Tell the truth or deceive the young guard
Nearby you will notice a young guard who looks too menacing for Serena, which is why she is afraid to approach him personally. Try to persuade the guard to let the heroes through, and during the conversation decide:
- Tell the truth - the man will be worried about the girl's problem. Despite the titan's long-standing silence, he will agree, asking to return the next day at the gate hour, when there will be few people here.
- Try to deceive him - lie that she is the granddaughter of Kenida (an elder in the Senate), a goldsmith from foreign lands, or thief Cifer. In the last option, add as an excuse that the demigoddess is only eight years old or that she weighed more before. The guard will not believe any of this, which is why you will eventually have to explain yourself by telling the truth.
