Miarenus moved closer to the front entrance of the fort. The woman bandits could be overheard talking about how the guys where being pigs and just trying to get some. The sun was low in the sky so darkness started to cover Skyrim. Miarenus used this to her advantage. She casted muffle and thanks to her lifespan she had also learned how to do silent casting an art Elanin would have to wait to learn. It had saved Miarenus a few times. She moved silently through the entrance way right under the nose of a khajiit. Miarenus had to chuckle. Either that khajiit was blind or wasn't paying attention.
Miarenus stopped moving as another bandit a breton walked by her. Miarenus pickpocketed a poision vial from the breton. "Oh a paralyze poision nice." Miarenus thought and put it in her bag. She then knocked an arrow and aimed at the Khajiit over-watching the entrance. Squinting she let it fly. The arrow soared through the air and hit the khajiit in the back of the head sending him flying off the stone wall. Miarenus smiled.
"Bulls eye!" She thought.
"Filde anything up front?" A bandit called out. No answer. She pulled out a Greatsword.
"Everybody somethings wrong Filde isn't answering." She said. The other bandits all pulled out their weapons as well. The breton one readied a lightning and fire spell. They started to search around the fort. Miarenus smiled she planned this. One by one they spread out. She let another arrow fly and it killed another bandit. One by One Miarenus took the bandits out until the supposed leader with the greatsword was left. Miarenus knocked an arrow but questioned it after. The bandit was wearing heavy armor. No arrows could get through that. She mumbled to herself in Elven and let the bow disappear. "Time for a new approach." She thought. She readied a frostbite and fireball spell. She jumped next to the forge to reveal herself. "Aha there you are!" The bandit said charging in with the greatsword. Miarenus waited until she was close and back peddled spraying her with frostbite. It slowed her down and with the heavy armor made her barely able to move at all. After a bit sensing she was near the end Miarenus readied a fireball. "Finish it!" The bandit said. Miarenus granted her wish and sent her to Oblivion with fireball. Afterwards, she conjured a familiar and sent it to let Elanin know it was safe to come inside.
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.

Elanin was leaning on some nearby rocks when she spotted Miarenus' familiar. She smiled to herself knowing that Miarenus was probably able to handle the situation with no problem at all. Elanin made her way into the fort and soon found Miarenus standing there, waiting for her. "Well, I couldv'e done that," she said in a jokingly way to break the silence that now overtook the fort. She throws down her pack on the stone floor.

"Sure you could of Elanin." Miarenus said rolling her eyes and shaking her head. "What did I tell you about humility?" Miarenus also said. She went over to the door and peaked inside. It was cold and there was no light so the bandits outside where the only ones here.
"I guess this is home until morning then off to Solitude!" Miarenus exclaimed. She opened the door all the way and looked back to Elanin who was still re cooperating from her ordeal. Maybe, Miarenus should of stepped in. After all the girl overpowered her attacks making her feel drained. Miarenus walked over and helped her up along with picking her bag up. "Come on I'll tell you about my symbol and what it means before we go to bed." Miarenus told her.

The dim light from the torch on the wall of the fort's dungeon barely stretched to the cage Volian was inside of, his arms chained above him. Just a day before one of the damned Khajiit knocked him out and drug him to this basement, attempting to keep him alive for ransom to whoever he was loyal to; Fortunately the bandits impatient attitude was able to be stalled by whatever calming spells he could let loose in his position. Moments ago he had heard sounds of fighting outside, something that could be very good to him...
"HEY!" He yelled in the direction of the stairs, "HELP ME!"
(Will continue with Miarenus and Elanin when Lexxi gets back on. I'll post one for Erissare)
Erissare was in Solitude scouting out any security details she could find. Word had it that her sister Elanin would stop by this place and this is where she could kidnap her if that's the right term and bring her back to Summerset Isle. A Nord thinking he was hot stuff came over to her as she sat in the corner drinking mead. He stunk of booze and tobacco.
"Hey their....uh....Altmer..ya that's what they call you. You're pretty.. how about we go upstairs." The drunk nord asked.
Erissare scoffed and flicked her hand at him. It was a simple illusion spell but it did the job. The man had no idea what had just happened and wobbled off singing or talking gibberish. Eris returned to watching the room for anything or anybody interesting she could use.

Elanin was in fact feeling exhausted and even with the potion, felt rather weak so staying the night in the cold and damp fort didn't seem so bad. But once she heard Miarenus' offer to tell her the story about the strange symbol, she eagerly got up to follow her. Elanin has always been curious about the symbol and what it meant but never gathered enough courage to ask about it.

Miarenus entered the fort with Elanin and heard somebody yell out for help.
"Well seems the bandits took some one prisoner. Let's go find him. Most likely in the dungeon." Miarenus said casting magelight to see. She also used a flame spell to light any torches along the way on the wall.

Elanin stumbled a bit from tiredness and replied, "Well I didn't hear a thing. Besides, Why would we want to help someone bandits have taken prisoner? I don't know about you but I've never heard of a bandit sparing anyone soo I'm guessing its a traitor... ANOTHER problem we'll have to face." Despite her tiredness, Elanin did hear a faint cry for help but was mostly saying this to try to avoid venturing on further and to just rest. But she had a feeling Miarenus wasn't going to let this go.

Miarenus didn't reply but kept moving forward. A few skeevers decided to attack them but She ended them quickly with the flames. Eventually they came to a dimly lit room. Miarenus could hear somebody groaning.
"Hello? Who's there?" Miarenus asked.
She could tell it was a breton. Every race gave off different levels of magicka.

Elanin sighed rather unecessarily loud at Miarenus' attempt to find the prisoner. She was not interested in being there when this prisoner turns out to be a traitor overwhelmed with anger and attacks them while vulnerable.
