This dark a host of Drow from Traensyr did meet your Watch at the gates and demand a tribute of 100 slaves be given to their new matron mother.
The True Watch said NO, while the rebels cowered in their hidden holes.
Your True Watch, as it has done many times before, fought to defend you all. Many Watchmen were killed before the Drow made clear they are returning in 24 hours.
We cannot fight them off
Our numbers are decimated and our ranks thinned thanks to the cowardly acts of the rebellion. They battle us, cutting the throats of our Watchmen at their posts when they try only to do a job and feed their families. They are content to bring this city to the brink of oblivion. They are close to success. Our Watch is not strong enough to protect you from enemies within and without. Now, after so many years of warding you from this darkness, we must make a plea to you.
50 Citizens with courage and heart are needed to volunteer to offer themselves up to the Drow. These people and their service will not go unrewarded. The sum of 2,000 gold will be paid to the families of these volunteers. To do this sacrifice is to ensure your family is fed and well during these troubling times. To do this sacrifice is to provide for your loved ones.
Help protect your city and provide for your family. Show yourself a true Sanctuarian by presenting yourself to The Watch House and offering to do this noble thing. Do it so countless others need not suffer worse fates when the Drow return.
-Sergeant Coronado, Sanctuary Watch
