Rahz looked around for the Bonemire Scaleborns the guard was talking about but couldn't find them.

”Us?”

”Of course you! Do you see other Bonemire Scaleborns around. on top of ugly, stupid...Spit”

Rahz moved forward and without saying anything at all pulled out his knife and swung it hard towards the guard attempting to severe his head at the neck line. He wanted to finish the fight as quickly as possible to prevent the guard from calling for help.

The guard was caught off guard but his experience kick in and using his pair of wings, he covered his body like a coc.o.o.n.

c.h.i.n.k!!

The blade in Rahz hands was chipped immediately as it bounce of the wings; however, Ridd.i.c.k was ready to take action and stabbed the Scaleborn Guard through the abdomen as easy as putting meat on a skewer.

”HOOOAH”

The guard grunted and knew he was not going to make, the only thing left for him to do was to inform the others about the intruders.

The pain coming from the wound inflicted by Ridd.i.c.k was limiting his ability to think but he still manage to grab a hold of a little horn he had hanging on the side of his waist and moved it towards his mouth.

Rahz opened his eyes wide and before he could say anything, Bato appeared on the guards back and using the Pearls of Enlightenment as a beaded rope he grabbed them around the Scaleborn's neck and pulled hard.

The Guard immediately grab the pearls around his neck and struggle for a little bit until his neck was broken and he lay dead on the floor.

”What a messy kill guys, if we want to clear this mission we got to do a better job” said Jazz standing at the side.

”It should be better now though, I got new weapons”

The weapons hanging around the guard's waist were a pair of black 1 handed axes that suit Rahz taste. The Axes were really heavy despite being 1 handed and he looked like a t.i.tan holding on to both of them.

The Scaleborns were beings that range from 10 ft all the way to 20 ft and if there was something the dragon blood running through their bodies granted them was strength. The axes were made of a Black Onyx that was comparable to the fourth tier metal of the alliance, Adamantium, so they were extremely sharp and never dulled.

The corpse of the Scaleborn was placed inside the cube and the team proceed to climb a few trees to get a better feel of the lay out of the Sanctum Ruins. The pyramid that const.i.tuted the inner Sanctum was clearly visible in all its glory and right by the entrance stood a statue of a western style dragon and 5 beings on their knees paying their respects.

The front of the temple was an open area with naturally forming stones that gave it a very ancient civilization type of feeling, but the area to the back of the temple was enclosed by mountains. The river the team followed upward was actually coming from the top of the temple and then flowed downward through the left and right of the pyramid and was then route forward.

There were quite a few guards patrolling the place, but the closer to the cliff they were, the fewer the amount of people that could be seen.

The team also noticed that there was another Race that look amphibian in nature and they had pickaxes and were carrying pieces of metals into the Sanctum none stop. The moment they stop working, there was a guard always ready to let them know that it was not ok to rest and hit them with gusto.

”We need to clear the outside patrols and then we need to create some chaos so that we can get to the captain. There are 3 days left so I think we have enough time to finish” said Bato.

”How about we release some of the Prisoners? If I was one, I would want those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds with the whip to know the wrath of an oppressed man”.
