Ahnasha knew that she should have expected that question, or something similar, in the event that she managed to convince Calia to be at least somewhat accepting of her. Of course, she felt it best to [i]not[/i] mention her efforts into life extension. It was technically possible that there were other methods to extend one's life aside from necromancy or vampirism which she did not know about, but in essence, to admit to trying to extend her life was to admit to practicing the dark arts. She would just have to fall back on another explanation. "I believe we have very different on our lives, Elves and Khajiit. Eighty, a hundred years, those are small parts of your lives, but I would be happy to live that long. Fendros will be able to know that his wife and child have lived long, happy lives. And after that? Well, that is when existence really begins. My body may not last as long as his, but our souls are equally eternal. Just as my life is short to you, even an Elven lifespan is, how to say it...it's like a blink of an eye compared to literal eternity. If, after I am gone, Fendros decides to live his life until we are reunited, then my soul will be waiting for him. If he decides to find someone else in all that time, then I will be content with the time we had. I could not expect him to remain alone for all that time." Ahnasha answered. --- Meesei turned her head to Janius and nodded. "Yes, see if you can talk to him. I do not expect him to be very open, but...just do whatever you can. I will join you shortly." With her attention back on Harriet, Meesei was had just as harsh of an expression as before. "Be aware that we will be keeping an eye on you. I cannot forgive you for what you have done, and I do not expect many others will either. For your sake, I will not tell those you are meeting who you actually are. Our clan has moved on from Bruma, so you will likely be meeting with people who do not recognize you. You may live your life as you see fit, and as long as you continue to help us, you will be afforded any protection we can give against Vile, if you are discovered. Just do not expect to be welcome in any clan again, barring direct intervention from Hircine himself."
