Pairings: F/F, Caeila/Lydia, Caeila/Aela, Azrael/Astrid, Azrael/Vex, Azrael/Sapphire, Iona/Vex
Summary: Caeila grew up a warrior, a prodigy, a blue-blooded noblewoman destined for greatness (yet she only wanted freedom). Azrael was a troublemaker, a bastard, a reject of society on a downwards spiral (yet she only wanted redemption). It was the Imperial City that brought them together, but it is Helgen that keeps them inseperable. (Double Dovahkiin, F/F)

A young girl passes by a poster plastered onto the wall of the Imperial City. She leans forward, squints at the likeness of two women etched onto the paper, and she nearly drops her basket full of fruits and vegetables. She recognizes those faces, childhood friends of hers.
The first is a half-Imperial, half-Bosmer woman with wild hair and determined eyes. She remembers her dearly. The prodigal daughter of her noble house, Caeila Kokabiel Valeria is known for her prowess in batle, her steady form, her intense gaze, her fiery determination. She is a knightly in attitude, gentle in nature, down-to-earth in temperament. She holds a sword with strength and vigor, a hand with comfort and passion, a gift with tenderness and love. The young girl remembers looking up to her, the visionary, the role model, the nobleborn with a heart of gold... she is missing, and it breaks her heart.
When she closes her eyes, she sees Caeila in her mind. Tan skin and brown hair, wrestled into archaic braids from each of her temples to the back of her head. She stands tall, towering over the tall girl, wearing full set of fur armor and an ebony pendant hanging from her neck. Warpaint covers her eyes, charcoal stains like teartracks on both of her prominent cheeks, and her smile is reassuring, steady, one that fills the girl with strength.
The second is a half-Dunmer, half-Nord woman with narrowed eyes and an angular face. She is not so fond of this woman, but recognizes her nevertheless. Azrael Malphas Methylon grew up a street urchin, the same orphanage as her, but Azrael is far darker than any of her kind. Her determined flair is often taken for dominance, stubborness, and outright insubordination, usually overlooked because she is a bastard of a highborn. She is shadows incarnate, silent but omnipotent, everywhere and nowhere. She, too, is missing, but the girl doesn't know how she feels about that.
When she looks over her shoulder, she can imagine Azrael in the shadows of the alley. Gray skin and black locks, astoundingly beautiful but poised for the kill. She is crouched low, blending into the darkness, her crimson eyes flashing in the shadows. Her features are pronounced and sharp, her teeth perfectly white as her lips pull into a grin worthy of Azura's pride. Daedra-spawn with the beauty of an Aedra, and it fills the girl with fear.
She turns away from the poster. Azrael and Caeila. She knows them as inseperable, so who is to say that they did not run awa together? They are of age, capable of handling themselves, but why would the? Azrael, she would understand, but Caeila? She had her entire life ahead of her, one good deed after another, so why would she leave?
The young girl feels dread creep up her spine and she turns away from the poster. She fears the worst, she always does.

A/N: Short and sweet, yeah? Greetings, gentle-viewers! I have five stories up and running, but most of them are prompt-based so I have some time to kill. Here's a side story for all of you lovely people. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim! I love this game to bits and pieces, and I decided to make a story out of it. Hurrah?
Information about the characters! Caeila is a half-Imperial, half-Bosmer noblewoman who excels at spellsword-type skills. In my mind, she looks like Alycia Debnam-Carey from The 100. Azrael is a half-Dunmer, half-Nord spellsword who excels at thief-type skills. In my mind, she looks like a young, dark elf version of Olivia Wilde.
Next update will be... bah, I don't have a timeframe. I suck at time management. Ciao, gentle-viewers!
