Aliza could understand the southern earthquake being dispelled for the sake of avoiding a rockslide, at the very least.
But overall... This essentially confirmed that the walls themselves likely weren't important. Or at least not so important that whatever damage an earthquake-

-threats near the eastern and western walls were simply sturdier, and not outright unimportant... So there still wasn't a definite 'safe' point to start the siege when the time comes. Just one particular point that /might/ be more crucial and worth ruining.
It was time to start-
