CHAPTER 3.
The 4 travlers finally got off in Balmora, Whitetip had never seen anything like it. " It's beautiful I've never been to a city before." Whitetip gasped. "You said you needed to find Caius Cosades?" Barrdago asked. Whitetip bobbed her head in response to the Khajit's question. Baardago was a Senche-tiger also known as Senche-raht his stripes were very bold though he had been starved his coat was still shiny and healthy and his every move had that familiar predatory grace one associates with cats. Back in his homeland he had been the son of a great leader, his father had died while protecting him his father's brother who loved his nephew like his on son raised him until that day Baardago stayed to far from the lair and was captured and sold into bondage for years now he'd been seeking a way to escape so he could return to his homeland and take his place as his pack's leader. Banalz knew that when Baardago left for Elsweyr she'd follow him too. Banalz was gray seafoam in color with pale blue markings on her muzzle and back with darker dull blue markings in them all the way to her tail, she had three short spikes on her head each with and iron ring on it, her underside was pale gray, She was wearing the green and yellow shirt and yellow common skirt the group had found in the cave. The entire group was bedraggled looking.
"Baardago do you know where he is?" Whietip asked. "I think...I'm not sure cause I heard this off a bosmer fellow a while ago he lives across the river in the northeastern most house in the city." Baardago replied. "Then we'll look there." Whietip replied. The group reached the bunker a while later. Whietip walked up and knocked on the door. An Imperial man opened the door. He was in his late 40's but was very healthy looking for his age seeing as he had no shirt on. "Who are you guys?" He asked. "I'm Whitetip and these are my friends. I have orders from the Emperor to report to you." Whitetip tried to explain. "Really, mind if I have a look at those papers?" He asked. "Sure, here they are." Whietip said. "You can all come in let me put my shirt on first...Now it says here Whitetip you're to obey my orders. Are you ready to do that?" Caius asked. Whietip decided she had nothing to lose and she'd best return the emperor's kindeness for getting her out of prison. "Yes sir." She replied gently. " Welcome aboard agent Whietip you're now a member of the Blades, we're an Intelligent based organization on gathering evidence, information and data on the enemies of the Empire. Our offical outfit is in the Imperial Capitol in Cyrodil." Caius replied shaking her hand. Whitetip realised that she had been rescued from slavery and placed into the prison for her own safety. The Empire wanted her to do something important for them. She wondered what made her so special she was a mere slave. However she had just been given a new purpose in life. She had always respected and upheald the laws of the Empire for she knew Uriel Septum was a generous man and a good leader. He was making efforts to try to outlaw safety but the altmer and dunmer senators ruled against his ideaology.
"Well first I want you to get you and your friends some new clothes, get yourself a decent weapon, go to the Blades Trainers and join a few guilds. I'd suggest the South Wall Guild, The Balmora Fighters Guild or the Mages Guild and Hlaalu house. Also tragically Ondres Nerano a Hlaalu member has passed away, but before he did he was a great supporter of our most recent mission because of his religious beliefs, in his will he left his home and entire fortune to you Whitetip. He would've wanted to meet you in person but it wasn't meant to be." Caius answered giving the four each 200 septums. "I've never been left anything why would a complete stranger want to leave me a slave of all things his fourtune?" Whietip asked surprised. "I don't know although he mentioned something about an argonian solider saving his life and Ondres wanted to pay him back...anyway Whietip you're dismissed. After you've received your training and are a little more knowldegeble about Morrowind you may come back to me for your first mission. You may go now." Caius said saluting her. "Yes sir! " She replied. She nodded to her companions and the left to find their knew home.
Finally they came upon Nerano manor. "Is that it?" Banalz asked. "Yes our new home...for now." Whitetip said. They opened the door and went in. For the first time in her life Whietip had, friends, freedom, a home and a real occupation. Little did the weary group know someone had been watching them it was an argoniaon named Surya she was a very powerful member of Dunmer temple but she had a dark secret that even her fellow priests and priestesses didn't know about. She was a spy for Dagoth Ur, She knew if Whietip lived her master's plans would surely fail and fail the must not for Surya and several others knew their very souls depended on it.
