Daithi took a deep breath, and listened only to the sound of the blood rushing through his ears. He gripped Dawnbreaker tightly in both hands, and pushed the door open to outside.

The seven necromancers, all suited up in some kind of Ebony armor, and whose robes had some dashes of red, alluding to eliteness, and the one bone colossus stood at the ready.

Kay and Dacian had just vanished into the secret passage, so now was the time to make his mouth.

Daithi walked out onto the stairs, and Dawnbreaker clattered to the ground, thoroughly surprising the necromancers. Maybe they thought he was surrendering. Good. They didn’t know him. And the element of surprise never hurt.

Daithi casually walked down the steps and, mid-way, leaped off, at a necromancer. He landed just in front of the man, jabbed him in the throat, which caused the necromancer to bend over to gasp for air. Daithi gripped the gagging necromancer’s shoulders, and flipped over him. His momentum launched the necromancer, and Daithi threw the necromancer over his head, and into a second necromancer. In short, both were thoroughly surprised. Daithi leaped at the two intertwined humans, and smashed a fist into each of their heads, using the ground to prevent them from being moving targets.

The remaining five converged on him, and Daithi was a whirlwind of blows. He leaped at one, bashing his hand into the man’s forehead, and immediately spun into a second, kicking out with both heels into the man’s chest, knocking him flat on his back. Daithi ended up standing onto of that one, and used him as a springboard to jump at a third. Daithi brought up his knee into a third’s chin, hard, and thought he could hear the necromancer’s teeth crack. He landed with his legs on the man’s shoulder, wrapped them around his neck, and spun around, knocked both he and the mage to the ground. Daithi recovered. The necromancer did not.

The final necromancer came at Daithi, and blasted a firebolt at the Bosmer. It collided with his Mithril chest plate, leaving a nice-sized scorch mark. Daithi immediately advanced on the mage, and punched him across the face, causing the man’s head to careen to the side, and he collapsed to the ground.

Dacian turned and looked up at the Colossus, which glowered down at him. The behemoth arched it’s fist through the air and smashed a closed down at Daithi, but he had already rolled away. He reached around to his back and pulled his grapple hook free, giving the rope plenty of slack. He rolled in opposite direction avoid a second blow, and then sprinted at the colossus. He juked and jived around blows, and finally flipped over a kick, to land on the things knee, he ran up the monster’s leg, hooking a hand in the monster’s exposed ribs, and launching himself up into the air to attack his enemy’s face. He arced the grapple hook through the air, and hooked it right in the colossus’ eye socket. Bull’s eye.   Almost literally, if the colossus had been a bull.

Daithi back-flipped away, his hands fumbling at his back to let more slack out for the grapple hook. As he hit the ground Daithi sprinted away, towards a sturdy pillar. He dart around it and lashed the grapple hook’s rope around the pillar. When the rope was taunt, he yanked, all the smooth contours of his body working in unisen. The colossus stumbled forward, unbalanced, and faceplanted. Daithi the hook tight, to hold the colossus down, releasing his grapple hook apparatus from his back, and retrieved Dawnbreaker. He marched up to the colossus, raised the holy blade in the air, and drove the point through the back of his enemy’s skull.

Daithi pulled Dawnbreaker free, retrieved and recoiled his grapple hook, and then jogged over to a necromancer to do some late-night interogation.

"That's good." Dacian agreed. "Honestly, I don't understand why people can't just leave us alone." He muttered, squeezing Kay's hand in frustration.

"Maybe you have something they want." Noted Velith. He had retrieved some kind of satchel as they walked, and was now wearing it around his torso. "You don't possess anything extremely valuabe, do you, Dacian?" The question was more rhetorical than anything, it didn't matter to him whether Dacian did or not.
