So it was just an hour and two cups of tea later when the RMS Dragon Fire descended into Amritsar. It was easy to pinpoint the Golden Temple from the smoke billowing out of the surrounding buildings. "No point in sneaking in." The Grand Arbiter observed. Drawing closer, the sounds of battle were easily heard. As they passed overhead, the horrific scene was laid out before them. Although the undead hoards of the Caffeinatti had seized the outer buildings, the temple itself sat within a manmade lake, only accessed by a narrow bridge. Sikh warriors had been valiantly holding this bridge for hours, as was witnessed by the blood that covered the bridge and dripped into the pool.
The RMS Dragon Fire landed in the courtyard outside the temple complex and the crew, along with Madam Askew's Entourage, poured out, the Madam herself leading the charge, saber in one hand and a blaster in the other. "For the Queen and Saint George! Die you saurian savages!" She yelled at the dinosaurs that had surrounded the cruiser as it had landed. They might have been mindless dead, but some sense of self-preservation made them retreat from the fearsome sight before them. It was fortunate that the larger dinosaurs were in the fields south of the city to destroy the clippers, and only the smaller ones were left here to attack the temple. However, that did mean the presence of some testy Velociraptors, who were still quick enough to cause trouble for the human attackers.
