Tish Stone-Flower

Tell me Angela, what happend next?

Angela

Well, then the Cat threw the bucket at him, knocking the Thief out cold

Tish Stone-Flower

The very same bucket he was just using?

Angela

Yes, it covered the Thief from head to toe in his shit, the smell alone knocked him out cold.

Tish Stone-Flower

Gods! That sounds like justice to me

Angela

Yeah well, turns out that little stunt also got him very sick

Tish Stone-Flower

And?

Angela

He died a few days later

Tish Stone-Flower

The story was funny up to that point

Angela

Yes it was, who knew getting shit thrown at you could be so deadly

Tish Stone-Flower

I try to avoid objects being thrown at me let alone shit, Gods the world can be so cruel sometimes.

Angela

Who would throw anything at you? Your too beautiful, you would blind them

Tish Stone-Flower

Thank you for your flattery friend.

Angela

Just so you know, If I caught you stealing from me and only had a bucket of shit to throw I'd rather let you get away with it then cleaning up that mess

Tish Stone-Flower

Let us agree to never throw anything at one another then?

Angela

I agree to that Sister, hah. Hey there should be a Stormcloak Camp near by, I want to check it out see if I can help the wounded. Do you mind?

Tish Stone-Flower

Of course not, we travel this path together but why would they still be here? The War is over, whats going to be a problem for Stormcloaks these days?

Angela

Bandits, Trolls, Blood Thirsty Orcs and Vampires not to mention the creepy Falmer oh and of course any Imperial Remnant in the area

Tish Stone-Flower

Ah you make a fair point friend

Angela

So you got any neat stories to tell?

Tish Stone-Flower

Plenty, but I fear none are as good as yours

Angela

Come on, atleast try Tish

Tish Stone-Flower

Hmm, there was this time I and Aria Bal faught a massive monster horde of Banekin in Hammerfell

Angela

What's a Banekin?

Tish Stone-Flower

They are these small creatures that come from Coldharbour you know where Aria came from anyway, they were tough but Aria and I defeated them before they could harm anymore innocents

Angela

I'd like to meet this Aria Bal one day, I keep hearing so much about her

Tish Stone-Flower

She is everything they say and more. But please do not tell her I said that though, teasing her is fun. Anyway your turn

Angela

Wait you never told me the story, you told me of a story but not the whole story so nice try Tish but you still need to tell me the whole thing.

Tish Stone-Flower

Must I?

Angela

Yes

Tish Stone-Flower

Very well, Aria came to me with a letter from someone important I forget the name at the moment but they were from Hammerfell. It was about strange attacks that had been going on unlike anything anyone had seen before so we headed there and investigated.

Angela

I see, a long journey to say the least

Tish Stone-Flower

So It turns out that a group of Mages had been studying Daedric Scrolls recovered from the Interregnum days.

Angela

What's the Interregnum?

Tish Stone-Flower

I also had to ask that question, it was when Molag Bal invaded Tamriel and his dark anchors unleashed hordes of Daedra across it

Angela

Those were dark times indeed

Tish Stone-Flower

Anyway these Mages somehow summoned a horde of these creatures but were unable to control them

Angela

I think I know where this story is going

Tish Stone-Flower

They broke free of their control and killed the mages then went wild across Hammerfell. Took Aria and I sometime to locate them and hunt them down. It is funny Aria was... so focused on this task and I've seen her focused before on other missions but this, she was determined to kill these things to the last. I never asked her why but I could tell she not herself those days

Angela

I would think Aria has her reasons, maybe because they are from the same Relm she has a connection of sorts. There is a great amount of theories to come of this for sure

Tish Stone-Flower

Well that is the thing Aria also never took payment for it, after we killed the creatures Aria buried them in a hole and burned them. Said they could still be a threat if we did not burn them. Anyway after that she rode off home.

Angela

I see

Tish Stone-Flower

Aria always collects payment for the jobs we do. Normally can sweet talk the Jarl or whoever it is into giving us more but to just refuse it. I found that odd

Angela

I'll ask her if I run into her at some point

Tish Stone-Flower

As will I if--

Angela

I hear it too

Tish Stone-Flower

By the Gods!

Angela

What happend here?

Tish Stone-Flower

Even the horses were killed, think it was Imperial Remnant?

Angela

This was not a battle Tish, this a slaughter

Tish Stone-Flower

So many dead

Angela

I know

Tish Stone-Flower

Even the wounded were not spared.

Angela

I sense darkness

Tish Stone-Flower

Darkness?

Angela

Yes... Darkness

Tish Stone-Flower

You mean like a Necromancer?

Angela

No, a Necromancer would have taken the dead. No this was no Necromancer

Tish Stone-Flower

Then what, what could have done this?

Angela

A Daedra
