Jack pulled up his hat and frowned. "It's a long story. Mak is... troubled. He was royal, once. A Crown royal, to be precise. He and his brother fled Hammerfell with their lovers, but they didn't get far. They ended up having to settle in Skyrim until it was safe to return, but only Ghede and his lover, Cassandra, ever did. Makoru's lover, Iman, was kidnapped and killed before a month had passed." he said, voice laced with pity.

"Before she was killed, though, he took every precaution he could to protect her. He sold himself to the Daedra, much like I did. He became one of the famed Nightingales, although the full story is... difficult to describe. He also took up friendship with the Underworld Guild... nasty place, that is. He took up jobs there to make money, just to get by." he added unhappily.

"I don't know a lot about Torene, honestly. She's a witch from the Coven of Meridia, and she met Makoru on a job in High Rock. They grew close, then... well, I suppose they lost touch. They met again on some gods-forsaken island, where they grew closer, until they gradually became lovers. There was a short bout in Glenmoril, and Makoru disappeared for a while, but they found each other again during the time of Sithis' return. After that... well, they grew apart. Makoru did, however, put me in charge of protecting her, and I refuse to break my promise." he said with a steely voice.
