<Enter from Jovial Inn>
Silas pokes his head into the workshop. Men worked busily carrying beam, constructing scaffolding, and building a giant cross bow. "Woah!" Silas took in the enormity of the weapon. Approaching a workman he asked, "What is this for? Is Medan involved with a war I don't know about?" The last question was hopeful. War meant opportunities to make some gold.

"I can't comment on that," he said, "all I do is follow orders." Clearly proud of their work, however, he did introduce them to what they were doing. "These are ballistae," he said with a smile. "Most powerful weapon in Medan!"

"Amazing. Sounds like I can't ask any questions though." Silas waved so long and left the workshop.

Next to the the siege workshop was erected a giant ballistae. The so called Dragon Slayer, was able to launch shrapnel far beyond the city walls. Giant bolts would go even further, but where hard to aim. The major week side to the Dragon slayer was the necessity to open the gate in order to load it.
Within the workshop engineers were hard at work constructing the newly ordered arrow and pitch protection roofs.
