Serene

Mmm I think so too, seems likely

She remained in the shadows, didnt want to show her face but said in a very faint voice

"I´m Adriana, nice to meet you folks"

Flogir

"Yes there have been other attacks. Councillor Ocato, the same councillor who has been governing the Empire since the last Septim left, has been assassinated by a minion of whoever started these attacks. The Imperial City was in a riot of madness when we managed to escape. Bad tidings, I'm afraid," Flogir said, his tone dire.

He also waved a polite greeting to Adriana. He assumed she was the shy type, so he didn't to decide to sheath Iceshard. He didn't want to look threatening. He returned his attention to Arco.

"You obviously arrived here after the battle, so I'm kinda curious of what brought you here."

Jonathan

Jonathan eyed Flogir and the two stangers with an interested eye, before he took another large swig of whatever it was he was drinking. His thirst bated, and his head light, he walked towards a window outlooking the street.

"Blasted place is a mess.. Please get out that damned book, I'd sooner like to get out of here I think." He grumbled as he traced the frame of the glass.

Satyana

"Ok Issac, you asked me if I know something more than restoration.....well yes I do, I do know of a very potent spell, in the schola of destruction. Serene taught me, and pray to all nine divines that I won´t be needed to cast it, because it will be the end of the target, I promise you!"

She noticed a strange man....and a woman hiding in the shadows when they entered Three Sisters, but the vibrations were good, no evil to find in those two....



OOC: She doesn´t recognise Serene/Adriana, and may it stay that way....for Serene´s sake!

Leyawiin

"I tend to get caught up in situations like this... I have... experiance in such situations as these you could say. What brought me here though is still unknown to me, I follow nothing but instinct in my travels and somehow I ended up taking a boat here."

Arco's eyes shifted quickly as more people started gathering around, seemed like a large group. His keen hearing caught the new woman mentioning Serene. He gave her a intruiging stare before catching what Jonathan said.

"Yeah, I'd think it's best to leave - there's nothing left for us to do here and time is a value we don't have if I understand this situation right."

Jonathan Constantine

"Abosolutely, I'm liking this man more and more by the second.." He motioned towards the door, "Shall we?"

Sodsa Hekal, Three Sister's Inn

Sodsa heard a call from a corner and saw Flint coming over with a bundle. Upon hearing Flint's reson for making it the way he did, Sodsa couldn't help but laugh. "Ha ha ha, excellent, sure hand it here." Sodsa tossed his cloak, mithral cuirass, and present shirt revealing the scars from hunts gone wrong. Sodsa didn't doubt people stared but he ignored them and pulled the glass cuirass down over his head, shifting it into place.

"If you don't mind, I'm not going to try on the greaves here, I'm sure I've already scared you enough." Sodsa smiled. "Well, not the most comfortable thing out there but I've heard thats glass for ya." Sodsa grabbed his cloak and put it back on.

"I thank you. I really don't want a repeat of that dr-." Sodsa stopped and glaced at the floor for a second frowning and then looked back up at Flint smiling again, but with a hint of worry in his eyes. "Well yeah, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go erm, try on the greaves." Sodsa gave Flint a curt nod and turned to go upstairs, where there were bound to be rooms to change in.

ooc: So, where is everyone in here? i.e. is everyone on the main floor or are some people on the top floors?

Jack: (or anyone, but i'm assuming Flint's the only one paying attention to Sodsa) You can inquire about the dream, Sodsa will talk about it. i dunno, good idea btw

Issac

"Must be a powerful spell to completely destroy the target." Issac replied, and he shrugged raising a hand that was incased in a nimbus of fire. "I proficient in destruction, mysticisum, alteration, and illusion....... But I'm not a master in any of them."

He glanced at the newcomers, the man was obviously a seasoned warrior. The woman though........ she had a slight aura of magika about her, like she was masking her power. Then Issac noticed something odd, Her eyes! He quickly cast a look into Satyana's eyes. They have the same eyes......... that beautiful violet.

Issac didn't know if it was coincidence or if there was a relation between them. Well, I could always tell 'Tyana...... He thought about it, I'll wait, perhaps things should come at their own time. "Um...... didn't we just have a talk about this, Satyana." He was addressing the fact that she had clung to him. Still he did glare slightly at the 'Altmer.' You think about hurting her, and you'll have to face me........

The Wandering Sage

A single Argonian surfaced and asked her, quite pointedly, why she had gotten in their way. "I saw what happened to Leyawiin! And I do not intend to let the Imperial City face the same Fate!" She yelled to him.

She waded into the shallow water. "Why were you and your kin sinking those boats?"


Ian, reuniting with the group

The dunmer and woman left toward the ruins of the city, leaving Ian with the odd man....... I want to hang around with this person as much as with Mehrunes Dagon..... He wordlessly turned and strode toward the Three Sisters tavern.

He spotted the group, or most of it, gathered around the building. Underneath his hood he gave the politician another icy look. Harm yourself if you must, but don't try and twist the youth of Tamriel to your self-destructive campiegn........ Ian didn't know nor care if anyone, let alone the usurper caught his mental threat.

Karn, spying on everyone

Issac and the girl lead Karn directly to the rest of the troublemakers. They both earned his revulsion when the girl clung to him for a moment. Pathetic....... His thought was almost an acusation.

Two people appeared to the group, niether had evil intentions. This wasn't what I had planned! His ambush was a gamble as it was, but he would have to revise his tactics in order to cope for this new development.......

When Ian joined them, Karn's blood boiled. Even after all these years, Ian, you still draw breath. I swore long ago to regain my honor, and I shall not be denied my vengance! He retreated and moved off to the gates. Time to create the plan for their deathes, and those new problems too..... They will die for simply coming into contact with them....

OCC: just goes to show how much of a pain it is to miss a single afternoon and morning around here......

Flint Ironwood, Nice to have ya back, Sodsa.

Flint smiled and nodded.
,,Please be my guest." The Breton replied as he handed over the greaves.
,,I assume something unpleasant happened in the past?" He inquired politely, not having heard enough to conclude that the Bosmer was talking about a particularly bad dream.

As Sodsa skipped out of sight to a more private location, Flint directed his attention to the newcomers. He didn't know what to think of the Dunmer, except that it was best not to anger him. The woman however, she looked familiar.
,,Who is she? Hmm, if things keep going like this, I probably met her those blasted twenty years ago. Hmm, Brianna? Nope, she's older than that though it is hard to see. Ah, Brianna's mother. Serene something. Great, the biggest celebrity in Tamriel and I always forget her name."

Flint nodded a greeting to both of them. For some reason, he decided not to reveal the woman's identity.
,,I don't want Sathyana to get another heart attack. Just what is her grandmother doing here? Or did I get the whole family tree messed up again? Damn."


Green-Root, with the sage.

,,So that they would not get in the way." The Argonian replied bluntly.
,,If you value the lives of those in the city, make them leave. The Silhouette will come shortly with his forces. When he arrives, escape is impossible." Having said that, Green-Root descended back into the water and swam away at a leisurely pace.

The Silhouette, Cheydinhal


The arrows of the soldiers slaughtered many easterners. It was a stalemate. Orcs poured onto the walls but the soldiers held them at bay and the fight continued. The ram was brought up but had no effect on the iron walls. The dark elf captain of the Cheydinhal forces came up and where he came orcs fell, he was a great warrior. Suddenly things changed...

Into view came a great tiger looking monster. On it's back sat a cloaked figure with purple eyes. A great aura of power surreounded this figure and the orcs suddenly fought with new vigour. The gate, however did not break and the soldier continued holding them off. Suddenly an evil sound came out of the figure. It was a spell though not those used in Tamriel. "Igh nah hidek vo di ne mogh ne huro," The Silhouette said. The spell could be heard all over the place as a screeching rumble. Suddenly the gates splinttered into hundreds of shards. The iron evaporated in an instand and the gate house crumbled...

Sodsa Hekal, Changing in the Three Sister's Inn

Sodsa heard Flint's inquiry and almost turned around to answer. Almost. Sodsa continued upstairs and went into the nearest room, and swapped his current greaves for the new ones Flint gave him. After ensuring that they fit Sodsa went downstairs to regroup. "Thanks Flint, i'm sure this will come in handy."

Flint Ironwood, Three sisters inn.

Flint laughed.
,,Well of course it will help. The only thing that beats my glass armour is a big dose of dragon skin. Combined, its impenetrable." He boasted. During the last twenty years, Flint had made the switch from freelance thief to honourable smith. Like all smiths, he was proud of his work and somewhat sensitive when it came down to criticism.

,,So, now what does that book say in the end?"

The Wandering Sage

The Argonian dived back beneath the waves, leaving her to reflect on his words. "Very well, I will do what I must to save the most lives." She whispered and began the long trek back across the bridge to the Imperial City.

The guards were in disarray, and people were flooding the streets. How is it that normal citizens can panic incoherently without rational thought? Shaking her head, she approached on of the captains.

"We have to evacuate the city, the attack on the harbor was only a skirmish, the city can not hold against a full siege. At least not without leadership, this city is a lost cuase, Captain!" The man worked his jaw for a moment, then nodded.

"You're right, we can't hold out against an invasion force. Our first concern is the civilian populace." He turned to bark at his fellow watchmen. "Men, gather the districts on the other side of the bridge, there is a posibility that there will be another attack!"

"Thank you, Captain." She whispered, and ran to the Arcane University.

Flogir, Three Sister's Inn

"I don't even know who has the book at the moment," Flogir admitting, looking around the Inn.

"Hey! Who has the book!? I suggest we pop that sucker open and have a look see, ya know what I mean?" Flogir resulting to shouting in the Inn, hoping that whoever has it would decide that now would be a good time. He then turned back to Arco and shrugged his shoulders.

"It's a large group you see, some things kinda go unnoticed to me then."

Serene

"Yes, let´s leave" Serene whispered, she had recognised Satyana, and that frightened her, the child just shouldn´t be here, there was something about that Altmer.....she recognised him too, and thsat frightened her even more.

"But just let´s stay close, I have a bad feeling of this...."


Satyana, somewhat embarrassed

"Oh Issac, I´m sorry, but it´s hard to restrain myself from......well being close to you!" the last words she whispered.

She let go of Issac but not more than just about, she felt secure with him, but the evil vibrations grew.....

Issac

"But we have to restrain ourselves, these aren't peaceful times." He whispered back to her. "I can tell that the counciler isn't what he claims to be, now that I know what to look for."

"When all of this over we'll be able to enjoy our love, but we can't right now." He consoled her. "I'm here, with you, just be calm....." Issac realized that Ian had returned, and averted his gaze. Please, Father, understand my feelings for Satyana.

Ian

Taking his eyes of the politician, Ian noticed Issac and Satyana. Both were much closer then they were three days ago. I guess I had expected this...... And Issac always meets my expectations.

He shook his head slightly, Hopefully, they'll be more controlled then they are now. Ian himself had been infatuated with someone before, but both of them saw the wisdom in moving on. I might have to speak with them later about this, but not now.....

OCC: Dalrus should have the book still

Arezt ‘Arco’ Colerion
Leyawiin

"Sure, let's go - don't want to catch any disease do we?" Arco replied the young Breton before walking towards the door.

Heading towards the door he made a quick step up close to Flogir. "What exactly is it with this ancient book?" Arco asked Flogir whilst his head shifted from side to side, seeing if anyone actually had the book.

Flint Ironwood, with the group.

Flint took his chance and moved closer to the woman of who he was now convinced to be Serene, the mother of Brianna and therefore Sathyana's grandmother.
,,The Breton is back, he knows how to change shape." Was all he whispered to the Imperial before moving on as if he'd done nothing.

Serene

Serene stood absolutely still, Flint´s words confirmed what she had suspected and now she knew the full extent of the danger her granddaughter was in.

She grabbed Arco´s arm....

"Arco, I...I think we ougtht to stay around for a while" she whispered, "Danger is coming our way...."

Arezt ‘Arco’ Colerion
Leyawiin

"Sure - have a feeling this will get worse... fast." Arco whispered back to Serene.

Hecate
Imperial City

Hecate had eaten all food he had found in the small shack and was spreading his gear out on the bed. He took a close look, checking that he had all his equipment before he started taking on his thin leather armor. With most of his armor strapped on tight he felt something inside his curiass, he reached in and pulled out an odd looking amulet. It was the amulet Veric gave him twenty years ago - allowed him to both communicate with Veric along with shapeshifting.

This will come in handy...

Hecate sheathed his weapons and attached his cloak and turned towards the door and was about to take on the amulet when he heard the guards calling outside the shack for everyone to get out. Not even a moment later, two guards knocked the door open and was about to grab Hecate by the arm - but stopped and stood there shocked for a moment before reaching for their weapons - knowing this was Hecate who had escaped from the Imperial Prison.

The first guard was about to draw his sword, but Hecate launched forward unsheathing his katana and drove it into the guards throat before quickly pulling it back out and going into a spin - unleashing two quick strikes towards the second guard who stood no chance and fel to the floor, weapon still in it's sheath.

Hecate cleaned the blood off on his bed sheets before sheathing his katana on his back and taking on the amulet slowly. His face went black and distorted with small ripples before he suddenly reappeared as a young Breton - all in a flash. Hecate sprinted outside and headed towards the main gate, ignoring the guards trying to rally him with the others.
