[h1]Orge Cave[/h1]

Once the advance team walked into the cave, they'd find themselves going down a long corridor. It went on for some time, so much so that Aiden had a guardian created to go back and retrieve the reserve team so they could still remain an effective distance behind him and Taka. Once the two made it deep enough, the corridor opened up to reveal a large cavern. The two mages were up high above what ceemed like a ceremonial gathering of Ogres, Trolls, and other hideous beasts. At the head of this nightmarish mob was an altar made from the bones of several different kinds of animals with the symbol of a tusked face looking down upon those in the stands with rage in it's eyes.

Behind said altar, trappedin a primitive cage was what appeared to be the family from the request, as well as several other people. However, before either mage could react to the scene in anyway, two trolls that had been hiding in the rocks launched an attack on them. They wielded blades similar to what Bris had picked up, except blood red tendrils were coming from the handle into the Ogre's arm.

Aiden would bring up his Naginata with re-quio mqgic to block the surprise qttack, only to be pushed back by a red shockwave that nearly took him off the edge. Struggling to regain balance for a bit, he finally stabilized himself ob solid ground before leaping back into the fray, lashing out at the ogre who was much more skilled and agile than any ogre had a right to be.

[i]It must have something to do with those weird swords, maybe they increase the user's abilities or something. Either way, something's going on and we've got to end it fast.[/i]

Deciding to stop playing games, Aiden gathered up magical energy into his Naginata, befire swinging it hard at his foe with a mighty shout.

"Ice Dragon's Rending Claw!"

The concentrated slash of cold magic would instsntly incapacitate the ogre, who had no way of blocking the magic. He turned around to Taka, hoping she'd taken care of her enemy as well as he did.
