Meanwhile, at the gatehouse, Nidhogg cautiously advances until he is standing under the raised portcullis of the arch, looking through a short tunnel some dozen yards long and perhaps a head over Man height at its highest (not that the low ceiling would bother a Dwarf).
Beyond the tunnel he can see one side of a smallish courtyard. It is cobbled, but muddy and somewhat overgrown with knee high grasses, rather like a long untended garden. Beyond that is another, similar gate arch which leads on the bridge... but that tunnel is blocked by a lowered portcullis.
The cold wind moans as it rushes momentarily through the tunnel before Nidhogg, before settling to a dissatisfied quiet...
What now?
