The sudden change, as they crossed the gate disoriented Brogan. It probably disorientate everyone, because everything changed. The smell in this place did not bother Brogan that much, as he was used to horrid stench when he was making his poison. It was the pressure of the air around them, he felt as if he's a foreign body in someones body. His companions around him didn't look all that hot either, except for the Hero. A fireball suddenly went past nearby and while Brogan didn't need to dodge, he jumped away from it. His experience with fire made him a little overly cautious around it. "So this is what I'll have to deal with for the time being?" he thought, annoyed. "I'd better get used to it then.". He unsheathed the katana and started stepping towards an imp, but the stepping had to be quickly changed into running and dodging, as the fireballs kept coming in huge amounts. While Brogan managed to dodge all of them, he felt that something is not exactly right, as he already felt as tired as if he was sprinting for good ten minutes. Nevertheless, he managed to close the gap between himself and an imp. He swung, hoping that it will be first and the last hit he'll have to take, but the imp managed to parry it. But the parry came with a price and the imp went spinning on one leg and as he did that Brogan pierced the katana right though his head. He took the blade out and cut the scamps ear off and put it in his pouch. It was a creature he has never seen and he couldn't resist the urge to experiment. He took the out a small vial and dropped a few drops of blood from the blade. As he finished doing that, he had to look back, as another fireball flied right past his head. He tried to find the culprit, but dropped that, as he noticed the imperial Katrina, rolling away from a dremora swing and as she stood up - her sword was gone. It was not in her hand anymore. Without thinking about anything else, he rushed towards the dremora and was praying that he'd make it in time, but fortunately both Katrina and dremora had decided to take their time for a staring contest. As he closed in on the dremora, he noticed a sword down on a ground and realized it must have been Katrina's. With the speed he had, he used his sword and pushed Katrina's sword towards her. He didn't know if the sword made it to her, because with the momentum he dashed in front of the dremora and blocked it's swing, dedicated for Katrina. It made Brogan himself lose his balance and take a few steps back and readjust. "Ever thought these guys? Because I have no idea how to fight them." Brogan asked Katrina, looking at the dremora's body, waiting for a slightest twitch.
