Strife alarm

The alarms in Strife are simply a notice for enemies. When an alarm goes off in town, all the shopkeepers and such will be protected by a white wall and all the Acolytes will be alerted and will attack you. Wherever an alarm goes off, the enemies will know of your presence and attack. Some enemies do not obey the alarm and attack when they see you. Most others, like Acolytes, will obey.
