I may need to find a way to post without Leon, depending.
You can skip if you wish. I need to go to bed. Goodnight.
In any case, I think you'll like the next thing I have in mind, after the thing with Ahnasha. It shall be interesting.
"Yes! I mean...okay, we can climb down. Not that I do not like sitting in your lap. Your fur is very soft." Kaleeth exclaimed before quickly trying to curb her enthusiasm. She held on tightly to him in preparation for them to move.

"Maybe you can show me what else you can do as a werewolf? LIke...how strong you really are. It must be a lot to hold back wamasu. Or we can find a nice, wet place and lay down together." She suggested, narrowly avoiding the accidental double entendre this time. "You're so big that I feel like I am being wrapped up in a blanket in your arms." She kept her eyes off of the ground and tried to focus on what she was going to say when she asked about her decision. Just as she told Janius, she really could not prepare to commune with something like the Hist, or Hircine if that was possible, but talking to the others would be easier...except her father. She already knew that he would be angry at her for just having these thoughts, let alone acting on them. He wanted to protect her, so she had no idea what he would do at the prospect of her actually leaving. In truth, she really did not like the idea of leaving either. In a perfect world, they would all be able to stay together, but that was obviously not going to happen.
At the very least, Kaleeth now had a plan of what to do. She still had no idea what to decide, but at least she had some hope that someone, or something, could help her. Her mind started to shift away from her internal conflict and to the present moment, which of course meant she started paying more attention to how high up they were. The canopy did look like a sort of floor, but she was still afraid of falling through it. Without anything to distract her, she started to shake a bit more and felt her breathing speed up. She wanted to get down, but still did not want to let Janius know of her fear. As a result, she needed to subtly find a way to move them along.

Kaleeth reached up and gave Janius another kiss on the snout and scratched behind his ears once more. "So, what should we do now, with the time we have?"
I wouldn't really have time to write a lot tonight. I think I'll write a bit more from Kaleeth's perspective.

And I am honestly not sure what to do with Kaleeth. I never expected her to be a significant character, so I have no idea.
Hmm, what should we do now?
When Meesei wrapped her arms around Sabine, just like after the last fight, she washed over her body with restoration energy to purge the poison from her body. This time, however, there were nowhere near as many injuries to heal, only a few scratches and bruises. Neither of the combatants looked like they had been hurt too badly, at least not with any lasting injuries.

"I told you that you could win." Meesei said with her arms still wrapped around her. Once she was sure all the injuries were taken care of, she cast a longer-lasting, low-power restoration spell onto her that would take care of any residual soreness. When she finally released the hug, she put her hands on Sabine's shoulders and looked at her with a smile. "Your trials are over. Now, all that remains is the ritual itself. I will be there to help guide you when it is time."

"Indeed, I can think of no better guide." Thorantilth commented as he approached the pair. "The trials have shown that you have the strength of body and will to undergo the ritual, but still, it would be best if you were well rested and in good health. We will perform the ritual tomorrow, around midday."
Kaleeth let out a sigh. Of course it was not going to be easy, why would it be? Everything else about the whole situation had been stressful and complicated. Still, she had choices about who to seek out for help. "I...do not think I can really say. I mean, I not really know a lot about Daedra, but I do know the Hist. I assume Hircine is a powerful being too, yes? If he is like the Hist, then his mind is above ours. Mortals can't know the minds of gods, it is...not smart to try to predict them, or anything like that. I would just say what comes to my heart, it's all I could do. I don't think planning like that would really help me talk to a god."
Sam grinned. "As do I. Thinking back on it, it was hardly a romantic spot, wasn't it? Still, I don't regret it for a second. The real beauty of love isn't where it formed, but who it formed with. We could have been in the most polluted city or filthiest swamp and it would have been just as beautiful."

Looking at the clock, Sam could see that they were making good time. It was probably only going to be about 1:00 PM when they arrived, so they would have plenty of time to get their camp set up and get accustomed to the area. "We will be heading deeper into the forest this time, somewhere people very rarely go. Hopefully, it will help us not to be disturbed. I've been studying a map of the area, and there are a few landmarks I hope to familiarize myself with in case we get lost and need to get back. It's not perfect, but we will be much better prepared than last time."

Soon enough, Sam turned off onto a small side road, then onto a dirt road that headed up into the mountains. After a short while, he found the spot to turn off-road onto a small, overgrown path that used to be used for walking and ATVs. His car would barely fit through, but he nevertheless was able to make it to a decent sized clearing: the spot he intended for them to make their camp. Shutting off the car, he stepped out and took in a deep breath of the air around him. "Well, here we are, our new home for the next week. We should probably go ahead and get everything set up."
Okun was in a bad situation, and he knew it. His attack had failed, so Sabine had managed to flip him over and throw herself onto his back. She had his arm twisted in a way that was causing him constant pain, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't throw her off of him. He tried to reach back with his free arm to get her off of him, but with how little leverage he had, he could accomplish little more than tugging on loose clothing.

After a few moments of struggling, Okun finally relented. "Ow, ow, stop, stop, stop!" He shouted, which was enough for Thorantilth to call the fight to a close.

"Enough, the fight is over. Victory goes to Sabine. The Trial of body is concluded." Thorantilth said, with the healer approaching immediately to make sure Okun was unharmed.
Kaleeth had hoped Janius' answer would provide her a more solid idea of what to do, but she supposed it would make more sense to ask Meesei herself. After all, she knew her own motivations more than anyone. At first thought, it wouldn't make sense for the Hist to put an Argonian on a course that would separate her from them, but that was a mortal thought from a mortal mind. The Hist thought on a much higher level than herself.

"You are right, it would be better to ask her, to ask everyone. I can't decide on my own, so I should get help from everyone. Maybe...maybe I should try to commune with the Hist? Saxhleel always hear the Hist in our minds, but if I drink some of the sap, they might give me visions to help me. The Treeminder always taught me to trust their guidance, so it makes sense to listen to them now. And...you say becoming a werewolf would bind my soul to Hircine? I do not know about him very well. I know he is Daedra. Maybe...what would I have to do to commune with Hircine?" Kaleeth asked.
