"Screw stealth!" Kayleigh Leanne muttered. "Hey, Thalmor! Fus Ro DAH!" Her Shout sent a guard up a pile of steps, and down again. Kayleigh was then taken by surprise by a Thalmor wizard from the next room. With one swing of her Mace of Molag Bal, she left a large gash on the armor and body of that wizard. She sheathed her mace and looked around.

She caught sight of a lone chest in one of the rooms so she made her way to it. She lifted it open with a grunt. Inside, she found 2 journals, one letter, and a key. The letter was about the current Dragon investigation. Apparently, the Thalmor were just as clueless about the Dragon attacks just as Delphine. Kayleigh found this very hard to believe. She kept the letter in her satchel and took a peek at the front pages of the two journals.

Thalmor Dossier: Delphine

Thalmor Dossier: Ulfric Stormcloak

Alright, at least I know Delphine isn't lying about the Thalmor coming after her and all that. But… Ulfric Stormcloak? Why? What does he have to do with this? No time to read these though. Better leave.

So Kayleigh kept the journals in her satchel. There was more to this place, she could sense it. She scanned the floor and found a large metal door that was locked. She decided to try that key she had found in the chest. Bingo!

Location: Dungeon

"GIVE IT UP, NORD!"

"DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO, BITCH!" Kayleigh nearly took the lone Thalmor guards head off. She sheathed her weapon and looked around. Looks like a dungeon. She found yet another chest and opened in. Inside was just a lone item: a journal.

Thalmor Dossier: Esbern

Kayleigh had never heard the name before, so she decided to do a quick reading. So the Thalmor are looking for this Blade guy named Esbern, eh? And they think he's got something to do with the Dragons returning. Better take this to Delphine as well.

Kayleigh then heard the Dungeon door squeak open. She quickly scattered to the stairs and hide behind there.

"Listen up, Spy! We know you're here, and we've got your little accomplice."

"Forget it, Kayleigh. It's over for me."

"Shut up, Elf! Come out and surrender, Spy! Don't make us have to kill you!"

"Not if I do it first!" Kayleigh jumped one of the guards and slammed his head on the ground. Malborn ducked for cover as Kayleigh stabbed the second guard. "They figured it out, eh?"

"Damn right they did! Now the Thalmor are going to be hunting me for the rest of my life!" He was upset.

"Hey, not all hope is lost. Head over to Markarth and speak with a Dibella priestess. Her name is Anwen. Tell her that I sent you. She'll take care of you." Kayleigh suggested.

"How are you sure?"

"She's an old friend of mine." She smiled. "She can be trusted. C'mon. Let's get outta here." She led him down the stairs and past the cages. Kayleigh then spotted a trap door and she was about to open it when she heard someone groaning in pain.

She turned around and looked into each of the cages. There was a man handcuffed to the wall. Kayleigh unlocked the cage door and knelt in front of him. "Hey. Can you hear me?"

"I told you…" He panted. "I don't know anything else about it…"

"Easy there, handsome. I'm not here to hurt you. Hang on. Let me see if I can unlock these cuffs." She managed to unlock them. "There! Come on, I'm gonna get you outta here."

He was a bit dazed, but got most of what Kayleigh said. "Uh, oh! Sure, alright. That trap door is usually locked, you know. Try the guard."

Malborn searched the guard Kayleigh had killed. "Found a key!" He tossed it to Kayleigh.

Kayleigh caught the key and unlocked the door. "Oh yeah! C'mon, boys. We're getting outta here!"
