"Of course," Janius nodded. This was a revelation for all of them, but Meesei was right. As long as they had the situation under control, it would be no help to put Runt under more pressure.

"I wonder why Runt would act in such away about a family member, does she think we would harm this relative?" Fendros asked.

Janius shrugged, "I don't think so. I think she has been with the pack for long enough to know that if anything we try to avoid running into old family. She definitely seemed to want to avoid this Ariel with a degree of distress, likely fear." Janius shook his head, "I don't know."

The atmosphere became a little more nervous as they sat and waited for time to pass. Eventually, they began to relax again as their conversation resumed.

Before too long, it was time to start moving again. Under direction of Ahnasha, the group made their way towards the last known location of the rival pack and followed their scents. Lorag and Fendros worked together on their trail, but Lorag proved his expertise even within the city. Fendros had to occasionally ask pointers from Lorag, expanding his own knowledge, but there was at least one occasion where Fendros was able to pick up a dwindling or lost trail before Lorag did. Although it may have just been Lorag making sure that Fendros was keeping up with the trail as well as he was rather than just bumbling behind him.

They followed the trail through a variety of areas that suggested a number of lines of questioning. Most of the movement was through the market, that was starting to quiet for the day, but there was a sojourn into the residential district for some reason. Perhaps they talked with someone in their own home? After following the trail for a while, the pair managed to spot the same Redguard that had been in the general store earlier that day, accompanied by a short woman, a Bosmer by the looks. They was a distance down the road from them, walking somewhere. Lorag and Fendros weren't sure whether they had bribed people for information yet, or whether they were heading to meet up with their pack, so they kept their distance and continued to follow.
