Dawnguard Retold Season 4 - Part 8: The Lioness (Fixed)
*Slurp*
Mmmm...
*Lick*
Hmm...
...
Well, well. If it isn't our little Vexy-cat.
I knew you missed me.
Pff... As if.
Vex! What brings you back to the Flaggon.
I'm looking for someone...
Do you know anything about a priest named Florentius?
Florentius? I don't know anything about that guy.
Really Vekel?
We both know if anyone in Riften knows rumors, it's you.
I said I don't know.
Vex...
What?
We should probably get going.
...
*Sigh* That was helpful.
Florentius you say?
I can tell you somethin' interesting about him... In private.
...
She's still just drinking.
Even I can't drink that much...
Ugh, this is a waste of time. We should just go confront her.
And give ourselves away to a possible vampire?
No... We should follow her.
Then I guess we may be here for a while.
It sure seems like it.
What's your story Mjoll? Why are you helping us?
It's complicated...
I made someone a promise.
Years ago, I used to be an adventurer.
I was exploring an old ruin: Mzinchaleft.
Ma-zinch-a what?
*Sigh* It's an underground Dwarven city.
I thought I knew what I was getting myself into...
I'd been a fighter all my life.
I earned the name Mjoll The Lioness.
Still, I knew Dwarven ruins were dangerous.
Even after their extinction,
the Dwarves' automatons still roam the halls...
...Searching for any intruder who dares to trespass.
But it wasn't the machines that were the problem that day.
There are rumors...
Rumors of a depraved race of elves that lives in the deep.
It's all true.
I was trapped down there with those creatures for three days.
I narrowly escaped with my life.
I would have died if it weren't for Aerin.
He took me to his home in Riften and nursed me back to health.
!!!
He rescued me from the brink of death.
After seeing the state this city was in...
I vowed to stay and rid it of crime and corruption.
Wait a moment...
Where did she go?
UGGH... I hardly looked away for a minute.
Fantastic.
Excuse me, Keerava...
Who was that girl at the bar?
*Chuckle* Let me guess - Your friend has the hots?
Her name is Laelette - Haelga's neice or something...
Sorry to break it to you son, but she's no saint.
Laelette works at The Bunkhouse across the canal.
Nasty place...
One more thing,
would you happen to know if a man named Florentius was in town?
...
I don't know where you heard that name, but you best stop saying it.
Another word about that guy and I'll kick you out the inn.
!
*Slam*
There you are.
Sorry I took so long.
Are we sleeping at the inn? It's getting late.
I was thinking you and Agmaer could sleep with me at Aerin's house.
I'm fine with that.
Will he be okay with that? We're never even met him.
WHAT?!?
Now you've invited them into my house without asking?
You hardly know these people!
Aerin please, they are trying to help our city...
You know... It would mean a lot to me if you let them stay.
And maybe we can take our relationship to the next level...
!
You mean...
You're ready for that?
...Fine, they can stay.
I knew we could come to an agreement.
