Dravis gave a death glare to Aetheon and immediately moved to cover his mouth. The damage that was done by this blabbering loudmouth was unknown, but it could very well have meant that their presence has been give naway.

"Shut it, High Elf! There's more at stake here than you'll know!" Dravis angrily said to the Altmer rogue in a hushed voice. It was these unknown variables that really made the Ordinator irascible.

Torsten grimaced at the flamboyant entrance that Aetheon decided to pursue, but he then opened the door of the bedroom quietly. In anticipation of what's to come, he gripped his shield and sword even tighter.

The room was empty.

Torsten eyed his group knowingly, continuing to ask them to follow him and to watch his flank as he then led the group to traverse down the stairs and into the basement. The dark and dimly lit undercroft was deathly silent, but this had to be the only place that Hirarend could've been hiding at.

And suddenly, out of nowhere, a rather massive battleaxe swung sideways with such great force that Torsten was knocked back and fell flat on his behind. Hirarend had been hiding behind the pillar all along. Dravis gritted his teeth, and attempted to buy his comrade some time by lunging his spear forward to stab at the offender, but Hirarend once again swung his mighty battleaxe in an overhead swing and sliced through Dravis' spear, chopping it nearly a quarter of its length and blunting it in the process.

He didn't like these odds, but he had no choice. Everyone here in the room needed to die, for they had known the existence of the Children of Coldharbour. Hirarend decided to take advantage of Torsten's downed state and swung his axe again mightily, but the Nord managed to bring up his shield in time, but just barely. The Dunmer brought up his axe again, and swung it down - Torsten knew he was fighting a losing battle.

"Can someone...attack him or something?!" He finally cried out to his allies that were in the room.
