Ahnasha hesitated as she looked around at the people around them, many of whom were not part of their pack. "We should go for a swim I think, dear. Is sounds fun; relaxing." She said at a more average conversational volume. Seeing as no one was finished with their meals, Ahnasha suspected that no one would be joining them for at least a short time. 

Ahnasha left Fendros little room for argument when she grabbed his hand and stood up to guide him away, towards the nearest river. She kept her eyes straight forward, facing away from the group behind them. "I don't need any more research. Marcaille said I know everything I need to know; I can extend my life. I know the process inside and out, and I have practiced it on some short-lived creatures. The concept is no different for a person. All I need now is the resources to accomplish it. Unfortunately, it requires a...hefty investment at first. A few dozen black souls. That's what I need. With that kind of soul energy, I can initiate the process. There may be more efficient methods out there, but I don't know them. I'll also need a fresh black soul occasionally to maintain the...I guess you'd call it an enchantment. Fortunately, I'll only need one every few years once it is started. I know that doesn't sound like too many souls, but I'll need a few dozen black soul gems to begin with, which is a pain in and of itself. Then I'll need people to fill them, but I can't just take someone's soul in front of any random warrior from the clan. I need to be able to do it discretely. It could take a long time, and..."

Breathing out a sigh, Ahnasha stopped once they reached the river and took Fendros' hands in hers. "I'm almost in my thirties, Fendros. I know it might be hard for you to really get a sense of my timeframes, but...Dunmer live for over a thousand years on the high end, right? That means I would be, what? Almost in my three hundreds? Strictly speaking, you are older than me, yes. But, in terms of my body, you can basically consider yourself married to a three hundred year old woman. Every year that I don't perform the ritual is like losing ten years with you."
