Kaze had observed the groups of adventurers, bandits, unsavory, holy, and normal from atop the wrecked wall near one of the ruins main entrances. It was an ancient city, probably a few centuries old, and crumbling like any ruin does. No one worked together except with their little groups, but it was understandable given a two hundred and fifty gold coin profit for finding...something. But there was no real organization either, everyone was getting in everyone elses way and tempers were flaring up.

Why did countries do big scale things like this? Didn't they have some sort of little scouting parties? Swift movers? The hell kind of operation was this? Of course sitting and thinking didn't get anyone anywhere when it came to things like this. Whatever, he slid down the wall before moving deeper in. The 'labyrinth' that was the city was like a trip home. He casually hopped over fallen columns, clambered over wrecked buildings. His sure grip and footing saw him through what most other people were struggling with.

They amused him honestly, adventurers were supposed to be ready for all obstacles. But they floundered at basic obstacles, whether it was their equipment or just lack of experience, it didn't matter. It was part of the reason why he wasn't clad in full plate armor, he could move freely but he had enough defense to stay safe.

While he had moved a sudden ruckus started up. Some Imperial bastards got uppity, trying to claim this was their land when even Kaze knew it had been abandoned for time unknown for reasons no one knew. Of course someone with more brawn than brain took action, and now a fight was broken out. [color=crimson]"Of for fucks sake..."[/color] He muttered and decided to skirt around that bullshit.

That major cluster-fuck was bad news, especially since he saw magic going off that was causing what was potentially friendly fire. Yeah, not happening. But despite skirting around it, the fighting was more wide-spread. It seemed the Imperial's had more than one group in a single cluster. Smaller batches of units were engaging other adventurer's. Was he seriously going to get dragged into this because he wasn't wearing a uniform?

The answer was yes as an arrow pinged off his pauldron. Growling he scurried down with inhuman agility and barreled into a cluster of Imperial's, four of them. He batted aside a swipe from a sword with the metal of his gauntlets before driving his fist, as a straight punch, into the smaller mans chest. The thin steel plate caved in as he flew backwards away from the lizardman. The others paled but attacked as one, the archer firing, the other two swordsmen struck at him with a thrust and overhead slash.

The arrow sunk into Kaze's pectoral, but only the iron head went in. The thrust was brushed aside like the first slash, the overhead strike was caught in the metal palm. Kaze twisted and did a round-house kick to the thrusting swordsman's side, sending him skipping down the street. His light plate armor making it so he went further than a normal person would. The sword in his hand was bend with a twist of his wrist, leaving that soldier unarmed. That archer though, just got a glare before his companion was tossed into him. Snapping the bow he had held into splintered pieces.

[color=crimson]"Cheap rubbish, cheap soldiers...[/color] He muttered before darting off, such rank and file soldiers weren't really worth it. He tried to make his way without getting into more skirmishes, but it would be doubtful he'd get to the center of the city without engaging another group.
