The VALKYRIE agents slipped and lost their balance --the cause of which being Kali's subtle manipulation of the friction of the ground of which they stood, causing them to fall backwards into the hard and cold snow-covered ground. Each attempt of theirs to get up caused them to fall back down again, though, using nearby objects as leverage, they managed to render themselves into a sort of upright state and opened fire.

Or that's what they wanted to do. As soon as they all pulled the triggers on their guns, by some strange twist of fate, they exploded, breaking their hands, charring them, and inflicting major bleeding. They all grunted in pain, as they were trained to resist pain, but they were still grunts after all.

Out of seemingly nowhere, two shots rung out and found their mark in the shoulder of one of the agents, knocking him down. The mage-hunters who had the advantage semmed to be on the losing end of the fight now. The mage who was under attack ran from under cover and joined up with your cabal. He introduced himself as Kyeon, an Initiate Mastigos of the Mysterium.
