The Return of the Brotherhood
Chapter 1: An Assassin Between Us
The Bosmer set near the table in The Tiber Septim Hotel in the Imperial city. He heard about the murder and hurried to get this case first. Nine years past and he wasn't promoted. The imperials always hated the Wood Elves, Aengvir was lucky. He was a great investigator and solved some of the biggest cases in the history of Cyrodiil, like the murder of the emperor, Uriel Septim VII. If he will find the killer he will be promoted for sure, every one hated the Dark Brotherhood, those bloody killers. They know no mercy or love; they kill for money and that stupid night mother, who is probably even real. Lately rumors were telling that a Khajiit joined them, probably the best, if he could kill a person and pass the guards, he is skilled. He drank cheap mead and went up to his room, he took his bag and his expensive Daedric dagger he found near a ruin of an old Oblivion gate from the Daedric Invasion of 3E 433.
While going down the stairs to the lobby to pay for this night, he noticed a Khajiit that wore dark clothes and sat at the dark corner of the Hotel. No Wonders Aengvir thought, Khajiit like darkness, they have night vision.
Aengvir stared at the Khajiit for sometime, and he knew the Khajiit stared at him back. After five minutes of staring Aengvir stood up and went out of the hotel, breathing fresh air and going towards the Green Emperor Way, just to pick some mushrooms near the graveyard for dinner.
He knew he was followed, but wasn't brave enough to look back. Aengvir walked in the streets of the Talos Plaza District, passing by the big nobles' houses, those were beautiful, made out of white stone, perhaps marble, the Bosmer didn't know. He lived out side the Imperial City, in a big shack in the woods, where he also practices his Marksmanship skill. Aengvir always loved history, he didn't only work in the Imperial City, he also worked in the northern area of Cyrodiil, cities like Chorrol, Bruma and Cheydinhal, letting him visit the Cloud Ruler Temple and the big Oblivion gate. Aengvir kept walking, from the Talos Plaza District to the Green Emperor Way, where the White Gold Tower stood, he could ask for help there. He stopped near one of the Palace Guards and whispered, "Someone is following me?"
The Guard nodded and drew his sword. Aengvir stopped to look behind him, he saw the Khajiit. The creature just stood there, with his fury skin and his dark clothes. The guard, wearing expensive heavy armor made out of silver and gold and holding a silver two-handed sword, walked slowly to the Khajiit.
"Go away you filthy creature! We don't accept beggars and thieves near the Tower." The guard nodded to Aengvir, assuring that every thing is going to be ok, but in this moment of distraction, the Khajiit jumped on the Imperial and took his sword. He is strong for a Khajiit, thought Aengvir, Perhaps too strong… magic!
Aengvir ran away, letting the Khajiit finish his work with the guard and then run after him, the Khajiit race was known for their acrobatics, they could ran fast and jump higher than every other race. He knew the guards will only distract the Khajiit, not kill him, so he called a group of guards that was just going out of the tower, "A murderer! Catch that Khajiit!" Aengvir shouted, he ran as fast as he could, thanking himself the Bosmers were always quick and agile. I will run outside the city, Aengvir thought, to my home, I'll be safer there, the animals will guard the area. Going through the sewers, will be dangerous, so I'll have to sneak my way out the city, blending with the people will be easy. Aengvir ran through the districts, and found his way out the city. He crossed the bridge, also informing the guards near the gates about the Khajiit.
Where is it? Where is it? Qa'Dar searched everywhere for the Bosmer, luckily he survived the guards. It took hours, just going around the city until he found a Khajiit that looked exactly like him, and the Khajiit is probably dead by now, after leaving the city and killing the two other guards, he stole a white horse and galloped into the woods.
