"What am I getting at?" Niran said very loudly and angrily "I told them, I sold my family out to the Imperial legion . . ." he became qiuet and sat down. Looking straight forward, but not at Sel, just into air.
"They brought me into a little room, tied me to a chair," he began "then they asked me questions, Who did this, and who gave you that. When they came to the question of how I got money for my weapons I wouldn't say."
"A dunmer came into the room, he threatened me with his weapon, then cut me a little. I finally gave in and told them who gave me the money."
He paused and said "It was my sister."
"They hired an assasin, he came to my house and killed my sister while I was gone. My mother witnessed it so he killed her too. I came home and saw them dead on the floor, a pool of blood surrounding the area where they were. I -" Niran paused, should he say it "I cried like a little boy. Until two imperial guards showed up at my door. They knew I was the one who had killed their buddies, so they beat the hell out of me. I lay on the ground just inside the door until in the morning two others came. They told me I was going to prison for the murders of the imperial officers. Then they dragged me down the road, my sister's and mother's bodies still lying in the middle of the floor, no one cared."
