On their way back, Hunter had some trouble with all the noise Kardur was making - the man was definitely no sneak. At one point back in the upper tunnels they stopped though as they heard a different source of sounds, another group, armored too, moving through a nearby area. Their voices were blurred and echoed, but it wasn't hard to make out that it was a search party of templars, likely sent to flush out any surviving enemies of Hagans... or bring back any surviving allies of his! It was clear that both parties noticed the sounds the other was making and were now aware of each other... however they didn't meet yet so there was a chance to get away, set an ambush or prepare to parley. After all, they were injured and didn't have any of the heretics with them anymore.
