The next day, all of Southlake City was on high alert.

Desmond, the commander of Southlake City, knew that Caspian was coming. He had to get everything ready.

The roads that Caspian would take were all cordoned off, and the surrounding houses had been searched. All the occupants had been investigated too, just in case there were enemy spies hidden among them.
