Chapter 8: 433 Of the third Era (chapter 8)
As their small boat reached the docks she could see a lively port. Trade ships interring before them and small shops lining the streets up the docks. There were many houses, shops, and taverns outside the giant walls of the city. As she leaned over she could see many fishes. While one that had a long mouth with sharp teeth was swimming near their boat.
'care that's a slaughter fish" a young girlish voice said from beside her. As she turned to face the one that spoke. It then turned out to be the little boy that was with them? As she looked closely at their face, she did notice some female features. As and there smell drifted up towards her nose. She finally could tell that they were a girl.
Their black hair reaches their eyes giving them more of a boyish look while her hair was short adding to that look. If they had not spoken she would have believed they were a boy. There boat finally reaching the docks as she looked into the young girl's face. S'lani touched her shoulder to grab her attention as he and the girl got off the boat.
As he dropped their chains and cuffs into the water while moving towards the dockmaster. while She moved to follow behind them as she looked around. From where she walked she could see two gate walls. One towards the top of the hill while the other was towards the end of the port town. She finally caught up with the pair only to see the dockmaster giving S'lani a sack of coins. Though how much she didn't know. While two deckhands moved towards what was their boat or was.
While moving with the group there stomachs began to ruble causing the khajiit to laugh. "This one believes it would be best to eat some food," he said while pointing at their stomachs. He moved towards a stall that was selling grilled fish. taking this moment she looked him over, he had a bright main of brown with soft spots of gray in his fur. His tail seemed to have scars as there was claw makes on it, His height was around 6,8.
Then she looked towards the young girl that seemed to be around 8 or 9 years old her eyes a honeyed brown. her height is around 4'2. only a few inches shorter than herself. And her clothes had holes in it this bugged Elllehish as she removed her cloak and wrapped it around her it coves most of her upper body. it barely reaching her knees while, the khajiit came back and gave each of them a grilled fish on a stick. As she looked up at him and thanked him for the food. Only now noticing his greenish eyes. There were many people around seemingly in high spirits.
"Is there some event happening?" She asked them both as they looked at her weirdly. "they're celebrating the coming of the new year."
"And what year is that?" she asked back Still confused but hopefully. "This one believes it is the 433 of the third era" He spoke as he was eating his food. She had to think for a bit as she followed them past a few houses and shops up towards a tavern. As she looked around in her memory, she didn't know how far into the future she was.
From the events of her dreams or past, she wasn't sure. But one thing she was sure about was that she had time before the world eater came. She had only played the base game of Skyrim, focusing only on the main story not doing any side quest. Even then she didn't remember much besides the threat of the dragons. though she remembered that something bad would happen this year, but she didn't know what.
Hopefully, she and her group would be okay and far from whatever would happen. As they made their way inside the tavern the sound of music and merry were all she could hear. The smell of mead, piss, and blood was lingering in the air.
Towards the middle of the tavern, there was a group of people shouting and cheering. As they made their way into the tavern, some women of different races wear clothes that gave people a view of the cleavage. They were speaking with a few male customers that were somewhat drunk.
She could see many types of humans, some darker than others and a few with tipped ears. Breton if her memory was right and the others were red guard and maybe imperial. but that was beside the point at the moment. As they made their way towards the bar. Only to hear someone shout, " You bloody cat bastard" then a loud laughter " to what do I have this please of such a visit," the man behind the bar said.
The Khajiit smiled a toothy grin as he moved his hand and gripped the man's hand. They both squeezing their muscle becoming more visible as they laugh. "This one sees that this new lifestyle has made you weaker" Grinning even harder as they both kept laughing before breaking whatever they were doing. The barkeep looking over towards Ellehish and the kid.
