From:

"And you won't be doing it alone." Jim can promise that much to his husband with every last ounce of his determination. He rolls the mint in his mouth then, trailing off as Stratos and their uncle appear over the hill and to their position.

"Bigger than I pictured, too." The captain nudges the dremora's body with the toe of his boot one last time before turning attention toward the main structure of the ruins. His thoughts focused to what lies in wait for them inside. And below.

Jim exchanges a glance with the elder Caelus brother at the last. Felix had told them that he'd already tried searching the upper floors and found nothing. They can do a quick sweep again to be sure, but more than likely what they're looking for is stored below. If any of the Runeblades' twisted experiments yet wanders those corridors, they're likely to have to do at least a little sneaking or fighting yet.

"Ready when you two are." And he means it. Even with lead weight in his stomach.
