You greet the leiutentant-in charge at the narrow doorway that is guardhouse beside the great iron portcullis.
Complain of your weary feet, citing familiar contracts to the lord of the house, for the purposes of entry.
Demand that your complaints be heard by the lord of the house.
Attempt to sneak your way in.
Speak at length to the guard, with questions as to his nature and the origins of the powers that shape both your lives.
