Seyda Neen is Far Too Wet

No sooner had Kiseena finished eating food stolen from the Census place than this one was set upon by an elf. Kiseena writes the words "set upon" because the wood elf in question was very strange. He began talking to this one in a way that was surprising. This one is not easy to sneak up on.

The elf said his name was Fargoth. He asked if Kiseena had come from the boat, as this time of day boats are apparently quite rare. Before Kiseena could respond, the elf made mention that he had lost a magic ring that was an heirloom. He claimed that the guards in town like to bother him regularly, and they might have taken it. Curse this one for forgetting herself! Kiseena hesitated in telling the elf she had not seen his ring and so this one could see in Fargoth's eyes that he already knew the answer. Kiseena had to give the elf his magic ring. At the very least, the elf was grateful to have it back. He suggested this one talk to his friend Arrille who owned the local trading house.

When this one was told of freedom (so long as strange package was delivered to Caius), Kiseena was given some coin for expenses. Together with more coins taken from unwatched room with food, going to see Arrille sounded like a good idea. Arrille was an altmer, sometimes called a high elf. Kiseena believes they are called "high" because they are very tall and have golden skin and like to wear expensive things. Arrille was no exception, but he was nice to Kiseena. Much nicer than the altmer that had murdered mother. He suggested that Kiseena buy a weapon and some armor if this one planned to keep living. Vvardenfell is a very dangerous place, it seems. He also said that many people make a living killing outlaws, and all-to-casually spoke of a cave nearby the silt strider dock. Again with those terrible silt-bugs.

Arrille had many things for sale. A nice bow seemed to go well with the dagger Kiseena had found in the Census place. Also a suit of white armor called chitin for the upper-body and matching gauntlets. This one would have bought more, but even after buying such things, Kiseena did not have much money left. Not enough even for trip to Balmora on one of those silt-bug things, for which Kiseena is very grateful.

Perhaps Kiseena should visit outlaws in cave like Arrille says.
