The sounds of metal colliding stone ring out of the cave as the excavators dig and pick at the well underneath the castle. Water sprang from the deep holes formed around the bricks, and eventually gushed from where the bricks once were. Eventually, all the contents of the well were freed the mix with this dirt underfoot, leaving begins both slick clay and mud, and a large hole, big enough for a Cavy to enter.
Ronaldo called to his four most trusted spies, and told them of their mission. "Now, mi little ones, listen and hear. Your first priority is to find the castle's gate, and open it up for Hawkwood and his troops. Once you've done that, then you are free to steal all the gold and jewelry that you can carry. La Gloria de Cavia!" "La Gloria de Cavia!" Repeated the Cavy to Ronaldo, before they went to prepare.
Clad in dark cloth and leather, and armed with the necessary tools, they stood before the well, the tension thick enough to cut with a knife. They forced themselves, ready or not, out to the well proper, where they were pelted with heavy rain. Taking out picks and readying their toe knives, they began their treacherous ascent upwards, and after several painstaking minutes and near falls, they finally made their way to the lip.
One of them scanned the surroundings, to find the city utterly desolate, with no sign of life showing whatsoever, and only faint speech in the distance. Assured of their safety, they jump out of the well, and hear noises coming from two directions. The Cavy split into groups of two, and part ways from the well.

The Cavy that traveled east discovered the gate, heavily guarded by patrols, archers, and a couple of Armatai. They scanned the environment, looking for any chance to pass through unseen and open the gate. Unfortunately, the patrols frequently cross with each other, and the guards are highly alert to the slightest disturbance, making traditional stealth impossible. What they did discover, was an unorthodox opportunity.
Though the gate is heavily guarded, there is an Armatai nearby, and it's in idle mode. Also, there is a blindspot that lasts for several seconds, that can be capitalized upon if they're particularly quick.
And being Cavy, they are about the quickest they can possibly be.
Scurrying as quick as they can, the Cavy quickly climbed the colossus, and made it to the hatch in record time, and with nearly no time to spare, they opened the hatch, and jumped in with one smooth motion, closing the hatch just as soon as the Armatai was once again in a guard's notice. The loud sound of it closing startled the guard, but he thought little of it, and continued his patrol.
Now at the controls, the Cavy first thought of overloading the core, causing the Armatai to meltdown and draw all attention to it, so that they could open the gate without notice. Looking at the core however, their minds soon changed.
The machine sprang to life as the Cavy aimed it towards the gate, and then they charged with a battlecry heard across all the city and the camp outside. "LA GLORIA DE HAWKWOOD!!!"

The Cavy came across a young woman and a boy on horseback riding. Jumping from shadow to shadow and eavesdropping, they kept eye on their actions and behavior. They then heard a battlecry in the far distance. "LA GLORIA DE HAWKWOOD!!!"
The skirmish for the castle has begun.
