(Maximus, Serana, Miraak, Ralof, Hadvar, Galmar, Rikke, Malpen, Sialius, Ulfric, Tullius, and the knights are gathered)

Sialius: Good. We're all here. Let me begin by saying well done in the previous battles. We successfully defended the major holds. The dominion has no foothold in Skyrim. The dominion's forces are in a full retreat

Group: (Cheers)

Sialius: But this isn't over yet, so don't celebrate yet. There's still one more mission we need to complete

Maximus: And what might that be?

Sialius: We need to kill the leader of the dominion in Skyrim. Whoever it is, their death will ensure the collapse of the dominion's forces that are invading Skyrim. Legate Malpen has the details from our scouts

Tullius: Legate Malpen, would you care to share this information with the rest of us?

Malpen: Yes sir. The information on this leader has been scarce. However, the dominion was sloppy in their retreat

Ulfric: How so?

Malpen: We have managed to find out the identity of their leader. It is a high elf who goes by the name of Viranir. Ulfric and Tullius likely know her name. I'm sure Sialius and Leonidas do too. Speaking of which, where is he?

Miraak: He is questioning Achilles

Malpen: Noted. Anyway, Viranir was a very prominent leader of the dominion's forces in the first war. She commanded their armies against the empire's

Serana: Do you know where Viranir is?

Malpen: As a matter of fact, I do. She was smart. The dominion forces fled south into Cyrodiil and she sent a decoy back into the imperial city. She's actually hiding within the jerall mountains. Our scouts believe they have her exact location

Maximus: Well, what's the plan?

Sialius: There is no plan. The jerall mountains are impassable

Miraak: No need to pass them. Leonidas and I can fly up to the top

Sialius: Very well. You have been our greatest assets so far in this war. I have complete faith you can kill her. Despite that, you must remember, we're dealing with an extremely powerful altmer mage

Serana: Don't worry. With what I've seen, she'll be no match for two dragonborns

Ralof: Is Leonidas almost done in the cells?

Hadvar: He shouldn't be too much longer

Sialius: You should prepare yourself. Equipment, weapons, artifacts, whatever you need. But time is of the essence. You cannot risk her moving. If she does, we may never find her

Maximus: Everyone else, prepare to engage the dominion's forces one last time!

Group: HURAH!

(Meanwhile)

Achilles: Who are you?! Please, don't hurt me anymore! I can't take it!

Leonidas: Don't worry. I'm not here to hurt you

Achilles: Leonidas... They must have sent you here to finish me. I've already told them everything I know

Leonidas: No. I'm not here to kill you, Artemis. I'm here to ask you some questions

Achilles: Fine. Go ahead

Leonidas: How did you join the dominion's army?

Achilles: I wanted to make my home, the summerset isle, a better place by supporting it's military. I was young, patriotic, and misled. Now I'm stuck here, as a soldier
