Kaleeth practically looked like she was exhausted from all of the conflicting thoughts going through her mind. "He was...mean. Growing up, he was a bully to me, one of the worst. I wasn't as good as most of the other apprentices, and he made sure I knew it. Any way, and any time he could. He was so cruel, and...hurt me in so many ways. And then Deerz...he was my friend. I thought he wanted to be my mate for a while, before he found someone else. None of this makes any sense to me."

Even if the Imperial had heard Rhazii, he did not even attempt to reply, and certainly did not listen. Although, the panicking, frightened Imperial also did not simply attack immediately. He was alone, and surrounded by obviously powerful opponents, so he showed himself to be smart enough to want to flee and tried to take off in the opposite direction from Rhazii. Unfortunately for him, Ahnasha had no intention of allowing him to escape. A quick mental order to her thrall, and her storm atronach struck the man with a painful, but non-lethal lightning bolt. He hit the ground face-first, and while he was trying to scramble back to his feet, Ahnasha's atronach moved past him to block his escape. "There will be no fleeing. Sorry, but your crimes have caught up with you." Ahnasha announced. "You can do this, Rhazii. Give this murderer what he deserves."

The Imperial managed to get back to his feet, but was still in a panic looking for a way out and pointing his sword at the whoever was the closest.
