Meesei acknowledged Fendros and Ahnasha with a nod as they approached, though she had to keep one eye on Neesa and Lunise at all times. Logically, she doubted that either of them would be willing to resort to violence, considering that Molag Bal himself had instructed Neesa to serve cooperatively with them, but that did not stop Meesei from being worried. To give Meesei a chance to focus, Lorag stepped in close to Fendros and spoke at a whisper. "The short of it is that we got the axe empowered, with too many strings attached. Alpha managed to beat the vampire in a duel to get the Daedra's help, but then he made her tag along with us. You, uh, can see how well that's going." Meanwhile, Hal-Neesa stopped her smiling for the first time since they started speaking, perhaps disappointed in the fact that Lunise had stopped giving in to her goading. The vampire finally took her hand off of Lunise so she could cross her arms. "Hmph, what, do you not appreciate my story? Are you suddenly now so reserved about the knowledge you gain? Well, it was a trick question regardless; I learned nothing of value from those slaving despots. Sure, I thoughts I did at the time, and for hundreds of years after, but all I really should have taken out of it was how little I mattered. If you want to be worth anything, you have to earn it. No, I was hatched a pathetic weakling who couldn't free herself on her own. I could only thank Alessia that I managed to live long enough to make something worthwhile out of myself." Meesei raised her brow at the curious choice of phrasing that Neesa used; it was not how she expected a worshipper of Molag Bal to speak, certainly.
