"Meesei helped me to improve, but I taught myself from a young age. Back when I was still learning to hunt, I became frustrate with how easily my prey spotted me. Of course now I don't need magic to hunt, but at the time I thought it would be a good way to stay hidden. I read whatever books on the subject I could get my hands on. The fact that my parents owned a shop helped, as books would pass through their stock from time to time. I could only read them at night, when the store was closed, but it was enough for me. I'm only really skilled in illusion, though. Being able to summon a few bound weapons hardly makes me a conjurer." Ahnasha responded. She sat herself down against the crumbling clay wall of one of the buildings, being careful not to dirty her dress. Like most of the pack, she hardly enjoyed having to blend in within the city. Her upbringing meant she at least knew how, at least.

"Why must 'civilized' women wear these annoying dresses. I cannot think of anything more impractical." She complained. "You would not believe how difficult it was climb on the rooftops in this thing. I wish I could just toss it in a fire or something."

A smile crept up on Ahnasha's face as Fendros explained his concerns. "What's that you say? You actually would rather be out in the wilds than in the city? Fendros, I think you're starting to fit in with us after all. And you don't have to worry about me; the only reason anyone ever sees me is if I want them to. Illusion has many useful properties. With a bit of concentration, I can keep my scent masked as well. You and Lorag will have to be a bit more creative for that, but again, Lorag knows what he is doing."

Meesei picked a secluded spot out of sight of the main road to begin her enchantment. She laid out the bone necklace in front of her, then grasped the soul gem in her hands. Most enchanters in modern times relied on specialized enchanting tables to easily focus the soul energy in the proper patterns onto the item. It had the advantage of guaranteed success, but it was not the only method which existed. There were still some, such as Meesei, who remembered the old methods of enchanting, which could be performed merely with a gem, and item, and a fair amount of concentration. She closed her eyes and charged a bit of magicka into the gem, guiding the dark violet tendrils of soul energy into the bone necklace in the precise pattern she needed to produce the proper effect.
"Heh, you not picking your little catdog are you? Smart, I guess. Yeah, I can babysit you. I'll make sure to keep us from getting spotted by the rival pack, just make sure you have that silver tongue ready if we have to talk to anyone. People around here are more 'receptive' to Dunmer than anything else." Lorag answered. Since he was posing as a bodyguard, he was already armed and armored. When it came time for everyone to return to camp and arm up, he would likely be the one to keep tabs on the rival pack.

As everyone was settling in, Ahnasha approached Fendros and leaned up against the wall near him. "So you're leaving me all alone, then? And here I thought we were getting close." She said sarcastically, with a light chuckle. "It is for the best. Alone, I'll be able to make use of my invisibility. Just listen to Lorag and you'll be fine. You might not think a giant Orc in iron armor could be sneaky, and you would be right, but Lorag can be clever when he needs to be."
We're skipping the events of those two days, so the timespan will be irrelevant. Likely, it will be my next post that initiates the skip.
It seems like with all the forces arrayed against Xyden, the goddesses could sit this one out.
Meesei nodded. "Very well, I will let you decide who to accompany. We can rest here until it is time to move, or you can walk around to familiarize yourself with the town. Just make sure to be back here before dusk. We will need to make sure we can all follow them together once they find the information they are looking for, but I have an idea of how to accomplish that task."

Meesei sat down on the ground and laid her satchel down next to her. Reaching inside, she pulled out the items she would need: a few of the soul gems they had collected on their journey, and two of her bone necklaces. Ultimately, someone would likely need to track the rival pack once they left the city while the rest of them regrouped back at camp, collected their weapons, along with Sabine. While it would be possible for them to track the scent of their fellow pack member to locate the rival clan once more, Meesei did not want to leave anything to chance. She knew of an enchantment which would help guarantee that they would be able to find each other again.
So we have Xyden in search of Leith on a murderous quest, Leith who has happened to run into Annabeth and Ssarak, and Ssarak who is on a personal quest for redemption and is just looking for ways to be a hero.

There are so many ways that this could turn interesting.
It is rather late right now, I'll respond in the morning. On the upside, I actually remembered to check this from time to time today.
