Relying on the assumption that the Bosmer had exhausted his magicka may not have been the best decision from Janius, as his next lunge was about to be met by another bolt of fire. Janius' saving grace was Meesei's lightning, which managed to disrupt the Bosmer's spell long enough for Janius to follow through. The Bosmer was swift enough to block Janius' chop with the haft of his spear, however, giving his Redguard associate enough space to cut down towards Janius' arm. Janius had to twist one arm over the other to shield himself from the swing, then step back receive the next blow. The Redguard had stepped up to follow Janius and swung sideways at his right. Janius turned to block and suffered the coordination of his opponents as the Bosmer thrust his spear into a gap in Janius' armour, piercing his upper-arm. A burning pain shocked its way through Janius' body as the silver bit through his flesh, causing him shout in pain, but it wasn't a lethal strike. Without heed to the state of his wound, Janius rode on his adrenaline and brought his shield arm around to trap the Bosmer's spear, before pulling the Bosmer towards him and chopping at his neck. The Bosmer hardly had time to register his plight under Janius' strength as his blood escaped him faster than he could hit the ground.

Sabine hurled one last stone before the resolve of the cultist's side of the battle broke completely. The combination of a seemingly unstoppable flaming vampiric fighter in front of them, alongside their former shieldmates now fighting against them with wide eyes and dead faces was too much. Those that saw an opportunity to escape ran in the opposite direction as fast as they could. Seeing one side of the battle lost triggered the other side to run as well, and soon none were left fighting that Sabine could see. It appeared as if they had won. With no one else to throw stones at, Sabine turned to check on Nuulanth.

The Redguard, as if already enraged by the fight before seeing his friend die, shouted ferociously as he brought his claymore up in a large arc. Janius was able to jump back to evade, but still held the spear that was stuck in his shield arm. Janius was beyond heeding the need to save magicka for wards, so he charged another firebolt and tossed it wildly at the Redguard's face. The impact made him yell in surprise and pain and stopped him in his tracks. He was blinded enough for Janius to run up and bump him to the ground with a shoulder. Standing over the Redguard, Janius chopped down into his helmet, ending his life in an instant.

Janius looked up, expecting to be faced with another opponent, but he saw no one through the thick fog. He only heard footsteps running away. Kaleeth and Lorag were still nearby, and Meesei was probably watching over them as well, but it would seem that the fight was over. Janius stepped back out of the fog, breathing shallowly through his mouth and with a pounding heart. There were plenty of bodies strewn about, but the only living mercenaries he could see were silhouettes in the fog by now, if they weren't getting shot in the back as they ran.

It didn't look like anyone in the pack was killed. Just a few injuries, including Janius' own arm. Janius looked down at his shield arm and found that the spear was no longer lodged in it, it had fallen out on its own and it was the wound that left an impression. Janius dropped the spear in realisation, not that his arm had much energy left. He could feel his arm starting to soak in the blood that would have given it energy. Curiously, Janius reached around and touched the puncture in his arm, upon which he winced sharpy and suddenly the pain returned. He didn't appear to have suffered any further injuries, so once he put away his axe and tried to hold the wound closed, he looked around to his packmates. "Is everyone alright?" Janius groaned. With all the blood spilled around them, Janius could feel his beast spirit pushing on his subconscious. Hopefully Kaleeth was managing okay.
