[CLOSED] I'm just a slave unto the night

[amygdalae]

WHO: Bruce Not-Banner, Kaisa Daesun, Velanna, Bethany Hawke-Darton and eventually Nahariel Dahlasanor
WHAT: The return to Kirkwall.
WHEN: teh dank au
WHERE: Hightown, Kirkwall
NOTES: Explosions, sneaky stuff, maybe murder, basically not very fun things here. These are not very fun people (except for Kaisa, who is always 100% fun).

The appearance of the time travelers was - to put it lightly - unexpected. But it meant now that they might have a valuable asset on their hands, even if their foes were already aware of them. It didn't matter though since they were no longer there but here, with them, with what remained of the Inquisition in Orzammar. Bruce knew very well how lucky they were to have all of them relatively unscathed, and was well aware that it had to be more than pure luck for them to end up here, of all times. It's one of the many reasons why he stays in the shadows right outside Kirkwall, finding the right moment to strike.

Close to him is the rest of the team, all of them eager for the chance to strike where it hurts. But patience is what they needed now more than anything else, and its only when the opportunity comes in the form of a passing guard then does he give the signal to strike. Swiftly the guard is taken out and dragged into the darkness before silenced to ensure that their presence is undetected.

A quick search of the body finds a set of keys that belong to the dungeon. After a moment to think Bruce gives his instructions - splitting into teams of two each, one will head to the dungeons to find their unexpected ally while another will search elsewhere just to be safe, and draw away attention if necessary.

Instructions given, the group splits into two, each with their own objective to accomplish.

One reason why Bruce and Kaisa work well together, as leader and second-in-command, is that while Kaisa is generally averse to having to make important decisions, she is perfectly happy to bark orders at people--as long as they aren't her orders. Bruce shouts the instructions, and Kaisa steps up to make sure that they're done.

"C'mon, you heard the man, let's move."

It...doesn't have quite the same effect when it's only three other people you're shuffling along. But Kaisa pulls out her sword and starts ushering the others along, staying to the back of the group as they move, and keeping an eye on Bruce. No stupid suicidal heroics today, ya rude ass.
