"I do not intend to take all of the necessary gold from our clan alone." Meesei clarified. "We do have our connections across Tamriel, after all. Rather than to take a large sum from one clan, I will request smaller sums from many clans. As the Champion, I do have that authority. It is not an authority I have exercised before, but that should speak to its importance in this situation. We have purchased entire plots of land as investments for our own farming and businesses; I believe we can finish the payments for a single building to invest in an antidote to the most effective weapon against our kind."

Meesei understood the hesitation to spend gold if it was not strictly required, but Meesei felt that Ariel would be a lot more willing and able to help if she did not have to make any major sacrifices to do so. "We can decide the specifics of how much gold to dedicate to this once we get together an updated, accurate account of the clans' finances. For now, I just wanted to give my intentions. My pack will need to make this journey personally, though I do not expect to be away for nearly as long as our last mission." Meesei explained.

Saras gave a single chuckle. "Leadership? No, my first family, my first [i]real[/i] family, was nothing like my current clan. My current skills are the result of a lifetime of challenges. I was born the unwanted son of a prostitute, and I do not know nor care who the father was. I have no ancestors, and my blood relatives are irrelevant. My family was...adoptive. I served them for over a hundred years before the Nerevarine killed them all, and cut me open." He explained, surprisingly nonchalantly.
