  1. 00:00: Julian Halts the Artillery Strike

    Julian climbs the ramparts and overrides an active strike order backed by the High Seal. He refuses to burn the quarantine zone. Instead, he orders the city guards to arrest anyone who touches the artillery triggers.

  2. 00:18: Confronting the Everhart Council

    Maeve Calder enters the council room alongside the swordswoman. She places a seized bottle on the table before the seated leaders. Maeve tells the assembly that the medicine was chemically altered and deliberately tested on vulnerable poor citizens.

  3. 00:33: Testing Lord Aldren's Tonic

    Patriarch Aldren Everhart walks inside and questions Julian about the disturbance. Maeve samples the liquid from Aldren's personal drink flask. She realizes the council members have been drinking the exact same tainted concoction that poisoned the lower district.

    The tainted medicine suddenly takes hold of Aldren. His eyes turn solid white, and he lunges across the room to choke Julian violently. Maeve throws rat powder into the patriarch's face to incapacitate him and free Julian from his grasp.

  5. 01:00: A Warning and a Secret

    Aldren catches his breath on the floor. He hands Julian a key to Warehouse Seven and sends him to gather evidence. Aldren whispers that Julian is not an Everlast, while rival councilor Garrick eavesdrops outside the doorway.
