A Hunting We Shall Go {Stare, Closed}

[Nevin]

Nevin forced himself back to his feet, body throbbing, and looked to Stare, who still seemed distracted and nervous, though she did seem to be in much better condition. She'd probably had time to drink the healing potion, then. Then he noticed as she walked away that there was anothet piece of armor hanging from the back of her belt.

"Collecting some spoils?" His voice came out more strained than he intended for it to, but he thought it was understandable. He looked down at Sandor, then dropped the shattered remains of the club he had used, and scooped up the sword. While he wasn't an expert swordsman, he knew the very basics - the pointy end went in the enemy. It would have to serve him now - his staff was not here, probably discarded by these bastards when they'd captured him.

"Yes, the man who actually identified me was further down the corridor. Should be just one more door, then a t-intersection. I think we need to go left there to reach the chambers he was in, but I'll know for sure when we get closer." That said he began moving at as fast a pace as he could - the sounds of combat would have alerted anyone near by, far more than his footsteps would. He was getting mildly nervous - the mage would undoubtedly be near the man in charge of these hunters, if they weren't in fact the same person as Nevin was beginning to suspect.

The archway at the end of the hall did in fact lead into a t-shaped intersection, with paths leading off to the left and right. Nevin closed his eyes and tried to focus, to see if his magic still sung to him of the blood he had left behind when struck - but there was no unearthly choirs singing, apparently this close to the boss's room the bounty hunters did actually bother cleaning up a little. There were the faintest of notes coming from directly under his feet in the archway, and he thought the spackled blood led left but he could not be sure. He frowned and looked down the corridor, trying to see if one door stood out to his eyes - back tracking would increase the chances of reinforcements coming for them.
