A/N: Character is a Nord woman with red hair and green eyes.

I swung my steel sword, slashing Grelod across the chest. She yelped, and fell to the ground, blood pooling around her body. She backed up.

"Constance! Help me!"

I finished her with a quick backhand slash to the throat. I wiped my blade clean on a non-bloodied section of her tunic, and ran out.

"No more! I yield! I yield!"

I ran out the door of the Honorhall Orphanage to Riften. The next day, as I walked through the wilderness near Riften, a courier ran up to me.

"I've got something for you. Yeah. Got this note."

He handed me a note. I opened it. It had an emblem of a black handprint with the words We Know written underneath it.

"From who?"

"Don't know. Creepy fella, black robe. Couldn't see his face. Paid me a pretty sum to get that into your hands, though. Looks like that's it."

He ran off, leaving he standing there holding the eerie note. I glanced up, and noticed that it was getting dark. I ran back to Riften, entering the city. I walked to the Bee and Barb and ran up to the inn-keep.

"I'd like a room," I said.
The Argonian woman nodded.

"That'll be 10 gold."

I pulled the gold from my purse and handed it to the woman.
"Thanks."
She pointed me to the room and I went in. I laid down and went to sleep.
