At the top of the stairs, guarding the massive, ornately carved double doors giving entry to the city hall, were a group of knights armored from head to toe in shining gold. They were not superhumanly built like the Northmen or Blood Legionnaires, nor did they seem to exude the kind of primal, feral strength that the southern beastmen had.
In fact, they did not seem to have the iron will and robotic discipline that the blood legionnaires had either. That was to say, the knights were not untrained. Actually, far from it.
Li stepped up to the double doors, and the knights immediately reacted. They stared at Li with the poise of soldiers used to guarding. They had that stiff-postured ability to somehow pay attention to you while staring straight ahead to look as intimidating as possible.
