"What about that house?!" chirped Rikki eagerly as they walked down the street.

Cat just sighed. "That house has people living it. Look, you can even see them through the window."

Rikki grumbled something incoherent. "It's not fair. All the best houses are already taken."

"Easy up", said Cat and place a kiss on the Khajiit's cheek. "We will find one just around the corner I am sure..."

"Alright, everybody clear off!" shouted a voice around the nook of the next building. The voice sounded very stern and full of authority.

Probably a guard...

As they reached around the corner they became aware of a gathering of people standing in a circle right in front of the entrance of a house. A group of guards oversaw the situation.

"Wh-what's going on?" asked Rikki nervously.

"Shh", said Cat. "Just observe."

They watched as the guards carried out two bodies covered up in white sheets. The blood had already begun to seep through. Someone had been murdered in the house.

"I heard they found them with their guts torn about and bite marks all over them", whispered a bystander to another. "Someone had been eating on them."

"Alright, clear the way!" commanded the guards as the bodies were carried off.

''Well, I guess we won't be staying there... ''reflected Cat.

As the masses scattered Cat became aware of one man standing behind the crowd looking at them. She couldn't see his face as it was covered by the shadow of his hood, but she could already tell that this man was looking directly at her. His flowing robes reminded her all too well from her dream, leaving her little option but to declare to herself that this was indeed the man she had seen in her dream. Another child of Vaermina...

"Come on", she said and grabbed Rikki by the arm. "We need to get back to the inn."

"But... wait! What for?"

Cat didn't take her eyes of the man. He still stood emotionless and observed as the Breton and the Khajiit were moving along with the rest of the crowd. "Because Windhelm isn't the place for us to live after all..." she replied.
