Valerie sighed as the girl spoke, her lips parting to allow through the short breath of air that ended with the Lupa touching her own face for a moment as she stared blindly out over the railing of the balcony, her eyes a soft grey that seemed to have pale greatly over the course of the last year. Before her selection as Lupa she had had bright silver eyes, though when she was young they had been a deep storm grey that left everyone who saw them feeling as if they had stared into the heart of the winter storms. The girl blinked as a flake of snow touched her cheek and she smiled quietly to herself while she thought of the first time Markus has kissed her, in the snow in a clearing not far from where they were. It had been cold outside and even the smaller woman had felt it though a certain warmth had spread through her when he had and she wanted to remember that feeling since she couldn't see his face then. While her thoughts were focused on him she reached out to find him, barely able to touch his mind while she strained to hear his voice; what little she caught was irritated and hot with a fresh anger she had often seen before. 

She snapped her eyes open and turned from the balcony, striding passed the woman that was meant to watch her. [color=ec008c]"I will not leave him alone in danger."[/color] She spoke, determined not to stay back and simply be protected as if she was merely a damsel in need of protection all of the time. She had hated at first how he would never allow her to be alone because of her blindness but over time she had become increasingly familiar with the area and instead of simply allowing them to continuing guiding her she had expressed her distaste and proved she could hold her own - even though it had ended in a loss on the grounds when she fought and experienced fighter. Her skills lay elsewhere. [color=ec008c]"If you insist on staying with me then you will come to me with him."[/color]

Inside she found her way to the closet that she kept her clothes and pulled out a pair of jeans as well as a rather plain purple shirt and pulled them on over a bra and fresh pair of panties. Her feet remained bare in the case that she would need to fight and with her slowly growing skills to protect herself she could used her feet as a good weapon while her hands found her balance. Valerie would not stop to wait for the girl to stop her, even if it was in her best interests and she knew very well that she was the weakness of the Ulfrics, though she would be a strength. [color=ec008c]"I will go Sasha. I will be at my Markus' side."[/color]

And with that the woman left the compound to follow the trail left by the Ulfric and the scent of his on the wind to guide her.
