With hasty preparation, I raised the alertness in Winterhold to the max I probably seemed like some tyrant when I overstepped my authority but I tried not to lose much of my sense Luckily, Nurina was there for nore the possibility of it being because of me
Was I too careless?
For the first ti Without Jull and Nefertiti around, it was not my home anymore Even when I sat inover to drink after work And God kno much I missed Alina
If this was because of et to ly that I will bring hell doith me
I couldn't sit still anyot affected by it I now have beco is official, their fates are tied to ht, I gathered all the ence agents at my company We roamed the streets in silence and paid a visit to every spy that got sent by the all the powers around and started interrogating theht full of muffled screams and spilled blood under the basement of the bathhouse
No one knehat happened to my family as the news about the powers Still, they had to die
I even killed the Storht I would dig ait withI had to do was to leave thethe last feeeks They will keep the shi+p floating just fine
Lastly, I asked Nurina to watch over Winterhold for e Savos Aren and asked him to assist Winterhold if it happened to be under any attack Luckily, I was accepted
The last thing I needed to do was to travel alone to the Moonblade territory It was the last place they were seen at and I elcoeared up and rode a Flao - The Moonblade Clan]

”Kaja, father said to go and welco”
During Alina's approach to the fort, two girls eed from the front door, one with an obviously fake smile and the other with a disdainful face

”Indeed it is” Elsa acted as friendly as possible to Alina The reason was known as Elsa was to be wed to Gunmar son of Njord Firemane A word from Alina can destroy Elsa's happy life
”Why are you back?” Kaja the younger sister, on the other hand, was openly hostile
