Extend the Story - Add a Room

You could only see the alleyway to the right from the rooftops so you decided that this alleyway would be most suited for a possible escape if, and when you complete your mission in the Palace.

You start heading down it and realise that the assessments of the alleyways from the rooftops were correct. There isn't a soul to be seen down here and every house is abandoned because of the markets which will give you an advantage over the guards hopefully.
Youcontinue down the alleyway taking note of all the markings and warnings written on the walls as well as where all the doors and windows are located on all the buildings, and assessing which houses will be easier to access.
You reach the end of the alleyway and are met by a brick wall.
"It's high," you say to yourself.

You turn around to leave the alleyway, but 5 men all wielding swords of all different shapes and sizes start heading to your direction.
Think quick. What would your master have you do? defend yourself, or stay and fight? Of course, your master isn't here so it's your decision?

Flee to survive another day
