Aerina (Thinking): By the gods I've been waiting hours...

Servant: The Captain will see you now.

Aerina: About time

 

Aerina: Thorygg! Long time no see. 

Thorygg: Aerina? What are you doing here? Come to rejoin the guard?

Aerina: I told you... I refuse to serve under Stormcloak colours... It's the reason I left.

Aerina: Besides... I'm actually here for information.

 

Thorygg: Information?

Aerina: The Orsinium resistance are back... I have some... Personal issues I need to settle.

Aerina: Would you happen to know anything about them? Where they may be hiding?

Thorygg: We killed them off years ago...

Thorygg: Besides... We don't discuss investigative leads with Citizens... Sorry Aerina.

 

(Aerina leans over the table with a suggestive pose)

Aerina: So you do know something then?

Thorygg: You can shake your tits all you want? I'm not giving out any intelligence we have on enemy positions...

(She walks back to the door but stops and seductively looks back)

Aerina: Thats a shame... I was going to... "pay" you for your time

Thorygg: *sigh*... You haven't changed at all... Meet me behind the barracks in five minutes

 

 

(They meet up out the back of the Barracks building)

Aerina: So what do you know?

Thorygg: Hold on... What about my "Payment"?

Aerina: *Taking her shirt off* Fine... Well... what are you waiting for?

 

Thorygg: Just like... old times...

Aerina: You never... could... resist

 

Thorygg: You should've... been... a stormcloak

Aerina: I'm half... elf... they would've.. killed me

Thorygg: Skyrim.. is in.. your veins... just as much... as mine

 

Aerina: You still want to have a conversations at the worst time you know.

Thorygg: Old habits hey?

Aerina: So... what do you know?

Thorygg: Not much... Only that we arrested one of the owners from Half Moon Mill for multiple missed tax payments...

Thorygg: He kept talking about an Orc camp out in the woods.

 

Aerina: That's all you have? Hmm, not much to go on.

Thorygg: *Jokingly* Be grateful, I could throw you in prison for soliciting a guard.

Aerina: Where is he now?

Thorygg: Back at his mill I guess, we released him 2 days ago.

 

Aerina: I guess I will go pay him a visit...

Aerina: Oh... what you said about Skyrim running in my veins... Thank you... That means a lot.

Thorygg: Don't thank me... it's true...

Thorygg: *Pause* You sure I can't convince you to join us?

Aerina: Afraid not... The Dominion are the real enemy... not the Empire or the Stormcloaks

Thorygg: Takes nerve for someone like you to say that. Well... farewell Aerina.

Aerina: Farewell Thorygg... stay safe

 

Aerina (Thinking): Gods it's been years since I've been inside this tavern.

Aerina: Hopefully Astrid has been okay.

 

 

Aerina: By the nine it's busy in here...

(Aerina heads over to the bar for a drink but waits for a while as the bartender is away from the counter)

 

(Aerina turns round and spots Astrid sitting on a bench next to a stranger)

Aerina: There you are! Are you okay over here?

Astrid: *Slurred* Oh hei... yesh... jhust telling my fruend here stories of murrowind

Aerina: *Laughing* Glad to see you're making friends.

 

Aerina: You are hammered! Come on... you could use some sleep I think.

Astrid (Drunk): No... I thinks yous could do withs a drinchs too... urgh... I feel shick...

Aerina: Follow me... lets get you some air.

Astrid: Only ifs you promish to havs a drinks too
Aerina *Laughing* Fine...

 

Aerina (Thinking): Urgh... Headache....

(She scoots up against the rock and sees Astrid laying in front of her)

Aerina: *Burp* How drunk did we get last night?

 

(Aerina kneels down beside Astrid and notices her shirt is missing)

Aerina: Very drunk it would seem...

Aerina: Astrid... Wake up...

Astrid: Urgh... I feel like my head has fallen off.

Aerina: Well... It's not the only thing that has fallen off!

 

 

(Astrid shoots up in shock)

Astrid: My top! By the gods my tits are out!

Aerina: *Laughing* It's okay Astrid... I kept the shirt you gave me.

Astrid: Oh by Azura... Thank you Sis.

Aerina: How drunk were we last night?

Astrid: Oh... I vaguely remember taking my top off and trying to dive into the river below us.

Astrid: But I'm sure you stopped me...

Aerina: So pretty drunk then!

Aerina: Lets go find some food... I have to tell you about a lead I found anyway...
