Nox could sense Dane's disappointment he didn't need Aria's gift. "Sorry man. Better safe than sorry. You'll need every advantage where we are going."
Granted Nox didn't know exactly where they were going, but something here wasn't right so he might as well figure it out. He only hoped that there were creatures to take down or he might have a very unhappy friend who could just as easily try to kill him in the his disappointment.
They walked down deeper into the tunnels. The light from their entrance long since faded and the only light was that of the glowing orb he let float behind them.
The tunnel they were in split into two - one clearly looked man made. Nox made a marker on the map to check it out later. Man made didn't mean monsters in most cases, and it looked newer than what should be down here. Not something to impress his dangerous friend with. So Nox took the cavernous tunnel instead.
Soft scratching sounds could be heard in the distance. Rats or worse lingered there he was certain. Nox curled a whip of fire and earth in his hand with practiced ease.
There was no telling what lie around the next corner. The scratching grew louder. There the sound of things moving ahead. Nox sent the orb in front of them to light the corner and a rat skittered underfoot past them. It was the leader of the pack apparently, dozen's of rats fled from something. Nox grinned and glanced back at Dane. "Be ready."
Nox let the orb go and it faded into nothingness, only the glow of the whip lighted their path.
