Miarenus seemed a little taken back about what Nocturnal had just told her.
"Are you sure that is true?" Miarenus asked.
Nocturnal merely smiled and talked.
"Yes, my dear. I know you can feel it." Nocturnal said.
Miarenus frowned but then smiled.
"Well then I'll have to treat her well when the time comes." Miarenus said.
Nocturnal nodded and disappeared in a black cloud that faded away. Miarenus heard Shadow hide you in the wind and noticed Optio leaning in the doorway of her house and walked over with the bucket in hand.
"Needed water for the stew." Miarenus said walking by him.
It's easy to see someone for how they want you to see them. The hard part is finding out who the person they don't want you to see is.
"Watch out for the quiet ones. Especially when they know they are one." >=)
Optio laughed. "Yeah, and you needed to speak to a master thief too." Optio walked outside now. He looked around the place. It was the thoughts killing him. He decided to finally take his helmet off. He became aware if his surroundings. He made sure that he knew what he was going to do with his carriage. He started to think up a plan.
Miarenus put the water in the pot and stirred the contents for a bit. Afterwards she turned around and walked outside next to Optio.
"She isn't a thief Optio. She is the Daedra Lord of Shadow. She watches over all of us." Miarenus told Optio making sure she left out the part about being a Nightingale.

"Don't lie Miarenus. I may be an orc that loves to fight, but it doesn't prove me stupid." Optio was looking at Miarenus for a moment. Then he looked back out into his surroundings. "I fight because I am supposed to. It's war that I am worried about. If war comes what the hell could I choose? I just want blood on my mace and stains on the enemy." Optio explained.
Miarenus seemed a little confused about what he said then a little annoyed.
"I'm not lieng that was indeed the Daedric Lord of Shadows Nocturnal herself. As for war I've seen the Nords and Altmers butt heads but it usually just simmers down. If they do indeed start a war I know what side I'm picking." Miarenus told him.

"Of course." Optio said. He started walking away. He didn't know where he was going. He just wanted to go. For some reason, he had an urge to kill, and killing Miarenus wouldn't go well. So he set out for some bandits or something to kill.
Miarenus watched as Optio walked off. Suddenly Malacath another Daedra lord appeared next to Optio. He took the form of a very tall and muscular orc with his signature hammer on his back.
"I see an orc who doesn't know what to do. Fight for me orc and I will make you strong." Malacath told Optio.
(Malacath is a Daedra lord that orc's follow because he represents the start of the orsimer and their ways. Lore wise.)

Optio looked over to see his lord. He knew what to do. He got on one knee, "Lord Malacath. I never thought I would see you in person. How may I serve my Daedra Lord?" Optio had his head down so he was staring at the ground. The golden ebony armor shined from the sun. He waited for his response as his heart raced. He tried to stay calm. His Daedra Lord stood before him. What would happen to Optio? The merchant and blacksmith that loved to fight. It was in his blood. Optio kept on one knee with his head down.
Malacath laughed but not mockingly.
"Stand Optio. It's below an orc warrior to kneel." Malacath said.
He had a grin on his face.

Optio stood up.
"Sorry my Lord. I wish to show respect."
He looked up but not by much. "What made you come and find me?" Optio asked.
