Looks like you skipped my turn already, I'm mostly watching at the moment anyway.
Also as a heads up, the Daemon webs is a pretty confusing and nasty place, as the realm is built in layers of web, so to think of it as a place like earth where it's flat or mostly horizontal is a bad idea. Most rock platforms are supported by countless super sized spider webs, and all those stones vary in size, and the only way off them is travling across giant spider threads. One could conceivably fall hitting a dozen spider threads all the way to the core of the world, it is called pits for a good reason.
One could thus hide under a lower section of web layers, forcing someone who fly's to dodge around a bounce of those webs, they also make nice platforms to jump off of. No world seemed to be a true anti-fly zone, thus the inspiration for this world map.
Oh, and careful of the giant spiders. :K
I might not be very active today just so you all know.

So how did we handwave that we all speak English/can understand each other?
Easy, I made translators for one of my characters, Tablurath/Khazna, another two are psionic.
Very good.

I know what I said.
But did you said what you know?

Ah, so they're the soldiers from Destiny, gotcha.
Prefecto, It also helps Destiny has sci-fi magic.
Khazna only shrugged as Fury quickly took off. With a sigh he boarded one of the Drop ships. The two OS2K “Hopper” Drop ships soared through the cold air several hundred feet off the ground a few moments later, dark sky above the Daemon webs slowly brightening with the rising dawn. The ships were slower than Fury of course, which were left following a blazing but fading azure line in the Fireen's wake. When they reached a mile out from where Kholodny and now Fury were, Khazna quickly ordered for the ships to set down on a large towering spire of stone just wide enough at the top to allow one ship to land drop their living cargo and for the next to taxi in theirs.
The Cardinals drop ship touched down first, hovering a few feet off the spires top. There was no telling how much weight it could hold after all. Jumping down they landed and quickly took up defensive positions. Large spiders had already scurried away from the whining scream of the ships engines. Once the four squads had lined up, orders where given, with one of the drop ships reaming to provide air to ground support.
"Alright boys, let's go see what our good friend Sunshine has managed to sniff up, eh?"
Khazna had wisely opted to walk the remaining 200 yards simply to avoid losing any assets in the crossfire. After all he did not know if it was a dreamer they were dealing with here. He was assured Fury could handle him for a while in any case. He probably preferred it that way if anything. He left a squad on the high ground as he lead the rest of the 18 soldiers down a massive spider thread. One easily 20 feet wide in diameter and obscenely long; thankfully it was not adhesive. Once they reached the bottom of the web bridge to the top of another stone spire, this one 36 feet high he ordered his men to hold their position as he observed the scene unfolding before him.
Verifying the target was essential before he went charging into unknown danger. Sheltered behind a few rocks that almost acted kind of like a parapet or battlement that ringed around the west end of the spire. This gave him and his men prefect coverage of the area bellow while maintaining the element of surprise. The Drop ship had circled around to the east in a search pattern, which also served as an early warning of sorts should their activity gain the attention of any hostile beings of the daemon webs. Of which there was an uncomfortable many.

What the Anger Soldiers with Tablurath look like in case anyone was wondering;
Each squad is made up of 6 men, four with assault rifles one with a heavy weapon, and the third with a long rifle, usually a sniper. Most have cybernetic implants.

Hey you, I resemble that remark!
You what?
It's going to take time for Khazna to catch up to Fury in any case. :P
Plus Khazna is likely to literally watch.
Jump in if he needs help, or just try and capture Ice boy, might even try and talk him down. He's probably the least violent, or must unpredictable chap there.

Wow, snap, Daemon Web Pits exploded.
