Welcome to Gaia! ::

"******** smokes, the potential for combat, the urge to dope up and the heat of the melted loot was making Draug rather irritated. Casting off his cloak he was able to rid himself the weight of much of the mud.

And his weapon was still somehow clean.

Then Athan dropped down the hole and left him alone. Not wanting to be alone he waited about fifteen seconds, reasonable amount of time to fall and dropped down himself.

Another plain-looking guy with a bow and two crossbows came in after the first plain-looking guy. 'Course, his weapons were probably painted in the most annoying colors possible, but they were still normal underneath that.

"Sounds like a plan." Onward he went, still following Kael.

((Figured that the upper reaches covered the floors above ground floor for some reason, but eh. Probably easier to go through the front entrance in the other thread, actually.))

"Alright, you can run too, right?" Kael hardly waited a second after checking.

He turned his walkey talky back on, and in a second it was obvious he was making a very poor decision.

"YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-! ANY FROSTCHILDREN PEOPLE HANGING AROUND? ANYONE IN HERE?"

He was infact shouting at the top of his lungs.

The decorations got glances, but nothing more unless there were more functional appearing armor pieces or archaic weapons on display. Really, unless Kael ran into anything that really drew his attention, required investigating, or seemed alive, he was going to head from this hall to the next one up, figuring to cover the top first since they were already up there.

Shouting his lungs out the whole way.

As Valkyarc reached the top of the stairs, he noticed the recent activity that had been going on. Cracks, holes, and many other signs that a group of people had left their calling card here. Considering this was the palace and he was a mercenary, he knew to follow this trail if he was going to do his job. Further on he followed the destruction until he noticed a hole and some echoes coming from inside the hole.

Leaning his head over the hole, the crystal rings that held his sky-blue hair down tapped against the sides of the hole, which would alert anyone down there of his presence. When they'd look up, they would see his white smiling face.

"Anyone from Greywater down there?" Valkyarc asked, not minding the fact that other members of rival factions might be the ones down there.

"Well, if he doesn't care we're here, and he's not a bunch of survivors..."

Yeah, you knew what was coming.

Kael started shouting his lungs out again as he covered the second floor up in the upper levels. If there was anyone alive in the floor he was on, and probably the ones under or below, they had a pretty good chance of hearing him shouting in general for survivors or anyone else to come on out, they were there to try and help, etc, etc.

Of course, this was pretty dangerous, but you had to figure there was a reason why Kael had bothered to ask Lahren if he was set to run.

Assuming nothing stopped him at all on the second floor either, he'd be up to the third floor before too long.

Entering onto the top floor, he shouts: "Big Guy! Athan, you here?"

He continues to look left and right until he comes upon a room where someone was looking down into a hole (Zen Vicious). His right hand immediately pulls out his pistol, raising it up with both hands on the handle.

"Freeze!"

But noticing it was an actual Greywater employee, he quickly moves over.

"You're with Greywater. I remember you from the meeting. Sorry."

He looks down into the hole at his side. "They went down there?"

And without a word of confirmation, he was down the hole.
