You wait patiently as the princess takes charge and hands out orders. Eventually, someone gives you a spear and gestures for you to follow them. You head for the sound of the original explosion.
You pass women and young children rushing past you, but all of the men are remaining to fight, even elders. The fighting you witness is fierce. Scores of lizards pour through the tunnel opening, including a few that are swollen and dead. When the guards see these, they throw their spear and run. Most of the time, when a spear hits, nothing happens, but occasionally one will explode. You realize the dead lizards a being used as bombs to destroy the city!
Your group encounters several masses of lizards that broke through the lines and are now pursuing people fleeing their homes. The other men furiously engage, and almost immediately the lizards begin to pull back. The continue to press their advantage, and you find yourself almost unnecessary. Every time you stab at one, it scampers away. This behavior is different from the first one you saw back with the princess in the tunnel earlier.
