Yeah don’t ever recall BLM charging the US Capitol building, scaling the walls, attacking Capitol police and breaking windows to enter.

The arrows continued, slamming into the ground and bouncing off of the cover the group went behind. The archers were unseen until the natural fog which covered the mountains dissipated momentarily, revealing four figures standing above the group on top of a large ruin, each of them clenching bows with quivers on their backs. They all wore leather armor and as soon as they realized they were spotted one of them rose his fingers to his mouth and let out a loud whistle, clearly alerting others.
A moment later a group of warriors dashed into the battle, coming from the side, there were eight of them, four wielding battleaxes, the others with swords and shields. They each were clad in iron armor and charged towards the group, letting out battle cries as they moved. Aldred watched it from behind cover, then turned to Lander and the rest of the group.
"Take out the archers first! Those of you that specialize in close quarters combat go for the warriors!" He yelled to the group, then came out of cover, his sword held high as he ran towards the enemy warriors. In mid stride an arrow smacked into his leg, striking where there was a soft spot in his armor.
"Fuck!" Aldred exclaimed, still moving forward through the pain. He swung his greatsword, lashing into one of the attackers with a battleaxe, his weapon colliding with the axe. Two other warriors, another with a battleaxe, the other with a sword and shield, stood near the one fighting with Aldred, Waiting for a chance to strike at the former Vanguard.
The other five warriors went in different directions, one charging forward at Sipley, coming from her left side where she was behind the column his massive axe raised. Two others darted at Caspian, each carrying a sword and shield. The last axe wielder went at Lucio, closing in with his weapon ready to swing, the other swordsman not far behind in stride. The archers taking shots at the rest of the group, one of the arrows striking Emilia's horse in the buttock, causing the creature to gasp in shock.

Aldred ignored Nyx's good morning. ):
Edited. ;)
So now after killing giants, the group has made their way into the mountains where they come upon ruins, but as they come into the ruins arrows whiz near them...
Aldred grasped the potion, staring at it for a moment. He never liked taking strange handouts such as this, but Emilia was a healer so she knew what she was doing and if it would help deal with the unbearable cold of the mountains then he saw no reason not to take it, so he did, taking a long gulp before placing the rest of it in one of the pockets on his belt. Then he smiled back at Nyx before Sipley approached him with a sarcastic bow.
"It's good to see you back to your cheery self," He said to Sipley, returning the smirk. "Seems like we're ready to go into the freezing cold mountains after all." He added before rising out of his seat and turning towards the whole group.
"Time to get moving! Get your horses and anything else you are going to take with you because I don't know if we're going to be coming back here once our business is finished in the mountains." Aldred said loudly then started out of the inn as the group followed him out, each one following at their own pace, those that came on horses getting on them, Aldred himself walking on his feet.
The ragtag group made their way out of the town, reaching where the giant's had first been spotted which was right near the start of the mountain range, as they moved closer to the mountains, the temperature seemed to drop even further and the wind picked up. It was a whole different animal in this part of the continent, absolutely brutal if you aren't careful.
"I spoke with some of the townsfolk earlier, they said there's ruins in these mountains, suspicious ones at that. Apparently an ancient Elven fortress from thousands of years ago, its creators dead and gone. They shared my thought that the giants may be coming out of the ruins, possibly a powerful mage summoning the beasts for some reason." Aldred said as a strong wind blew into the group as they started going higher up into the mountains, the snow crunching below their feet.
"Thankfully they're not that far into the mountains, we should be coming up right upon them," Aldred replied right as he looked down to see what looked like an entrance to a set of ancient ruins. "Huh, the fortress must be built into the mountains, that's quite clever."He said, then continued moving down a slope towards the ruins.
As he took a footstep, an arrow whizzed right by him, clanking off the shoulder of his heavy armor. Aldred sprinted to the side, diving behind a large rock as more arrows came, following his trail of footsteps. From where the others were standing, it looked like the arrows were being fired from up above, likely from a ridge or cliff, but no archers could be seen. The time to figure out where they were ended as the arrows started coming towards the group, many coming close to hitting target.
"Get behind something! Keep moving towards the entrance!" Aldred yelled, drawing his blade, still in cover behind a rock.

If you want Heat we can steer them towards a romance over the course of the story. She already respects him because he was a Vanguard and he's only a couple years older than her.
Maybe...
IC post posted. We shall begin the journey tomorrow (after I wake up IRL).
Yeah I was wondering what that meant. :p
Also, this website really needs some kind of alert when someone posts at the same time as you.

Speaking of shipping I just realized that I basically offered Emilia's hand in marriage to Aldred. "...I'll be with you until we're both old and grey..." at least Aldred is a handsome guy . :P

Soon everyone had gone off for the night, Aldred himself into one of the inn's rooms for rent where he managed to fall asleep after tossing and turning in his bed for what seemed like hours. Then the sun rose in the wintery town, basking the snowed ground in the shining rays. The corpses of the dead beasts which assaulted the town before still remain, frozen from sitting overnight in the brutal conditions.
Everyone in the group eventually woke up, meeting once again in the tavern which was under repairs currently as several men had came from the surrounding area, more were outside looking over the giant's bodies, none of them believing their eyes. A battalion of well trained guards also was now in the settlement after the citizens of town implored the Dominion to send some spare guards, which they did, the guards themselves not too happy being stuck in the freezing cold.
"They weren't kidding!" One of the repairmen yelled to another as the man stood on the roof, placing a wood beam down.
"Yeah, did you see those big bastards? Those are the stuff of fairy tales." The other replied, hammering a nail into a piece of wood.
"How can you not see them?"
The conversation carried on as the people below, inside the inn milled around, Aldred sitting at a table, a empty plate in front of the armored man who looked over the rest of the group around the room as they prepared to leave the town and head into the harsh mountains to find the source of the giants.
"Maybe the attack is connected to something," He said to no one in particular, his mind going over the possiblities. It couldn't be just a coincidence, but he really did not know at all. "I guess we'll find out soon enough. Get ready to move out in ten, the mountains are a brutal place to travel through, I've been through them before, during the war, it's imperative to know what we're doing." He said to the group as he sat in his seat, waiting.
