Simus watched Lilume turn herself and Winter invisible and head out into the cave. He wanted to apologize, wanted to stop them. He wanted to tell Winter she was right.
Let her go Simus. You've done too much damage already. let it go.
He desperately wanted to help the poor girl: to hold her as if she were his daughter and to tell her that all would be well. Well he was not her father and she was not his daughter. She didn't want to be. After this, she probably wanted him dead. He didn't even hear the part about her offering her help. He was convinced she has stormed off with Lilume, never to return.
Nice going Daddy. There's another person you've failed.
Simus said a small prayer to Talos, asking him to watch over the two girls. If not for their sake then for his. He had failed them both.
He was knocked out of his own failure by the sounds of a battle outside. No, not a battle, a brawl. The group must have found his men. His men! They were still outside and had no idea where these people were! He remembered the orders he gave but also remembered how hot-headed Nords were. He sprinted out of the cave to find a scene that enraged him. Half his men were on the ground, knocked out cold. Three of them were either pinned by one of his new "freinds" or were too bruised to stand up and fight. Only Friga and Elsie were still standing, cornered by Edwin, Arillious and Hale.
Those three...damn those three to Oblivion. He knew they were hot-heads, especially Arillious, but he had no idea they were this stupid. From what he could see, everyone was still alive, but tempers were already out of control. Friga was backed against a large tree, cornered by the three adventurers and Elsie behind her. Friga was still fully armed and looked ok from here. She was a veteran soldier who knew how to stand her ground, so she would be okay. Elsie however was a battle maiden and a new recruit. Poor girl had never even held a blade let alone knew how to use one. She was a pure healer and would fall quicky if cornered. Simus then saw Jeroo standing over a terrified solder with no weapon and R'alle had given another a nasty face would with his long, sharp claws. Someone was going to die if he didn't do something right now. He sprinted out of the cave and into the middle of the fight and boy was he mad.
"WHAT IN OBLIVION IS GOING ON HERE!?!?" Simus shouted with bubbling rage, using a volume spell to turn his voice into a thunderclap. If anyone of these fools had killed his men, he would kill them. No questions, no hesitation, no explanation. He didn't care that he had just fought alongside them to clear this cave out, or how nobile or in the right they thought they were. He'd fight the entire group if he had to, and he would tear apart anyone who got in his way.
Everyone fell silent. One man stayed knocked out, but the others were heartened by his presence and got up, retrieving their weapons and ready to fight again. Simus would have none of that. He immediatly summoned his flame atronach again and activated his flame cloak. He then drew his ebonly longswords and dared anyone to make a move.
"SHEATHE YOUR WEAPONS OR YOU ALL DIE!!" He yelled, magic and adrenaline only enhancing his rage. His blind left glowed with unholy white light and his right eye glowed red with a self-casted fury spell. "NOOOOW!"
Everyone shethed or dropped their weapons, stunned at his sudden and boiling rage. As he was obeyed, the fire died down in his veins and his furious expression was replaced with an icy stare. "Squad, tend to the wounded and form ranks. The rest of you, get out of my sight." His voice became icy steel: none of his men dared hesitate. Erik and the rest of the wounded were helped by those that were still standing and they were able to oraninze themselves into two rows of five, standing at attention before their commander. When Arillious, Edwin and Hale tried to walk off, Simus stopped them. "You three stay here." he commanded.
