Ahnasha shook her head and spoke a bit dismissively to Fendros' fears. "I think you're too worried. Have I ever done anything that would make you think I would murder someone like that? And it's not like we only kill one person at a time. We trap all the souls in one bandit camp, and I'll be prepared for over a decade, once I just need to maintain. The biggest obstacle is getting everything started."

Fendros' question about the white souls almost made Ahnasha regret mentioning it. Now that he knew an alternative existed, she could guess that he was going to try to convince her to pursue it, regardless of how impractical it would be. "Powerful things. Large, strong, and dangerous creatures or Daedra. It can be hard to know, but things like mammoths, strong minotaurs, xivilai, and other beings can have a soul to match the strength of a black soul. Provided we could find, soul trap, and kill any of those things, there is also the fact that a Dwarven centurion requires a grand soul to work. Our hunters have been tasked with obtaining them in the past. If we do manage to fill a grand white soul gem, you just know that it is going to go making one of those machines instead of what I need it for."
