Telik and Gina arrived Markarth a whole lot further from Windhelm than they both thought they were. The guards were watching us quiet closely which was odd if you can tell, but Gina and Telik weren't too much worried about that they wanted to get some supplies before heading out again. As they walked into the gates of Markarth, there seem to be a commotion about something.

Gina shrugged her shoulders at the scene, before she started digging in her bag for something, not even take notice of Telik walking away from her. Telik hated crowds but he notice another friend of his in the mess of it, "Hey Lena!" Lena turn her head to the direction where she heard her name and smiled. "Hey your Telik right? from the collage?" "Yea that'll be me!" Telik said with a bigger smile.

"So what brings you here to Markarth?" "I just arrived here in Markarth, been underground for about at least a day, oh do I loathe being underground, but it does have it's wild moments." Telik said with a smile but vanished very quickly when he felt something hard hit him on the back of his head. Telik looked down on the ground to find an iron helmet by his feet.

Telik turned to look at Gina who just shrugged her shoulders at him confused like, Lena took this moment to look past her friend Telik to see what he was staring at. Lena face light up when she notice it was the Breton that saved her life. "Hey your the Breton that took the time out of her journey to save my life from trolls! I thought you were dead?" Gina remained quiet as she stared at the woman in front of her. "Oh thank the divines your okay, I was going crazy not knowing if your were dead or alive!" Lena said giving Gina hug that she wanted to do two months back, when she was saved.

Gina groan as she wiggled out of the hug, and stepping away from the Nord. "What?" "I don't do hugging very well." Gina said annoyed with the Nord who had hugged her. "HA HA I totally forgot to mention that Gina isn't much of a social bug!" Telik said laughing at himself for not mentioning. Gina glared at him, but ignored him to ask a question to Lena. "What was going on when Telik and I walked in?"

"Well Some guy thought it was cool to murder some lady from the Imperial city of course I stopped the crazy guy." Lena said as she was being handled a note. "I think you drop this." Unknown Nord said as he walked. Lena look at the guys retreating back confused, She wasn't the only one that notice it so did Telik.

Gina on the other hand was totally ignoring it by looking at some meat that the vendor had, but frown when the vendor wouldn't sell a single piece, do to the fact of the incident. Gina gave the meat vendor a death glare before she started walking to the gate to leave Markarth. "Hey Wait! Hey Lena you should travel with us, but I completely understand if you wish to stay." Telik said sweating that he won't keep up with Gina once she was out of that the stables and on the road.

"Sure I'll come it's better than staying here for the moment." Lena said with a smile, Gina rolled her eyes from where she stood by the gate. Gina smiled shortly after though, "So how much do you like being underground?" Gina said as we walked the dirt path looking for a suitable cavern to explore. "I haven't been underground yet just helping folks here and there." Lena said adjusting her Armor she had on, "Hey I got a question?" Telik asked from behind them. Gina looked over her shoulder with a raised eyebrow, "Now what would that be?" "Why do you two wear armor al the time when you two know magic?"

Lena laughed at the question, "I don't even know how to cast a single spell yet." Lena said "But I do have some spells to cast, but I'm afraid I'll burn or hurt someone." "You won't hurt anyone." Gina said turning off the road and into the wild, "You two coming?" Gina asked when she saw them not following. "You know where your heading?" Telik asked confused of the surroundings. "Yep." Was all that Gina was going to say to that.

After what seem like forever they found a crypt to explore in, Gina stood there watching how Telik would just Shiver at the sight of it. "You really do...." Gina could never finish that sentence before he yelled at her. "Oh shut up will you!" Lena took that time to laugh before she followed Gina inside. Not after 20 minutes Gina heard someone scream, she turned around to find out it was Lena screaming at a dragur. Gina facepalmed at her screaming and took care of the Drogur that was shooting arrows to Lena's way. Telik had burned one to ash not that far away from Lena, Gina was shaking her head as they continue.

The crypt had all kinds of things, Gina was going through the book shelves tossing the ruin ones over her shoulder hitting Telik on the back with them. "Okay would you stop tossing the ruin books at ..............................................." One of the books had hit him square in the face, "Me!" As the book slide down his face to the floor. Lena had to sit down on the ruin bench nearby to laugh. Telik rolled his eyes at them both.

After the whole laughing accident pass they continued deeper into the Crypt to look for more things to grab and sell. Lena gutted a Drogar than cut another in half before running to catch up with the other two. "Hey you guys venture into Crypts a lot don't you?" Lena stated to them. "Yea we do well more on Gina then me really." Telik said with a small smile. "Hey we're almost done here so hurry up!" Gina said walking away to find a secret passage.

Telik and Lena followed after her for they didn't want to track back if they didn't know if there was one. Gina found the secret passage back to the front entrance well close to it, "You two coming or still looking around?" Gina said as she started to walked away. "Come on she going to leave us behind!" Telik shouted across the crypt to Lena. "Oh okay this place was low on junk to sell." Lena said as she followed Telik and Gina out of the Crypt and into the fresh air.

Telik smiled as he took a deep breath of fresh air and letting it all go, "Man fresh air feels good!" He said with a delighted smile. Gina shook her head before speaking, "Well I'm heading off on my own for the time being thank you for traveling with me and being my companions on this one." "No problem Gina we're always here for you." Lena said with a kind smile. Gina scoff at that for she knew that you can't always be there for someone at all times. Telik knew how Gina felt about that and went to his merry way, Lena followed after giving Gina a final hug good-bye.
