During the last couple of weeks, a lot has changed in Solitude. People were more focused on the war than anything else. Soldiers, whom there was nearly double the amount now, were actively training, walking around town, patrolling like never before. Felix was in his room, bare chested, doing pull ups on a steel bar. Over the course of the last couple of weeks, he has trained excruciatingly on his strength, stamina, and his willpower. A knock sounded into his room

"Come in." he answered. Liveth entered the room, dressed in her standard, off-duty clothing.

"Good news. Shay arranged a meeting today, this time, we will need you to give us a speech."

"Gods, you know I'm terrible at this, Liv." he said, finish his reps

"I know. But you will do fine, don't worry. It's not like you will be doing a speech in front of the whole hold." she chuckled nervously

"I guess I'll do fine. Any news?" He asked, grabbing a towel, and drinking a cup of water

"Yes, here, read this. I was given this by Olgierd, he told me to bring this to you." she handed him the letter from the Jarl of Markarth

"I see." Felix said, walking around his room, one hand behind his back, reading the letter. He then sat down, grabbed a quill and a neat looking piece of paper, and started writing.

"''To His Grace Lord Victor Ryver, Lord of Markarth,

''I see and understand your point, and as the hold closest (and aligned to the Cyrodiilic Empire), to the subject, I hereby support thou, Lord Victor Ryver of Markarth, to proceed with any kind of occupation over the town of Morthal and the nearby holdings of Hjaalmarch. I would also want to be the first to form an alliance between our holds, and potentially co-operate during a potential take over of Hjaalmarch. To strengthen the trade routes and our war effort against the Stormcloak Rebellion, I therefore ask for a meeting between us, at any given point during this week. The location, whether it's yours or mine holdings, is up to your judgement.

''Sincerely,

''Lord Protector Felix Talionus, Sworn Protector of Haafingar."

"Done." he said, putting the quill back into the inkwell.

"And?" Liveth asked

"The Jarl of Markarth is planning an occupation of Hjaalmarch. I agreed to it."

"Oh, that's good." she sat on the table with one leg "I see you gained quite the muscle." she said in a flirtatious manner

"Of course. With these also comes better strength, and health of the mind." he remarked

"Oh yes. What made you start training so intensively?" she asked

"Geralt said that the only way I could fight on the battlefield without dying of exhaustion is through training of my body. Plus, it also relaxes me, and that's something I really need in times of war."
