Nepht shuffled out onto the courtyard, she was being held up by Lucian as she was far too weak to stand on her own. She kept her head down, watching the ground as it slowly slid by her. She stepped on the cobblestones, one by one, trying to place her feet inside the square parameters. Her feet were small enough to fit inside its boarders, heel, ball and toes.

The Dunmer looked up to see a group of patrolling guards and quickly found herself unable to look away as she found herself enthralled by their necks.

''It wouldn’t be bad if I didn’t kill them, would it? J-Just a few seconds… ''

She found herself pulling away from Lucian’s grip and shuffling towards them, they hadn’t seen her yet, which would make this easier.

Much easier…

Nepht kept her eyes fixed on the guards; she could see the veins in their necks, the blood it contained…

“Nepht!” Lucian appeared in front of her and wrapped a cloak around her, forcing her to look away before marching towards the gate. The Dunmer gasped and began to pant; she would have killed those people, if he hadn’t have intervened.

“I… I can’t…”

The Imperial broke away and looked down to her, he couldn’t stop now, they were so close!

“You have to, we can’t stay in the city, it’s too dangerous…”

“I don’t want to kill, I’d rather die!”

Lucian hushed her, to keep her voice down either of those words on their own would likely draw them some attention.

“Come on, stay focussed, you’re doing well!”

''Need blood… ''

''J-Just a bit… ''

''Nobody has to die… ''

''J-Just… G-G-Give me what I want… ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">Nepht shook her head, she couldn’t do this anymore, every third thought was about blood and every tenth was about killing. She knew that she was losing her grip on her humanity…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">“L-L…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">“We’re here!” He interrupted her, sighing in relief as he pushed against the main gate and began to open it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">“Where are we going?” She asked, timidly as the gate was slowly pushed open, it was doable on your own but it was easier when the guards did it for you, which they refused to do at night, unless you were physically incapable.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">Lucian had managed to open the left gate by himself and he gestured for Nepht to follow, she obliged, shuffling through them and stopping as soon as she was outside the city walls.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">“C’mon, we’re going ‘home…” Lucian whispered.
