~you reach a small, circular chamber illuminated by faint candlelight~
~there's some tables and chairs with dirty plates and cutlery on them, and the putrid stench in the air seems to be getting more intense~
~not countain the way you came in, there are two paths leading out of this chamber, one to your left and one to your right~
~you can hear agitated mumbling from the left path, and... chanting(?) coming from the other~
~the chanting grows louder as you head through the passage on the right, and you eventually find yourself in a large, pentagonal chamber with an altar in the middle~
~hundreds of lit candles line the walls, illuminating a gruesome display: seven people in black robes are standing in a circle around the altar, using an ornate dagger to carve weird sigils into the body of a dead argonian woman that has been tied to the aforementioned altar while chanting in an unknown tongue~
~none of them seem to have noticed you enter yet~
~meanwhile, Angrmark barely makes it halfway through the left passage as she sees at least three people in dark robes and armed with swords and maces come around the corner in front of her~
Left Path
Cultist Guard: "There is the intruder! Get her!"
~the frontmost cultist fires an ice spear at Angrmark before charging at her with his mace~
Right Path
~the Cultist Nr. 1 is kicked in the face by Momo and knocked over~
~Cultist #2 is suddenly much more headless than he was a moment ago, wonder why~
~the cultist who has been carving sigils into the dead Argonian woman screeches as he sees this happen~
Cultist Priest: "Oh, FUCK! DON'T LET THEM INTERRUPT THE RITUAL!"
~most of the other cultists stop chanting and draw daggers, trying to gang up on Momo and stab her repeatedly~

Shepard: -draws his Zweihänder from his mane, the blade covering itself in flames as he charges into the fray, hacking at the cultists assailing Momo-
No you don't!
Angrmark: -instinctively side-steps the incoming ice spear, swiping at the cultist's mace to try and keep his weapon blocked against the cave wall, unable to pull it back to him-
-Six racks her tactical shotgun, a red, eight-gauge shotgun shell whistling out the side-
-She's already picked another target, settling the blue reticle in her HUD over a cultist's center of mass, and the distinctive noise of a shotgun shell clattering to the floor is blocked out by another thunderous blast-
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."Left Path
~yup, that mace is blocked~
~the cultist however draws a dagger with his free hand and tries to shank the dragongirl~
Right Path
~the cultists attacking Momo are tripped, disabled and stabbed, in that order, all while shouting very unfriendly slurs about female lagomorphs~
~meanwhile, the Cultist singled out by Six is shot in the he-... oh, wait, no he isn't~
~he raises his left hand, and a large shield of magical energy appears in front of him, stopping the bullets~
~he responds by flinging a lightning bolt at Six~
Cultist: "You will pay for your intrusion with your blood!"
-Six moves to dodge the lightning bolt-
-But there is absolutely no way you can dodge a lightning bolt unless you have superhero-tier super speed-
-The lightning bolt instantly tears down her energy shielding, but MJOLNIR is well-built to resist EMPs and so as she swivels into cover, racking her shotgun, she doesn't lose any important systems-

Shepard: Right, let's go
-Onwards!-
