It began to grow dark. The transportation for Odine was almost done. That tree has been eavesdropping on everyone. I eventually dragged Odine and placed it within the Box. Odine's roots warpped to fit within the crate.
Odine spoke to , "Little cramped, but this will do. It is unfinished though isn't it."
Jorgen admired his handy work. So I decided to answer Odine by asking Jorgen a question. "So we just need the handles to push the thing and the wheels."
Jorgen looked over, "Haha! Yes!" He paused, "Can I use your design for other things? These wheels of yours are amazing!"
He was referring to my omnidirectional wheels. I didn't want to be stuck pushing a fucking tree on direction up the hills of Solitude. So with a little extra work. The cart would have omnidirectional wheels and could be pushed all directions.
I nodded, "I wouldn't mind. However I think you'd have to pay for it. You could likely use it to make so extra cash and traffic to Morthal. I'd need sothing of higher value or maybe write up a contract for a percentage of profits? That would be difficult though since I am from here."
Jorgen nodded, "Understandable. I'll think of sothing."
This was another reason why I used the design for omnidirectional wheels. As well as helping during the building of said cart. I gave him a smile and a nod and whispered to Odine as I left. "I will go kill so vampires. Tell what he plans on giving for the designs when you can."
Odine scoffed, "Whatever, I'm not your spy."
I rolled my eyes. I checked my quest log and saw that this was the ti. I marched out of Morthal towards a small graveyard. A woman had a shovel. Sure enough she was digging up a grave of Helgi.
She had seemingly brought two shovels. Then I froze as I realized she wasn't alone. "Laelette! What have I told you."
Another woman showed up, that was Alva. Laelette shook her head. "We can help her Alva! She can beco like us."
Alva scoffed, "We talked about this Laelette." She sighed, "Look I understand. I know you feel bad about killing Helgi since you have a son her age. I even know you still watch your old family."
Alva moved to Laelette and held her mouth. I watched Alva use so kind of magic. I narrowed my eyes. Vampiric seduction, it seed Laelette was still a fledgling. She hadn't fed on a living person yet. She likely tried to turn Helgi through biting her. However due to the fire a vampire's weakness she rushed it and killed the girl.
I rubbed my beard. Laelette was likely in a similar state as Hroggar. I smirked, with Falion's help I could cure her. Perhaps... Heh, in the na of the greater good. I could get him to fix Azura's star into the Black star. I didn't need Nelacar for the quest after all. I had read Malyn's grimoire.
No, that plan had to be scrapped. Falion wouldn't risk angering a daedric god. I'd need soone skilled in conjuration who is either dumb like Nelacar or uncaring about the consequence of making the Black Star.
I'll still knock Laelette out in hopes of using her. Alva could be killed freely though. They were still arguing though. Should I just fire off an arrow? Sadly I didn't have silver arrows or sothing. Vampires were stronger than your average bandit. Not to ntioned I didn't want to catch vampirism from them.
When Laelette turned picking the shovel back up Alva Stomped her feet. She then grabbed the other shovel and swung it at Laelette's head. A tal thump rang out and Laelette dropped. That solved one of my problems. Laelette seed to be knocked out, but Alva raised the shovel again.
I guess she was planning on killing her. I pulled out my bow and shot an arrow as fast as I could. The Arrow went flying right past Alva and I sighed. I missed, completely.
She snapped toward my direction and I pulled out my new lucky dagger. Alva narrowed her eyes, "Who are you? Aren't you that tree rchant?"
I corrected, "Not a tree rchant. Just a traveler with a tree."
She dropped the shovel and hger hands began to glow. "Doesn't matter. You saw , so now I have to kill you."
I just shook my head. "Wow that is cliche. Let guess you also skinned your cousin's cat. Though I'm no Khajiit."
That left her confused so I charged at her. Her eyes widened, the magic she was about to use disappeared as she stumbled backwards. However that magic was quickly returned as a red glow filled her hand.
I tried to dodge the vampiric drain however I felt energy literally leave my body. I stabbed into her stomach. "You bastard!"
She kicked off her. She had stopped using her magic and pinned on the ground. She had a lot more strentgh than I expected. "Look into my eyes!"
Sadly I did lock eyes with her. However my hand glowed from the reinforcent spell. She smiled, "You will be a great thrall."
I stabbed her in the stomach again and again. She looked down in shock. I slamd a knee into her and pushed her away. She stumbled onto her feet, "How? You should be under my spell."
I stabbed her shoulder and pushed her down. "Simple! Magic bitch." I slashed her throat and she began finally fucking dying. However I wasn't taking chances. So I stabbed her so more. Once I figured she wouldn't get up.
I got to my feet. The spell reinforcent doubled my physical strength. So I was able to break free from the vampiric seduction with brute force. Truth be told I used it hoping it would protect from being bitten.
My eyes focused in on a light growing closer. It seed I was unlucky enough to attract attention. Looking at the horribly stabbed Alva and the knocked out Laelette. This looked bad, however it seed I was lucky.
Falion stepped over the small hill and shook his head. "I am honestly shocked."
I pointed at him. "Help grab this woman. She is Thonnir's wife, you can cure her of vampirism right?"
Truth be told though she was still a creep in my eyes. I guess that was just the context of digging up a little girl's grave after murdering her. Falion walked over and sighed. "Sure enough she is a fledgling. Lucky us, we won't need a black soul gem."
I snapped my head to him. "What? I thought you always needed a black soul gem."
Falion laughed, "Ah, no. Only if the individual has fed on soone or has beco a vampire lord. It is a thing about them losing a part of their humanity. So they have a part of it restored by the black soul gem."
I paused, "That's fucked up. You are taking the innocence of the black soul gem to restore the innocence of the individual."
Falion shrugged, "It isn't a science." He shook his head, "You can handle carrying the woman back to Morthal. I will rebury the coffin. Once I am done I will grab Alva and bring her corpse after you."
I sighed and grabbed the unconscious Laelette. I paused though deciding on tying her up first. Just in case she wakes up. Once she was secure I started dragging her into town. When I started getting within the vicinty I waved. "Hey! Can I get so help here! Is this Thonnir's wife?"
One of the guards ran over. The guard looked at Laelette and he stood in shock. "Holy Shit! This is Laelette! Go get Thonnir!"
I paused, "Might want to check her teeth and eyes bud. Pretty sure she is a vampire. Let tell ya one hell of a story!"
With this I can spin Falion in s better light as he 'helped' . I could also ntion how he knows how to cure Laelette. Though her sanity may not be what it used to."
