“Good, that will make travelling much easier. Do you need to get anything from the shops first? You could send that letter then if you needed.” She considered sending a letter herself to Windhelm, to let Moira know she was alright, but shrugged it off. She didn’t even know if she and Agakil were...

“And the Blade Sang Melodious…” Saorat repeated the name slowly, turning it around in her memory and searching for any possible connections. She stared at the Imperial intently as he spoke, trying to make sure all the names stayed in her mind, even though some of them were unfamiliar. Neloth and...

Saorat’s whiskers twitched at the image of the Khajiit pouncing upon the older man, then peeking under his paws to see whether he was still there. A valiant effort, my friend… But what, may I ask, did you plan on doing with him after you pounced? She didn't think he’d thought that far ahead...

Saorat watched the Khajiit’s face out of the corner of her eye as he pondered the map. He’d fallen silent for a little while, so there must have been something he was concentrating on… It was a shot in the dark, she knew, but it was at least a chance. And if Kumiko had travelled as much as she...

Saorat bristled a little at the edge in her companion’s voice, but made no mention of it. Biting back wouldn’t help anything, probably only make it worse. For some reason, it hurt her a bit that this stranger she’d scarcely met apparently thought so little of her. There was no reason to be that...

“You sneak up on… vegetables. And… bop them on the head…” Saorat tilted her head to one side and gave Kumiko a baffled stare. “But… they don't even have heads…” It occurred to her that that wasn't even the most concerning thing he'd just said, but eventually just gave up trying to understand and...

Saorat stifled a laugh at the Khajiit’s baffled response, but managed to keep it mostly under control, though a low, raspy chuckle still lingered underneath her words. “Good to meet you, Kumiko.” she replied formally, returning the bow, “I am pleased you made it out safely and that your… friends...

Moving through the marketplace and watching the people go about their lives, Saorat felt that, for a moment, she could forget all about the war. Whiterun had never taken a strong side during the conflict, the Jarl preferring to keep his people out of it, and even now it showed. It was peaceful -...

A dry, bitter laugh escaped Saorat’s throat and she spoke with derision. “Hardly. Not a drop of noble blood among them all, despite all their wealth and high breeding. Ambition too, grasping at any power that comes within reach.” It was dangerous, she knew. If Maven could find her here, she...

Saorat pursed her lips as Lyla hissed at her and looked at the elf with an icy stare. “You’re certainly acting like one... You can’t just go around killing people because you want to, there are laws! That would be no better than this assassian, judging for himself who should live or die. I don’t...

Saorat stared slack-jawed as the woman suddenly sprang up behind the assassian and carried him to the ground without a sound. The Khajiit was agile, but she doubted she could have pulled off an attack like that, even if she’d known how to execute it. The tactic was similar to her own training...

Saorat had been surprised by the sudden change of plan, but accepted the new order easily and quickly changed direction toward the fleeing criminal. He was still stumbling, but moving with a surprising swiftness for his drowsy state. Saorat wondered if the drug was wearing off and willed her...

Saorat was already leaning over the ladder leading off the wall when Lyla spoke, causing her to pull up short and glance sheepishly at the woman. “Ah yes, preparation. Right. Umm…” She straightened and thought quickly, her fingers drumming impatiently as she watched the dwindling figure move out...

“Pleased to meet you, Lyla.” Saorat replied, dipping her head a bit, then chuckled slightly to herself at her description of travel. “I can certainly understand that; I’ve done a bit of travelling myself. Across the provinces, in fact!” Thinking about her journey, she suddenly realised just how...

At first, Saorat stared at the woman with wide eyes as she began to laugh; that had been the last thing she’d expected. The woman would probably have shouted at her, flung back insults in return, maybe even used those darts of hers or pushed her off the wall. She wouldn’t have been unjustified...

“Watch out! Excuse me! Sorry, ma’am!” Saorat’s ears burned with embarrassment as she tried to avoid the afternoon-shoppers as she barreled down the street, wincing slightly with each cry of alarm or anger as civilians ducked out of her way or sent their wares flying. She overheard more than a...

As the woman snipped at her, Saorat’s brow furrowed and a look of baffled hurt crossed her eyes. What had she done? She’d never intended to cause any offense, and couldn’t think of any reason for the woman’s irritation at her. Well, there was that first time she’d snarled at her, but that had...

Saorat felt her heart drop as they discovered the absence of the assassin they’d left only moments before. She knew that had been a possibility, but the woman was about to leave and Saorat wasn’t certain that the elf-woman or the citizens of Windhelm would be safe if she left. It had been a...

Well, at least she’d figured out that the two pursuers weren’t working together. But now Saorat only had more questions. Who were these people? What did they want with her? If they were some sort of assassins, as Saorat guessed from their hidden weapons - certainly not those of the Guild or a...

Saorat’s vision blurred as her head bounced forward and collided with the stones of the nearby wall. Her surroundings seemed to spin around her as she blinked slowly to clear her vision, still disoriented. She thought she could taste a bit of blood in her mouth. It took a few moments before she...
