Adrian Jannus
Within the hour, the group had finally managed to set off grabbing everything they needed and finished off with their snide remarks to each other. The journey to the farming community was pretty unremarkable as far as journeys go, there was a few wolves on the edges of the forests next to the road they traveled down but they soon ran off back into the woods seeing how many were travelling together. After a while of walking down The Gold Road they had to take a turn off the main road and had to follow a path through the woods that let to Shardrock.
The weather had not really improved, it had gone the other way in fact with the clouds getting even darker, it would soon start raining. As Adrian looked up towards the sky, a look of annoyance came over his face, he hated the rain and being wet.
Walking towards the farm, Adrian and Flavia were at the front of the group both trying to look like the leader, Flavia doing the better job. The closer they got to the farm though, the quieter it got. The birds in the trees had stopped chirping, all that could be heard was the wind blowing through the woods, but not everyone had noticed how quiet it was as they talked between themselves. What was noticeable though was the smoke that started to get stronger. After a while they walked into a clearing and the group suddenly stopped to see the scenes. There was no one about. Without speaking Adrian motioned for everyone to carry on walking. Shardrock would have been a normal farming community if most of the houses hadn't been burned down, there was just smoke coming from the wreckages of the houses. Around four houses looked like they was still standing though from where they was stood. Everyone was spread out, most people had their weapons drawn as they walked closer to centre of the village.
Adrian slowly walked forward, one of his short swords had been drawn, the dread growing inside of him not knowing what was going on. He took a quick look behind to see Justin, the other Imperial crouching behind him. As they moved round the corner, Adrian froze as he looked at the scenes in front of him. A body of a young Imperial women laid on the ground with her eyes open but glazed over, her body jerked a little as the creature crouching over her was eating her insides, blood and guts covered the floor around the imp and the corpse. Adrian froze as he looked at what was going on, Justin started to walk past him. Adrian noticed the deathly look on his face as the Imperial shakily pulled his crossbow from his side. "Gods preserve me." Justin said in a frightened voice as he aimed the crossbow at the scamp. Suddenly the imp looked up staring at Justin and screeched as loud as it could before Justin had let loose the bolt hitting the imp right in the centre of its head, the body fell on top of the corpse it had been eating. In an instant, the sounds of footsteps could be heard from all directions. Adrian just stood there behind Justin as they stared at the two bodies. The thrums of bows sounded and a second later an arrow glanced off of Adrians left arm, he dived to the side and looked over at Justin who was on his knees and holding his throat, an arrow had caught him there. Out of nowhere all sorts of Daedra started to rush at everyone. Adrian struggled to his feet and suddenly had to slash at another scamp who had jumped at him, he caught the scamp's arm which easily came off as the imp ran off screaming, all around everyone was fighting different types of Daedra.

As Adrian was about to fill the Argonian in on the current mission, two more members of the company walked in. He sighed as he heard the huge Nords excuse of taking a wrong turn. Quietly he said to himself, "How can someone miss a big sign that points to here?" He shook his head and looked back to the Argonian who had been distracted by one of the new recruits who was also a part of some order to do with the Gods. Adrian didn't really bother to ask what they did after he found out it was a religious order because he didn't really care about the Gods. "Zazar." Adrian shouted, trying to get his attention. "The farms just west of here and will probably take an hour." He kept his voice loud so the two other newcomers could hear. "They're farmers I really don't see there being any skilled fighters or mages living there, maybe retired soldiers, I don't know. We'll soon find out the reason why they're not paying."
After Adrian spoke he then sauntered over the door and pushed it open and then looked back to everyone. "Whenever you're ready children, we'll get going." As he spoke, Adrian checked his belt to make sure it was secure. He had a quick look over at anyone. There was thirteen of them all together, he didn't know whether that was a bad omen or not. They would soon find out.

Sorry about the lack of activity guys, will try and get a post up tomorrow to move the story along. :)
If you're accepting new character's I'd be interested. :)

As Adrian watched Flavia to see how she would react to his bait, the conversation was cut short when one of the new members of the group came barging into the room. An Argonian named Zazar. Whilst he was giving reasons as to why he was late, Adrian just frowned at him. When the Argonian finished speaking Adrian sighed and said, "Go to a certain farm, and get the septims that they owe to the count. Just a standard job really, I can't see much going wrong unless Flavia decides to unleash the fury of the Gods on them if they're not exactly forthcoming with what they owe." A little smile came over Adrian as he looked at Flavia hoping she'd retaliate as he looked at her from the corner of his eyes. A second later Adrian looked back to Zazar and asked him, "So do you have any other questions because we're about to set off?"
