Swamped

Your first thought is not to get involved and just focus on your goal. But the metal door blocking the room you'd be heading to isn't exactly welcoming, and even if you figure out how to get in, you've got no idea how the place works. That's before considering the possibility that someone might rope you into the fight if you get noticed.

Still, you can at least take a closer look at the door. You duck down and crawl over to it as best as you can.

And you can't see any hinges. Or even any gap between the door itself and the frame. It's like a solid block of metal. No keyhole, either.

Perhaps it only opens from the inside... well, you don't remember seeing anything on the inside that would suggest that. So now you're just lost.

This might be easier if you could get ahold of whoever contacted you, but they're most likely involved in this fight.

Or... are they? It feels like there's at least two factions here, and your contact's messages gave the distinct impression they were working alone. It's also hard to get a read on the situation from here, because everyone seems more interested in fighting than talking.

Wait. What's that guard who ran down here ahead of you doing?
