Lord Harkon

You're late!

Mileena

A thousand pardons Count Harkon, I had other duties that

delayed my arrival

Lord Harkon

I trust these "other duties" were more important then carrying out our Queens orders?

Mileena

These were the Queens orders.

Lord Harkon

Of course

Mileena

You doubt me?

Lord Harkon

Of course not. Our Queen trusts you above all else to carry out her command, if you were doing as you were told to then I commend you for it. But, if you were stalling this meeting for some other reason. Well, the Queen would need to hear of this Mileena

Mileena

Skip the bullshit and get to the point Harkon

Lord Harkon

What happend to Count?

Mileena

Just tell me why am I here?

Lord Harkon

Hmm, I thought you were trained better then this? At Court your so formal, so polite but out of the Queens sight your the very opposite to how you should be.

Mileena

Maybe I only show respect to those of the Court who deserve it, you do not deserve my respect Count. The only reason I am here is because our Queen is tired of ignoring your pleading messages

Lord Harkon

Lies, lies and more lies. Were you not protected by our Queen. I would have turned you to dust for your disrespect shown to me over the centuries. Now, onto the important matters

Mileena

Well.... I'm waiting

Lord Harkon

There has been a development here in Skyrim. The Civil War has ended and the Stormcloaks have won. Things have started to calm down across Skyrim now

Mileena

Yes, word reached us in High Rock a few days before I departed.

Did you send for me just to tell me this?

Lord Harkon

I sent for you because a great threat is about to erupt in Skyrim. With the chaos caused by the Civil War and now the return of Dragons Skyrim is a land full of spilled blood, so tell me what do Vampires desire above all else Mileena?

Mileena

Peace and quiet?

Lord Harkon

Blood, I have it on good word that a ruin in the Rift that was thought lost to time has been re-discovered.

By a Clan of Rogue Vampires no less

Mileena

So command them to kneel and be done with it

Lord Harkon

They do not listen to reason, just like you. I've tried to be civil with them but... you know how rogue Vampires can be. Now they are a threat to the local mortal population perhaps even all of Skyrim?

Mileena

How so?

Lord Harkon

Have you heard of the legend of the "Red Water"?

Mileena

No... can't say I have

Lord Harkon

It is a spring full of blood, well it's not blood for really. It is magic in nature or so the legend go. The mortals named it Red Water, this spring is located in the ruin uncovered by these Vampires and if they discover it, well we could have a serious problem

Mileena

What makes you think that?

Lord Harkon

In small doses this "Red Water" is harmless to mortals, but in large dosses it is deadly. The Vampires have been using it as a Drug to lure in mortals for their blood and cover up their real operation.

Mileena

Still does not sound like a issue for me, I'm sure the mortals will deal with it in time

Lord Harkon

Ah, now that is where you wrong. You see, the "Red Water" maybe deadly to them, but to us it is a gift from Lord Molag Bal. It makes us stronger, more powerful

Mileena

Meaning the Vampires are drugged up too?

Lord Harkon

Most likey they have been using it yes, abusing it

Mileena

Why the fuck am I here if I'm needed elsewhere across Skyrim?

Lord Harkon

I wanted to see our Queens most loyal servant

Mileena

Fuck off!

Lord Harkon

Such rudeness

Mileena

The Queen will hear of this Harkon

Lord Harkon

Oh, I'm sure she will

Mileena

Good day you bastard of a Count

Lord Harkon

Hmm, and good day to you Mileena, you whore of a follower

 

 

 

 

 

Many many centuries ago

Mivlasa Dreth

What's going on, where am I?

Volrina Quarra

Get moving meat!

Mivlasa Dreth

Who- who are you, where am I?

Volrina Quarra

I said keep moving! Your lucky we're full up at the moment so you get the nicer cells

Mivlasa Dreth

Full up, what do you mean?

Volrina Quarra

Shut up and get in the cell meat!

Mivlasa Dreth

Okay okay, please don't hurt me

Volrina Quarra

There, was that so hard?

Mivlasa Dreth

Please, I'm an so confused. Where am I?

Volrina Quarra

Ah, your home. Your new home that is.

Mivlasa Dreth

Home? This is not my home

Volrina Quarra

It is now, get used to it. You'll be here for some time

Mivlasa Dreth

Hello? You in the other cell, can you hear me?

Mileena

Be quiet!

Mivlasa Dreth

Please, I am confused. Where am I?

Mileena

She told you, your home. This is your new home now.

Mivlasa Dreth

But... but I have-

Mileena

Be silent!

Mivlasa Dreth

Whats your name?

Mileena

Mileena, but it doesn't matter, you wont be here long enough to remember it

Mivlasa Dreth

What do you mean I wont be here?

Mileena

Fuck! She should have cut out your tongue, you talk too much!

Now be silent MEAT!

Mivlasa Dreth

Okay..

Mileena

Finally!

Mileena

There you are

Mileena

Lullaby

Lullaby

You know sneaking up on people is rude?

Mileena

Is it?

Lullaby

Fuck if I know, so what do I owe the pleasure Mileena?

Mileena

I have need of information

Lullaby

Information? I'm not a Information dealer. I'm just a Vampire who--

Mileena

Likes long walks on the beaches and a cup of blood before bed.

Yes, I know.

Lullaby

So you do care after all then

Mileena

Heh, I guess I do

Lullaby

It's good to see you Mileena, whats it been 50 years?

Mileena

60 years Lullaby, but I'm glad to see you've not gotten yourself into too much trouble since then. One day I fear you will be dust and I'll never see you again

Lullaby

Hah! Oh no, you are stuck with me forever Mileena.

I am never gonna die, again

Mileena

Heh, yeah same here.

Lullaby

So, what is it you want to know Mileena?

Mileena

I need to know if there have been any Vampire attacks around here or if people have been going missing around this hold? Anything strange going on really

Lullaby

These days Skyrim is a strange place, first Dragons return from the dead and then there was that weird shouting coming from the mountain. I tell you I'm half ready to leave and go to Hammerfell for a few decades

Mileena

Tempting as it is to join you, I need to know Lullaby

Lullaby

Lets get a drink, celebrate our reunion.

Mileena

Very well, talk and celebrate at the same time then

Lullaby

There has been talk of strange things happening around here but with the Bandit Gangs fighting most of it is spun up by them to frighten one another You know talk of a big bad bear that blows down an entire house with a single puff and shit

Mileena

That's a children's story from a book Lullaby

Lullaby

Well shit, I thought they meant that head Stormcloak guy

Mileena

Oh, hmm yes that could be them. Either way, what of Vampires?

Lullaby

Nothing really, this region is pretty empty of our kind. There is a big Gang of Necromancers and then there are few Bandit Gangs in the surrounding areas.

Mileena

Ah yes, of course. Hear anything about a Drug Den?

Lullaby

Drug Den? No, why would I know about? I don't do drugs!

Mileena

There is a rumor going around that a new type of blood has been found. Old and powerful blood

Lullaby

Old blood?

Mileena

Yes, blood so powerful it can make a Vampire stronger then ever before

Lullaby

Like your blood?

Mileena

No, we are talking stronger then mine

Lullaby

Well shit, that sounds scary

Mileena

Yes, very. Worst of all its deadly to mortals

Lullaby

And thats a bad thing because?

Mileena

The Queen wants peace and order, not chaos. This could bring chaos down on us all in a massive scale

Lullaby

It addictive?

Mileena

Yes, very. From what Lord Harkon's library said about it anyway.

Lullaby

You saw Harkon?

Mileena

I did. He summoned me from High Rock because of this matter

Lullaby

You two?

Mileena

NO!

Lullaby

Thought you had a thing for him?

Mileena

No, he has a thing for me. And I said no so now she told lies at Court that we fucked and that we were together and shit. Now everyone thinks... 

Lullaby

I'm fucking with you

Mileena

Of course you are, fuck! Where is that drink?

Lullaby

Let's try and get drunk sister

Mileena

Yes, lets try and do the impossible once more

Nora Karlov

The Council have come to an agreement. I'm sorry Mileena, but you brought this on yourself. I can't do anything further for you

Mileena

What did you vote for Baroness?

Nora Karlov

I... I'm sorry. You left me no choice, the council demanded blood.

They will set an example with you.

Mileena

And how will they do it?

Nora Karlov

Your to be executed, on full display

Mileena

Will you be there?

Nora Karlov

No, I must return to Skyrim

Mileena

So... this is goodbye?

Nora Karlov

Yes I'm afraid it is. But, I've seen to it your remains are brought to me, at my Manor. There you will rest for all entirety.

That is all I can do for you now

Mileena

Thank you, I know I have not been the best friend to you, but I have always tried to put aside my hatred for you.

Nora Karlov

I know you have, good bye Mileena

Mileena

Good bye Nora

Mileena

She can do better then me anyway, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA  

Mileena

HAH HAAH EH HAH

Mivlasa Dreth

Hey, HEY!

Mileena

Leave me be!

Mivlasa Dreth

Your a Vampire, like them. So why are you in a cell like me?

Mileena

I've... done things, things even my kind see as wrong.

So I am to be executed.

Mivlasa Dreth

What did you do?

Mileena

You'd prefer not to hear it, trust me

Mivlasa Dreth

Please, we have been stuck together in this place for Gods, how long have I been here?

Mileena

41 Days, but I've been here longer then that.

Mivlasa Dreth

How long have you been in here?

Mileena

About a decade

Mivlasa Dreth

You've been in here for 10 years?

Mileena

Near enough yes, the fools have been debating on what to do with me for some time now. Were I a lower class of Vampire I'd have been turned into ash long ago. But, the blood that runs though my veins is old, and powerful

Mivlasa Dreth

What does that mean?

Mileena

I was turned by a very old and powerful Vampire.

One I'm sure even you've heard of

Mivlasa Dreth

Who?

Mileena

Lamae Bal, the first Vampire.

Mivlasa Dreth

Your... that old?

Mileena

I am.

Mivlasa Dreth

But what did you do to get them to throw you into a cell?

Mileena

You wanna know?

Mivlasa Dreth

Yes, it's been bugging me since I saw you. What does a Vampire do to get thrown in here with us mortals?

Mileena

Well...

Mileena

Over my life time I have consumed a lot of blood and I mean a lot. With each drop you only get more hungry so you can imagine my hunger now. Well, I'd been traveling though Skyrim trying to find a cave or something to hide from the Sun. I came across a small town, I planned to hide there in a place no one would see me. But, as I got closer I could smell it, it was in the air. Blood, this village had held some celebration of sorts. I tried to turn away but... it caught me, I... lost control it overwhelmed me. The lust for blood s a Vampires true weakness, because we can never full fill it. We are cursed to be hungry. Anyway, when I awoke I... was covered from head to toe in it. Blood. I'd slaughtered everyone, not just the men, but the woman and children too. The animals, I'd drained everything with a heart beat in that village. They found me, and threw me in here.

Mivlasa Dreth

By the Gods... you, your

Mileena

And how you see why you regret your action of asking

Mivlasa Dreth

Your a Monster!

Mileena

That I am, little Dunmer

Mivlasa Dreth

Gods.... Guard! Guard!

Mileena

Be silent! I'd advise you to sit and pray to all you Gods Elf.

Your gonna need them because your time is almost up

Mivlasa Dreth

Ye... yes, pray

Mileena

Better start praying

Mivlasa Dreth

By the nine

Mileena

Heh... still got it

Mileena

Wha... what happend?

Lullaby

You want the long version or the short version?

Mileena

Lullaby, what happend?

Lullaby

So, turns out these fools weren't selling real blood

Mileena

What?

Lullaby

The Blood we drank, it was not real, heck you went into some kind of rage fit and cut up everyone here... almost hit me too if not for my ability to knock you on your face

Mileena

Wait... I did this?

Lullaby

Sure did. Never seen you so, pissed of before. Your cool now right?

Mileena

I...

Lullaby

Hah ha I'm joking with you, no seems someone can't hold their liqueur Mileena

Mileena

What do you mean I can't, I'm a Vampire!

Lullaby

Yeah and so am I, let I'm still standing here uneffected

Mileena

Heh, that makes no sense

Lullaby

Maybe that special blood inside you makes you weaker to alcohol?

Mileena

Shut up. I can go outside in the sun, I can survive near death fatalities but your telling me I can't hold my liqueur, yeah makes total sense now that I think about it

Lullaby

Maybe, perhaps it is under certain circumstances I mean this is not the first time we have drunk before, well not this much atleast

Mileena

So, what happend here really?

Lullaby

Well they kind of got a little angry, so I kinda got a little angry too and well, shit happend, as you can see before you

Mileena

Why did they get angry?

Lullaby

Because you picked a fight with them and knocked that guy on his ass, then they tried to group up on you and well... shit happend. You were kinda swinging your sword all over the place, I think you killed that guy over, rest are due to yours truly and her magical talents

Mileena

Oh no, the Queen can not hear of this

Lullaby

Oh really?

Mileena

Lullaby, I am Hand of the Queen. I serve her loyally and faithfully, if word was to get out that I can not hold my drink I would be made a fool of at court.

Lullaby

Relax, I've covered for you in the past. I'll cover for you now, no one will know of what happend here. Pinky promise

Mileena

No no, word must reach of what happend here. The part where we killed them all yes

Lullaby

Fine, anyone asks you killed them all, okay

Mileena

Thank you

Lullaby

Seems we have a guest

Mileena

<Hisses at shadow>

Lullaby

Come out shadow

???

You two did this?

Lullaby

Well... look who it is?

Mileena

You know this mortal?

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Lullaby, pleasure as always

Lullaby

She's a friend, of sorts well not really sorts uh... Mileena Karlov meet Gormaka Ghost-Heart: Leader of the Lost Knife Gang and ally of Count Henskill and his Court

Mileena

Ah, yes of course. The great Gormaka Ghost-Heart, thought you'd be an Orc?

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Mileena Karlov huh? Never heard of you

Lullaby

Thats kind of the point, no one is meant to shes really secretive

Mileena

Why are you here Bandit?

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

I came here to remind these fools that they are in my territory and need to pay up, but most likey I would have killed them all. So, you've done me a service

Lullaby

Heh, your welcome

Mileena

A bunch of Skooma addicts and sadistic assholes are no match for even a whelp with pickaxe, even a drunk one. This was nothing

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Oh no, this is something. I've never seen two Vampires getting so well along, you two must have known one another for a long time?

Lullaby

400, 500 maybe 600 years?

Mileena

It's closer to 700 I'm sure, although maybe more I've lost count decades ago

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

We must look like mere ants to you?

Mileena

I think you look like Giants compared to us

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Why?

Mileena

Being an immortal being is not all it cracks up to be. At least you get to enjoy a warm meal and feel the love of someone close to you. All of that is dead for us, one say you will rest while we are still here un resting.

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Well, shit

Lullaby

Hey, I never asked before. Whats with the no pants thing?

Mileena

The what? Oh!

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

I was raised to always exploit a weakness by my uncle. Most people who see me notice that my crotch is not covered. That gives me enough time to shove my dagger though their throat or so on. And yes, I am wearing underwear, its an illusion casted upon the armor itself to give it this look.

Lullaby

Wait, so all those woman walking around in like bikini armor are not really walking around in bikini armor?

Mileena

There is a Blacksmith in Riverwood who makes it. But I always assumed it was magically enhanced to look like that, I mean look at what I'm wearing. It's not really this revealing its a spell 

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Could have fooled me.

Lullaby

Huh, never knew that.

Mileena

If your the leader of the Gang then you know all about this area, its going ons and such Gormaka

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

I know about everything that is going on in my hold, why do you ask?

Mileena

I'm seeking a group of Vampires not part of any Clan. They have taken up as Drug Dealers and have been selling for a short while now

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Hmm, there are many who run Drugs though my territory. You've gotta give me more

Mileena

The Drug contains a Red Substance. We call it "Red Water"

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Hmm, give me a moment to think

Mileena

This is a matter or life and death Gormaka

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Hmm, there is a new operation run by some shady bastards not too far from here. They pay me a lot of coin so I don't care too much but, still why are you interested in them Vampire?

Lullaby

They are selling a substance that really fucks you up once you take it. They then drain you of your blood and enthrall you to serve them. <Mileena looks shocked at Lullaby>

What? Your a very talkative drunk

Mileena

This drug also makes Vampires stronger, but less stable mentally.

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

So your saying a bunch of drugged up Vampires with a bunch of drugged up thralls are paying me to keep quiet about there possible end of the world drug?

Mileena

Not end of the word no, but it would be very dangerous if it got into the water stream. It is possible a lot of the wild life around here would die off, then what would you eat?

Gormaka Ghost-Heart
Have you ever tried Dunmer Girls? No, heh. Very well, do what you need from me Vampire?

Mileena

It's location.

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

I told you, not too far from here. Used to be some old farmers house but well he disappeared and they took over it.

Mileena

Point to it on my map, and I'll be deal with them

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Now how hold on. Whats in this for me?

Your robbing me for a large part of my income. I need to know I'll be getting something out of this?

Lullaby

How about your life, and the fact that your entire crew get to live?

Mileena

You don't care about any of them. You only care about you. I know your kind, dealt with them for a long time. We killed these fools for you, that makes us even

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Not even close Vampire. These little fights did not generate a lot of coin for me but a Drug Den does. We are talking 200 gold a week, I need something to keep my income sustainable. I'm in the middle of a war between two rival Gangs. I need something to replace it

Lullaby

Don't you have Vampire support?

Mileena

The Queen forbade it. But, I can speak to her. When she hears you helped us you'll get your reward Gormaka, your helping the Queen of the Underworld after all

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Queen, you have a Vampire Queen?

Lullaby

We do. So, all good now?

Mileena

Yes, we are. Come Lullaby. Gormaka has a request to make

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Very well. You'll find the ruined farmhouse near the Rift Watchtower short walk from Shors Stone.

Lullaby

Thank you citizen for serving your Queen. Good day

Mileena

Take your request to Count Henskill. He will pass it on to our Queen

Gormaka Ghost-Heart

Very well. Do what you gotta do. I'll do what I gotta do

Telka

Shame, that Dunmer had so much potential

Telka

Oh well, the Masters will be pleased either way

Telka

Greetings my Lady.

I have been asked to inform you that your requested meal will be arriving soon.

Mileena

Good, one last meal

Telka

Yes, was there anything else you desired before, you know?

Mileena

No, that is it

Telka

Very good my Lady

Mileena

And now I see why they keep you around Telka

Telka

I'm just happy to serve my Lady. Your kind have been very good to me

Volrina Quarra

Have we now?

Telka

Yes Mistress Quarra

Volrina Quarra

Well as good as we have been Telka, you know the rules for talking to the prisoners?

Telka

Yes Mistress, but Master Voris asked to me speak with Lady Mileena on his behalf. About her last meal and other final perpetration for her execution

Volrina Quarra

I see, and have you carried out your tasks for the day?

Telka

Yes Mistress Quarra

Volrina Quarra

Then return to your Quarters after you pass on Lady Mileena's final requests

Telka

Yes Mistress Quarra

Volrina Quarra

Telka is a good servant. We are lucky to have her here at the Castle.

Mileena

She serves her purpose well I'll agree. But I fail to see why you are here Volrina?

Volrina Quarra

Thought I'd come say my good byes to an old friend

Mileena

We are, nor were we ever friends

Volrina Quarra

Oh Mileena, stop you tease me.

I recall us sharing a bed from time to time

Mileena

Heh, and you think that makes us friends, because we had sex?

Volrina Quarra

HAHA no, of course not.

Mileena

Then why come, just to mock me?

Volrina Quarra

Well, there was another matter but it was more of to tease you Mileena, not mock.

Mileena

And this other matter you speak off?

Volrina Quarra

Someone wants to see you, before your dead, well deader

Mileena

Really? Well you can tell Count Harkon to go find his wife in hiding and fuck her instead. I've had my fill of lusts for one life time

Volrina Quarra

Lord Harkon did not send me, but I'll pass on your message if I see him again

Mileena

Haha, and this is why I tolerate you Volrina

Volrina Quarra

Now now Mileena, we are member's of our Queens Court. Nothing else

Mileena

So, who wants to see me before I an returned to the ground?

Volrina Quarra

That I am not allowed to tell, nor can anyone else know

Mileena

So, this person is freeing a wanted criminal, was it Nora?

Volrina Quarra

Ah, I'm not freeing you and Nora to her best effects failed to free you. So, no it was not Nora and you'll be coming with me

Mileena

Damn you Volrina

Volrina Quarra

Yes, damn me. I'm just the messenger here Mileena

Mileena

Perhaps we are friends after all?

Volrina Quarra

Oh shh, before you ruin the moment we are having here

Mileena

Just take me--

Volrina Quarra

Just take you? Mileena what would people think of me?

Mileena

Hah, shut up

Volrina Quarra

Alright, hands were I can see them

Mileena

Yes Mistress Quarra

Volrina Quarra

Shut up!

Mileena

What?

Volrina Quarra

AHAHAHAA

Mileena

AHAHAHA

Volrina Quarra

Alright, I'm serious hands where I can see them

Mileena

Alright alright geez

Volrina Quarra

Just so you know, if you do try to escape I am allowed to kill you

Mileena

Kill me? Now, my dear Quarra why would you do that? Thought we were friends

Volrina Quarra

Just shut up and move it

Mileena

Yes Mistress

Volrina Quarra

And don't call me Mistress, it's Volrina to you

Mileena

Yes, Mistress Volrina

Volrina Quarra

You know, on second thought stay here and die. See if care?

Mileena

Come on, lets get this over with

Volrina Quarra

Easy now Mileena

Mileena

Hey hey okay I'm going

Volrina Quarra

I'd hate to have to poke you with the pointy end Mileena

Mileena

Thought you liked poking me though?

Volrina Quarra

Oh do shut up!
