A tierus journey here…well least from Anvil it was. Horse back was painful enough. Least the Imperial guards cared to take her to Burma, then she sent them back. Now was only her and a Bruma guard, though he would leave to as soon as they started seeing the large fortress in the distance.
“Wonder they’ll be happy to see me?” she smirked brushing back her hair then looked towards the tall long brown haired man, who said nothing. “I know they’ll like you, you don’t talk much, your loyal, and housebroken.” she razed a brow, still no reaction. She sighed lightly. “I’m Sure they will be.” the Bruma Guard assured her. She just seemed to ignore him.
“I can go from here, thank you sir.” she nodded to the guard, and the male with her handed him a small bag of coins then both of them ventured forward towards the building, she smirked, hoping off her horse and pulling her good back and gave her cape a small toss back [but still on] as it flapped a bit in the air. As she took a deep breath eyes closed. Before giving a loud knock on the door. “Rise and shine, though most of you dogs should already be awake!” she shouted. Then took a few steps back and smiled waving towards the lookouts above the door. “well let me in!”

It was a normal quiet afternoon at the temple, well quiet for a place of training for many men and women. though a strange person stood out amongst the rest. he stood taller than everyone, he was considered to have golden or sun kissed features. and at the moment he was sparring. mind you it wasn't the normal sparring you'd see around cloud ruler. he was punching and kicking the grandmaster, though the high elf wasn't doing what he normally did while fighting like putting magicka damage into his kicks and punches. he was practicing, and handing the grandmaster his arse on a silver platter while he was doing it. the grandmaster suggested he spare with someone to let off some steam, well the grandmaster offered.
Aegnor was about to knock the grandmaster on his arse a third time when there was a loud knocking on the front doors. the grandmaster visibly sighed in thankfulness though almost cringed when he herd the voice of said intrusion.
"well boys let her in.." he said to some members by the gate mechanism. "we aren't done yet Jauffree..." Aegnor said with a smile and Jaufree sighed and readied him self, though jaufree knew he'd be doing the same thing to Aegnor if they were sparring with swords...he wondered if the high elf even knew how to use a sword...

“hah-hah.” she chuckled as they opened the door. “warm welcoming indeed.” she said in her half scratchy tone and smiled brushing back her hair then paused looking around her travel companion had stayed outside. “fine fine, stay there I’ll be back.” she sighed and pulled her cape off and tossed it to him before walking up the steps. As the doors closed. “Hey anyone miss me here?” she asked reaching the top, wearing pants and a silver colored bust armor, seemed to be somewhat decorative, one would maybe think it was not used for battle.
Falcan was Watching the Grandmaster and Agenor training, drinking a hot cup of coco. He felt lazy….but he was tired. Who knew so much running about plus more would take so much out of someone. He sighed lightly then paused looking towards the strange woman. “uhmm…” he blinked a little dumbly.
“Sparing are we, aw…well…now I might have to leave if I get jealous.” she laughed and gave a wave towards the grandmaster. “didn’t forget about me did you?”

"who could ever forget about you Balsa." Jaufree said as he blocked another punch from Aegnor...ya know sparing like this might be a good thing for the rest of the blades...
"Balsa I'd like you to meet Aegnor, no he isn't a potential recruit of the blades." Jaufree said and Aegnor stopped mid-kick at jaufree and looked over at the woman. Aergnor put his leg down and grabbed his tunic of the ground re putting it on. Jaufree was shocked to see the muscles at first on the high elf as most high elves are mages...well this one was a mage but still... he packed an incredible punch.
Aegnor walked over next to Falcan, and leaned against the side of the building better let jaufree catch up. "so Falcan i herd you brought a lady to the temple?" Aegnor grinned.
speaking of said lady she was sound asleep in the sleeping quarters as no one slept during the day. her amulet for her sun protection was with Falcan getting the energy it needed from the sun so by tomorrow she could be outside like everyone else.

Balsa laughed and walked towards him and Aegnor giving a small bow. “it has been a while. How are you?” she asked then looked towards Aegnor and giggled something before trying to focus again. “I see.” she looked around. “you seem to have many visitors.” she smirked folding her arms. But then she looked serious.
“I was on my way around, when I passed Kavatch.” she added. “So I figured, I’d drop by.” she nodded. “I’ve heard the rumors.” she added. “about Oblivion. So I came to offer any service able.” she smiled and looked back towards the doors. “alas my young ward was afraid to come it.” she smirked. She then nodded to the Blade’s Master and walked towards Aegnor and Falcan eyeing them a moment.
Falcan was about to speak to Aegnor then looked at the strange woman….eyeing them up…what? He looked a littler nervous.
“Oh my by the nine there so cute!” she boasted. “Half one is ok but man…” she leaned towards Aegnor. “heh I don’t bite, but I love elves….” she giggled. Falcan scoffed and giggled a bit into his cup looking towards Aegnor.

Aegnor just stared at the woman slightly aghast. who in the world?? he grinned. "my dear you couldn't bite hard enough for me, besides lacking the needed hard lines of a man. and having certain attributes i so don't like i dares say your barking up the wrong tree." Aegnor said with a chuckle.
Jaufree just sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose. and walked over "Balsa no harassing the 'hired' help. and i would be glad for your help I'll send some men down to get your ward, and horses." he looked to falcan, not seeing a certain lady.
"Falcan is the lady feeling well?"

“hum…” Balsa folded her arms. “ah well, sorry Hun, didn’t really see it that way.” she smirked. “but don’t change anything.” she smirked. “Just found of elves, though not in a relation ship you still may want to watch out.” she chuckled and turned towards the male and smiled. “Aye-aye.” he nodded taking a few steps away.
Falcan blinked dumbly. “wow she’s…interesting.” he smirked and looked to Aegnor. Then looked towards the Grandmaster and smiled light with a nod. “she is just still…weak.” he added. “She should be alright soon.” he mind wondered what would happen they found out she was a vampire!? He looked a little odd then relaxed looking back towards Balsa.
She yawned and stretched. “But I may have to harass him later if I have to ask him a favor.” she chuckled. Falcan made a slight face and looked back at the full Altmer and smirked. Like a silent ‘hah’ then sighed.
--
As the blades walks up the stairs with her horse and so called follower was no where to be seen. The men shrugged. “he wouldn’t come.” they stated blankly and Balsa sighed. “ah well.” she waved a hand. “he’ll come he gets hungry.” she said.

Aegnor sighed, heavily and playfully glared at Falcan, "you see this is why i don't like women so pushy." he said good naturdly Aegnor letting out a yawn an shivering slightly "i think i am going to head in its rather cold out here..." Aegnor left and went back into the hall most likely to keep Martin company. he had been hanging out inside often since Yggdrasil's...incident and the vanishing act he pulled the other day. he looked rather depressed, he was actually asked by martin to stay near by when he found out he was spending too much time in the Aylied ruin just before the boarder to Skyrim. "Martin how are things coming?" he said as he sat down across from the imperial who had books piled next to him, in front of him he bet he would have had them piled behind him if he could.
~~~ Jaufree sighed at the Altmer, when he left. and smirked Balsa was the same as he remembered. boy some of these boys were going to get it handed to them with this woman. "so Balsa i have some information to tell you about recent developments." Jaufree waved Balsa towards the inside to go to his office.

“hum.” she smiled watching the elf walk off then looked back at the Head Master and nodded. “alright would be nice.” she added fallowing him. Falcan seemed to be almost completely alone soon after. “uhg…” he sighed a little narrow eyed then stood and headed back inside the main room. Soon he’d need to leave on his mission, but why the heck did the Blades have no blacksmith? He’d have to go lord knows where….to get his blades fixed and he didn’t trust just anyone.
He sighed lightly, looking towards Martin and Aegnor before looking away and then back to his glass in his hand and walked towards the pantry/kitchen area.
---
Meanwhile Balsa looked around, place couldn’t feel more like home. “So please if you don’t mind telling me?” she smiled kindly.

Jaufree lead Balsa to his office and started to tell her about the crisis, Martin and of course Martin's champions. and the recent development of one turning against them. though Jaufree left no expense to press this matter as he sounded as if he wanted his hands wrapped around the elf's throat.
"...but what i don't get is Martin isn't mad at all...he seems like he expected it too happen." he sighed "i guess that bugs me and that high elf and he were 'partners'... he isn't taking it well." Jaufree said while looking out the window seeing the mountains.
"anyway Balsa so are you back to whip the boys into shape?" he said with a chuckle.

Balsa’s eyes widened at the mentioning of a heir, that seemed to shake her a bit, but in a good way, she watched him, she really had no right to say much on the fact of the traitor, though defiantly had no idea it was THAT elf. “I’m amazed….really.” she nodded. “seems I came right in time.” she smirked lightly. “seems like your doing a good job.” she nodded, then put a hand on his shoulder. “sometimes, you just have to work with what is thrown at you.” she added.
Then smirked and let out a small laugh. “Oh? Can I? I wouldn’t mind whipping a few back into shape.” she smirked putting her hands on her hips. “I’d also…like to do some training here before it gets to late.” she added. “I can test a few then.” she laughed then paused eyes growing soft. “sorry….guess still love elves.” she scratched the back of her head then sighed lightly. “but my guy out there….has some kind of issues, I can do anything with him.” she sighed, tipping a empty glass a little to see if anything was in there. ‘empty.’ she muttered under her breath then twisted around arms folded behind her back.

"the good stuff is in the cupboard if you want it." Jaufree said as he sat behind his desk, thinking. "go ahead we have some fresh blood that could use some 'tenderizing' so to speak. He grabbed a bottle of something and took a sip.
~~~
Aegnor sat and listened to Martin as he was telling him what he was translating...and going to do. "i don't agree with you on binding yourself to the book Martin. but if its the only way, then alright...do you have any idea what we need first?" "uh... sadly no my friend not yet..."
~~ Alessandra was awake actually for once during the day. she was sitting in the bedding she had been given, she was board. "it could be worse... i could be dead..." she rubbed her arm. she had come so very close to loosing her life death she wanted to avoid that at all cost again. though she knew life and death situations were going to come in frequency as the Crisis waxed and waned. she could feel sop many emotions running rapid in this place. she leaned back wondering if she could get a book somehow...or something. she folded her arms...she wondered if there was any windows in the main room.

Balsa chuckled and opened the counter looking at what there was to drink before taking a bottle. “thanks.” she nodded then sat in a extra chair and folded her legs. He opened it and took a drink. “would be happy to help.” she smirked. “besides gives me a chance to show off some skills most don’t think women can use.” she laughed.
--
Meanwhile.
Falcan took a deep breath and lightly taped on his friends door before sliding it open he expected her to be a sleep but blinked a few times seeing her awake. “oh hello…sorry did I wake you?” he asked carrying some things he bowed down and set them on the table, a plate or raw venison, a bit of bread and some whine in a bottle. He smiled light tilting his head. “how are you feeling?” he asked almost feeling bad again.

Alessandra sat up when Falcan came in. "no my dear you haven't woken me. i have been up...it is hard to sleep here..." she said. she was in a borrowed robe from cloud ruler as some one needed to repair her armor. it felt strange to her to be in something humble-like as the only robes available were priest robes. "it is strange to be wearing robes of a holy man..." she said with her head tilted and then smiled. "you brought me food? how thoughtful..."
~~~
Jaufree but the bottle away after a two more sips from it. "well balsa want to see the recruits?" he said getting a salve out and took off the bracers he wore and took a look at the bruising. and he had a feeling Aegnor was pulling those punches and kicks...
"you wouldn't happen to know a good method for sparring with a person who is incredibly efficient in hand to hand combat?" he said while rubbing the salve on and grabbing the gauze.

Falcan smiled lightly. “its alright just relax, and yea…” he nodded looking to the plate. “when ever your ready to eat.” he added. “Please if you need anything else, just let me know.” he nodded watching her. “not all priests are holly.” he smirked razing a brow then lightly put a hand on her shoulder.
---
Balsa looked to the male seeming to be in pain, and sighed lightly. “hum, something to think about.” she paused rubbing her chin. “I think….best way for someone not normally trained in that kind of combat, other then not loosing your sword somehow, could be to go on the defensive, block all vital areas best you can .” she shrugged. “ouch looks like he whipped you good.” she chuckled then paused waving a hand.
“I’m alright with a blade, but finely perfected my spear abilities.” she stated. “So I could throw them off some.” she smirked then glanced back out the window. “that friend of mine…is going to turn into a popsicle.” she sighed deeply rubbing her brow.
"So yea." she stood. "I want to meet them." she added takeing another few drinks then set the bottle down and rubbed her shoulder. "now youve got me all excited." she laughed.
