Cassandra shivered as she shoved her gloved hands into her pocket, looking up at the massive, steep, iced over rock face they'd have to climb to get the three mirrors. Her pack weighed heavy on her back, but she refused to let that bother her. 'I am a Valkyrie.', she reminded herself and straightened up.
Layla bustled up beside Cassandra and whistled long as she stared at the rock face. "This is gonna be hard...", shaking her head, she shouldered her pack. "You ready?"
Cassandra whipped out two ice picks from her belt and nodded. "Let's do it."

Tane glances with a frown, tilting his head one way before the other still wet from his last little adventure through water "I hate ice..." he mutters glancing at his companion, a reply of "uhuh" in agreement.
"Lets just melt the fucker" Tane smiles playing with a fire ball in his hands, his energy mounting

Cassandra sticks both of her ice picks in the ice, before using the metal spikes on the toes of her boots to get a good foothold, Layla right beside her doing the same. Cassandra sighs as she looks up the distcance they will have to go. "I wish I had wings.", she mutters as she removes the ice picks and moves them up higher, slowly but surely progressing. Layla nods and follows suit.

Tane and his (mystery) companion set to work, sending a heated wave through the glacier wall, melting the core outwards to weaken the structure and make it collapse in order to get what they needed,

Cassandra blinks as halfway up, the structure of the ice face seems to shudder. Looking to Layla, she mumbles ,"Uh-oh...c'mere." As Layla makes her way over, Cassandra sheds her gloves and backpack and grips the wall with her claws instead. Pulling Layla onto her back with a grunt, Cassandra begins to scurry quickly up the wall, getting closer and closer to the top and the three mirrors there.

As the two work, Tane smiles watching shards fall, the face of ice seeming to loose its structure as they heat the core to boiling point

Cassandra, feeling the rock face get hot, grunts and throws Layla up onto the top of it. "Grab two of the mirrors and come back!", she says. Layla nods and grabs two of the mirrors, stuffing them into her pack before going back down and climbing onto Cassandra's back. With a wince, Cassandra lets her black wings burst through her jacket and she takes flight, lifting away from the rock face and landing severald feet away.

Tane concentrates and heats the ice enough to make the rest shatter in shards, his companion grabbing the other mirror that was left and making their way back

Cassandra takes a deep breath, watching the two men walk away, her anger rising.
"Cass, don't do it.", Layla warns, and sighs when Cassandra starts running after the men, running after her.

Tane glances back and shrugs looking to his companion whom had already made somewhat of a dissapearing act with the mirror, waving a hand over it before it vanished, Tane springing into a lazy run almost taunting hte pursuer

Cassandra catches up easily to the man and grasps his shoulder, spinning him around to face her. "What the hell was that?! Not only could you have killed us, but you also could've destroyed the mirrors!", she shouts at him.
Layla soon gets to them, panting. "Cassie, c'mon let's go!"

Cassie growls, before releasing his arm. "You just made the wrong enemy, fire mage. Watch your back.", she says with a hiss, before turning and walking off.
Layla smiles weakly at the man. "Sorry.", she says, before chasing after Cassie again.
