"You take point..."

The voices of the imperials echoed throughout the tunnel. By the time it reached Veneficus, it was nothing but a mere whisper.

The old man sighed again, dread rising within him.

I have to keep these people safe.

"Look!" He hissed in a hushed voice as the people walking through the tunnel grew ever more fearful.

"Keep moving everyone! This passage leads out under the walls. Flee eastwards, to Morrowind. Go!"

"Veneficus! Don't do this!"

"Sorry...but it is the only way to keep you safe. Now move!"

The citizens of Cheydinhal all turned and continued down the tunnel, some had tears in their eyes and others remaind silent with stony faces, accepting what their priest was intending to do.

Only Corelas stayed behind, confused over what was happening.

"Ve-" He mumbled, voice failing him.

"Corelas...old friend." Veneficus said with a sad smile. "Go with them. I'll be back to take you for your walk before you know it. Keep them safe alright?"

The Altmer nodded slowly, taking a few seconds before his brain processed the Priests request. He waved to Veneficus before he followed on with the rest of Cheydinhals residents.

Veneficus steeled himself and headed back through the tunnel. Back to his chapel. His city.

His fate.
