wounds you have opened on him begin to close.

He easily pushes you to the ground, following up with two hard slashes made in silent determination. Only one hits.
(1d8+10)[13]
He again takes a 5ft step back. His back is now to a wall.

Your attack opens up a brutal gash is his side, causing him to gasp and cough. His attacks miss you.
