3. Open Cashelore's gates

You must get inside the southern part of the fortress, destroy the lock on the gate and open it. To minimize the amount of open combat, and if you are lucky avoid it completely, you can use the tower entrance which is located on the southeast side of the fortress. To get to the tower you only need to destroy the weak wooden door. Climb the ladder inside the tower and then climb down or jump down into the interior of the walls.You can even not enter the tower just climb through the hole in the wall.

Open Cashelore's gates

Then, being careful and silently eliminating the guards patrolling inside the wall, proceed to the opening near the gate, jump through this opening, hide in the haystack and at the right moment assassinate the soldier by the gate. Then quickly destroy the lock and open the gate. Flann and the others will already be waiting on the other side and the attack will begin.
