Kael signrd as he looked at the two cloaked figures standing beside him. It was none other than Handel and Vic.
"My Lord, since you all didn't return last night, there was panic. Sir Robert sent us to check on you. On the way, we met Sir Albert, who briefed us about your plan, so we decided to come here," Handel explained calmly.
Kael smiled, then turned to Vic, who scoffed and shook his head.
"Don't look at me like that. I came here of my own free will. I'm not worried about you," Vic grumbled, crossing his arms.
"Yeah, whatever..." Kael waved him off and turned his gaze back to the mine. "Are you seeing what I'm seeing?"
Handel and Vic followed his line of sight, their expressions turning grim. Massive Ice Titans stood like frozen gods, their glowing eyes lifeless yet filled with menace. Even one of them would be a nightmare to fight, and here, there were several. The huge Ice Trolls lurking nearby didn't make things any better.
