"Ugh..." I say. My head HURTS.
"Well, well, well... your finally awake." a woman walks toward me.
"You aren't Rolaf..." I look up at her.
"I know I'm not." she laughs.
"Who are you..." I ask.
"I am Astrid." she takes off her mask.
"I-I... What do you want with me?" I ask her. I turn my eyes away from her.
"To kill 3 people."
"What did they do?"
"Fultheim killed many people. Alea is a housewife with six kids and no husband. Vasha is a Khajiit-" she starts.
"I shall never kill a cat." I say.
"thief, murderer, and rapist." she says, ignoring my comment.
"That changes everything." I say.
"So?" she smiles.
"I will do it. Set me free first." I say.
She cuts my binds.
"Weapon?" I ask her.
"What do you want?"
"I want my sword, dagger, and Wuuthrad back."
"Ah, yes." she smiles. She hands me my arms back.
"Now." I say.
"There they are. Quite the pretty lot, are they not?" she laughs.
"Yes... why are." I smile, coyly.
"Finally, something we agree with!" she looks at me. Ugh... why is it so tempting to want to take her to bed?!
"Is something wrong?" she asks.
"N-no." I say, blushing.
"Oh um... what is your sexuality." she asks, uncomfortably.
"I'm a lesbian. Are you one, too, or bi?" I ask with a smile.
"No. I have a husband." she says.
The last word hit me like a giant hitting the ground and sending me flying. What did I expect? A woman as beautiful as she is... I inhale deeply and exhale.

I walk up to the cat-man.
"I hope you made peace with your gods." I say. Why do I suddenly care? I think of my father... I think of them as him. I'm back to being calm...
"Alkosh, Azurah, Baan Dar, Hermorah, Hircine, Ius, Ja-Kha'jay, Jode, Jone, Khenarthi, Lorkhaj, Mara, Merrunz, Mafala, Magrus, Namiira, Rajhin, Riddle'Thar, Sangiin, Sheggorath, S'rendarr, and Y'ffer?" he asks.
"Hermorah, Hircine, Mara, and Sheggorath... I know those ones." I say, quietly.
"Sure." he says. I pull out my sword and behead him quickly.
The woman screams.
"QUIET OR YOUR NEXT!" I say.

"Shor, Mara, Dibella, Kynareth, Akatosh. Divines, please help me." the other man whispers.
I walk over to him. I pull out Wuuthrad and make quick work of him. The lady is left.
I kill her with my dagger before she even makes a sound.

"You did nicely." Astrid says.
"Thank you." I say. She gives me instructions to get to the base.
