Death Knight - Blows out city gate

As Scarma ground her teeth, she heard a huge boom come from the gates. It sounded like a battering ram.

***

The gate was a single swinging door, a simple thing fashioned from logs. The kind of rustic gate a fishing village should have but definitely doing them very little good now.

A hit from a battering ram would quickly bust the hinges, and there was nothing to replace it, so all they’d been able to do was hammer more planks across it, sealing the entrance tight. As a result, the gate was twice as thick as usual.

And she could hear the thud of thunderous blows raining down on the other side.

“How strong—?”

There was a crack. It was the sound of wood splintering. Given the time between the blows, she deduced the shield bearer was backing off a bit before tackling the gate again.

***

Just as most of the buffs were done, the gate reached its limit and fell inward with a crash.
