Manja had been carrying Nepht through the county Cheydinhal hills, the Nord was struggling to hold her upright as the young girl grew heavier by the second. Or perhaps Manja was just growing weaker, which was more likely the case as Nepht, admittedly, didn't weigh much at first and Manja's arms ached fiercely.

She groaned and looked up at the sky, wondering how she got herself knee deep in this mess...

A car door slammed up ahead, causing Manja's spine to shoot up straight and for her to look up as she saw several Penitus Oculatus agents packing up to leave the city gates. The area around the vehicles was barren and dead and there were multiple holes in the ground of various sizes, implying that they had a camp there, up until recently. Manja ducked down, placing Nepht on the floor and looking out, across the wilderness. She hid in the shrubbery as she watched the agents get in their vehicles and drove away.

An Imperial, who looked important, was the last to join them, he had just left the city some time ago, presumably walking out of the gates, the same time that Manja did. She watched as they drove away, wondering what their business was here...

She noticed a lone figure on horizon, stood on the side of the road, like he was waiting for a lift, however, the convoy just drove past him, and so he couldn't be too significant...

She looked away, getting ready to pick up Nepht again, when she saw another figure approach. There was no sign of where this other figure had come from but it seemed to be approaching him. Manja decided to stay put, thinking that it could be a number of things and a few of those things could make an interesting show...

She watched as the two figures embraced and became one slightly bulkier figure, she smiled a bit as she continued to watch, glancing at Nepht, to make sure that she hadn't awoken. Manja's smile faded as she saw the first figure collapse and the second one was still stood over it, she couldn't see what was happening but it looked like she had attacked him as she seemed awfully calm about him collapsing.

Manja drew her bow, stepping closer to the two of them before her foot caught Nepht's arm. She looked over and tutted as she knew that she couldn't leave the Dunmer on her own. If the animals and monsters of the wilderness didn't try to eat her alive, a number of other things would come along and she shuddered to think of what they wanted to do with her.

The Nord picked Nepht up and carried her down the hill, her heels dug into earth as she slid down the hillside, growing more and more frustrated at the fact that she'll surely be seen.

She continued to run over to them both, hoping to stop this, whatever it was.
