Even Meesei had not expected their visitor to be the prince of knowledge and fate. If anything, she had suspected that they might be representatives of Molag Bal, with whom they had a tenuous alliance. This was a surprise, but Meesei did not panic. She recognized the black book as soon as she saw it, so she was prepared for what had come next. She kept her seat, staring into the grotesque eyes of Hermeus Mora. Pierrette and Tola jumped up from their seats, and Ri'vashi had her hand on her blade. Kaleeth was startled into jumping in front of Janius to protect him, and Ahnasha had started charging conjuration energy through her body. Lorag had not even bothered drawing a weapon and looked like he was ready to fight a Daedric Prince with his bare hands. Between all of the fear and surprise in the room, Meesei tried to maintain a sense of calm. "And I am Hircine's Champion, and representative on Nirn. Though, I know that you, of all beings, would know that. Your visit was not what I expected today. In my studies of history, the Prince of Knowledge has not been known to form alliances or wage war with other Princes. I...suspect that your intentions here are somewhat different." She said. Meesei took care not to appear rude, but she also did not want to showMora any kind of subservience. She was a representative of Hircine, not some worshipper looking for a boon. Hermeus Mora made a strange, bubbling sound, like humming. One could also interpret it as a growl, though Mora was an unusual enough entity that it was improssible to read any emotions from him, if "emotion" was even a concept that could apply to a Daedric Prince. "Hmm...a bold mor-tal. You are...correct. I have no interest in the petty affairs of mortal beasts. Your...secrets are known to me, and your lives...in-consequential. But, your souls are...inconvenient to me. I am not inter-ested in warfare, but...Clavicus Vile seeks to upset the...balance. It is in my...interest, to give you a...gift. To help you contain Vile's ambitions. You need a new home, so I will give you the location of a place of...safety."
