Ragnar ran outside quickly, before whistling loudly, at which point his mount quickly showed up, dropped off his weapons and armor and then rode off. Ragnar taking his pile of armor and his hammer walked back inside to put on his armor. As he listened to the mission, while putting on his armor, he learned that they were going back to the mine to do some damage. There was some enforcers there and they needed to be handled. This should be their final mission for them and after that it should be all handled from there.
Ragnar put on his armor in the time it took for the man to explain what was going on, and he put his hammer in his right hand. Ragnar wasn't really sure how many of these contractors there were in this camp but it shouldn't be too much of an issue all things considered. In theory it should be as simple as having their gang keep the bulk busy while Ragnar and Quill take out leaders or problems as they come up.

As he walked down the hill, moving off to the side in order to make a possible flanking move later in the fight if his assistance was required. Apparently this flanking move drew the attention of not one but three of the guards here and they turned and pointed at Ragnar before running over to fight him.
Ragnar stood there for a moment as he tried to figure out what the best course of action was as fighting three vs one is normally a problem for most people. Well maybe not Quill as Ragnar was sure she could just cast a spell at her feet and kill everyone she might encounter but that was fine for her.
Ragnar allowed the three men to approach, allowing them to get close enough that if they started to run they wouldn't be able to escape. Ragnar knew that trying to fight all of them at once wasn't going to help him and he would have to quickly kill one and then move onto another and so on. Ragnar choose one at random and lunged towards him, apparently Ragnar was much faster then he expected because all that was on his face when Ragnar slammed his hammer into his chest was shock. Once Ragnar's hammer made contact and crushed the man's chest, he went flying into the distance thirty feet.
Ragnar turned towards the other two and made quick work of them as well. Even if they had armor or shields, none of that mattered as they were all shattered under the blow of Ragnar's hammer. All Ragnar needed was a single hit and they were done and out.
Ragnar then turned towards his comrade to see how she was doing, expecting her to be sitting and hanging out in the shade because she killed anyone who tried to attack her minutes ago while Ragnar was still fighting his.

The man clearly knew the tunnels better then either of them, as he ran down them dodging easily anything that was in his way. Ragnar just kinda pushed anything aside that caused him issues or problems. It took them several minutes of running until Ragnar and Quill turned a corner and saw the man running down an old part of the tunnel and that is when Ragnar heard a rumbling. It was low but Ragnar knew what that meant as he turned his body to the side and threw his arms over Quill's body, giving her a hug, as a wall of dust and rock came spraying past them. Ragnar didn't feel the weight of a tunnel collapsing on him, so he turned his head and looked down the tunnel. It was a very isolated tunnel collapse it seemed, as he saw the man laying on the ground screaming. Ragnar, letting go of Quill, as if nothing had happened brushed off his armor of the dust and rock fragments as he walked down the tunnel.
Once he reached the end of the tunnel, Ragnar noticed that the man's leg was crushed under the rubble. He would bleed out soon, but hopefully he went into shock before then so it would be less painful. As Ragnar stood over him, inspecting the damage the man's started cursing loudly. He started cursing a name that he had heard before but one he didn't want to hear again. Frankan.
Ragnar looked down at the man and realized what had just happened. That man lied to Ragnar. He told him that he was innocent and he believed him, at least enough to tell his boss that he believed him. Ragnar leaned down to the man and promised him a swift death if he told him what he knew. Apparently he was hired by Frankan and not the other contractors. Well isn't that interesting.
Ragnar followed through on his promise as he crushed the man's skull with a single punch, turning it into a salsa like pulp. Standing up Ragnar looked at Quill before verifying that she heard all of that.

They left the bodies here, well the body of the contractors, and they took the rest of the bodies with them to bury them elsewhere. That was fairly common in battles, if the losers were completely wiped out, they would leave the bodies there and the winner would take their dead and nothing else.
Ragnar followed Quill back to the location where they got paid. Once they got paid Ragnar turned and went off his own way, and he assumed Quill wouldn't care. She wasn't his keeper or his watcher so he didn't have any reason to expect her to follow him.
He went back to the mines, and the dead bodies of the contracts and began his bloody work. He went to every body and remove their heads, and placed their bodies elsewhere for now. After that he created a fire out of the wood nearby along with oil and anything else Ragnar could find. At that point Ragnar put all the of the heads into the fire and allowed them to 'cook' though Ragnar wasn't planning on eating any of this. He kept fueling the fire hotter and hotter until the skin turned black and charred, at which point Ragnar pulled them out of the fire and scrapped what amounted to hardened ash off the skulls.
Ragnar was left with dirty skulls, not nearly as clean as he would normally like them but he didn't have time to do the normal stuff he did as he was sure in the morning the other people would show up. Ragnar then started the other half of his work and started moving the bodies around. It didn't take him too long before he finished his work, placing the burnt skulls in a large pile in the center of this.
As the world zooms out, anyone watching will realize that this isn't just some random placement of bodies as it really makes a massive symbol onto this world. Very few people knew what this symbol was and those who did would be afraid. This was the symbol of Zalambur, the Devil of Blood and Murder.
