"That's my business, cub." Lorag replied unusually harshly, even for him. Although, his irritation seemed to fade away just as quickly as he stepped into the room and headed over to the farthest chair in the corner. 

Ahnasha sighed and glanced over to Rhazii, speaking considerably more softly. "Just leave him be. You know Lorag is someone who likes to keep his business to himself, for the most part."

"I'm not gonna be in your hair for too long." Lorag spoke up. "Alpha had someone keep an eye on her after we found her. They said she's moved out of the city, up to some cabin in the hills. A short walk from the city, but still outside the walls. Probably 'cause the girl was getting old enough that her lycanthropy was gonna be a problem."

Kaleeth nodded slowly. "Yeah, I guess. I mean...there's nothing wrong with me or anything, I just..." Her voice trailed off as she looked over to the side across the river's surface. She seemed to be focusing on [i]something[/i], but all Janius would be able to see was water. Her silence went on for almost long enough to be worrying before she finally spoke up again. "I could never remember what happened when I went out into the swamp that day. I remember leaving the village, wandering around for a while...looking for something to hunt, since that felt like what I should have been doing. Then I came out into the water and...then nothing. I don't remember anything after that. Did I commune with Hircine? Did he appear to me like Ahnasha and say anything? Did he send a werecrocodile after me? Or did I just find one? Did he have some purpose for me, or was I just stubborn? I hoped I would start to remember one day, but I never did." 

Finally, Kaleeth turned her head to make eye contact with Janius again. "Did you recognize this place? I can't remember if I was near here when you found me, but this is where I came. The last place I remember before I was infected. I thought maybe seeing it would remind me of something, but...nothing."
