Call of the Hunt [EliteCommander and Muttonhawk]

"Hrrmph, they can try," Oswall grunted. "If the Thalmor have been trying and failing to eradicate Talos worship for this long, how should Vile be able to succeed where they failed?"

"Eradication," Darahil answered bluntly. "The Thalmor have always approached it by outlawing the worship of Talos. They know they cannot overextend to massacre Imperial citizens. Vile had no scruples with massacring lycans, he will have no restrictions to outright destroying the Talos faith." Darahil's eyes spun to the others. "And Talos worshippers are not organised like us. They cannot form a resistance like we can. Even the Stormcloak rebellion was quashed before a decade passed."

Oswall growled in thought. "I see. Well, I suppose the obvious measure we should take is to protect them where we can, and continue pushing back against Clavicus Vile's cult. Perhaps take a few into our captivity to ensure that we truly put ourselves between Vile and Mundus."

"Whatever the next step may be, I have a concern, Meesei," Vera said, raising a hand to hold Oswall and Darahil's conversation. "This mission was alongside the Imperial and Dominion representatives, they must know what Areldril said. This revelation surely puts our ties with the Dominion under strain if we know what their long term goal is. And...well, we are not going to let Mundus be consumed, whether by Vile or the Thalmor. What can we count on from them? Will we still receive supplies and protection? Are the Empire going to prefer that we stay out of this matter if their citizenry, not to mention the world, are under threat? This is a complex diplomatic situation. One wrong move could undermine any efforts we decide to make."

One by one, each pair of eyes in the council lit up with recognition of at least one of the towers Meesei mentioned. The blunt fall of Meesei's connection between them left them more confused than outwardly concerned. All but Darahil, of course, though his stoicism was equally likely to be from knowledge of what Meesei was referring to as it was to simply hiding his thoughts.

Darahil was the only person to respond with anything more than an ajar, speechless mouth. "I think it best that we know the connection of this ultimate goal to our war, champion," he said. "If what you say is true, and the situation as dire, there is no room for assumptions. Tell us everything, if you please."

I'm glad to see that Toun's advice to Whisper on Vestec was as astoundingly accurate as I thought it would be.

The council assembled with varying levels of dubiousness. They were all used to Meesei's pack departing and arriving in short order these days, but the urgency of the meeting seemed unusual. They were aware that Meesei's latest mission was to collaborate with the Empire and Dominion to catch a fugitive. The mood in the meeting set everyone to remain quiet.

"Well, now that we are all here, I bid you welcome home, champion," Vera said. "I will admit openly that I'm not sure what to make of a meeting on such short notice for your mission. I would suspect something to have gone wrong, yet...you didn't give that off when you asked me to come to the meeting room." She gestured a hand. "Would you please fill us in?"

"Have those Dominion curs finally found an excuse to toss us away?" Oswall asked, brash as ever.

Looks like competent exposition to me, mate.

Yep, we can skip from here.

Lunise pulled an amused look. Meesei's persistence had turned her sore mood around. "You put on an act outside of this room," Lunise said, running her hands up Meesei's sides. "But there is no denying how young you really are. Nudity, on its own, bores after enough years." Lunise propped herself up and laid kisses down Meesei's front. "Or perhaps you have simply been starved for this kind of attention for too long," Lunise said to Meesei's navel. "Let us see what it takes to sate you, lycan queen." Her wandering hands continued.

In contrast to Meesei's wistful account, Lunise harumphed and eyed her with a frown. "You say that as if it is impossible," she murmured to her. Lunise brought an arm around Meesei. "I think you should read more about Orcs, champion. They were barely considered human a few scant centuries ago. I do not consider myself fond of them, but if they can forge their place in society, so can lycans."

Lunise rolled to her side, revealing her front, scar and all, once more. Her arms drew Meesei up against her and one hand hooked Meesei's leg up around her hip. "So can you." She kissed Meesei.

Oh, you meant that literally! Haha, well done.

Yeah, I won't get my piece of paper for another few months. I'm honestly not sure how I'm going to store it just yet. I'll just try not to keep it in its plastic sheet and use it as a side table beer coaster like my housemate does with his architecture degree. Then again, the walls are brick, so hanging it up requires a drill and some effort.
