(Did he?)

Malachi and several other important looking Bosmer entered, including Valuril.

Malachi produced an sealed envelope, opened it, and cleared his throat.

"Daithi Camoran's will reads as so:

'In the event of my untimely death I have laid out a contingency plan for Valenwood. But firt, a notice: I never intended to remain in power. In fact, shortly after a favorable victory I wanted to make the monarchy completely constitutional and create a parliament, which would run Valenwood. However, after several unsettling betrayals, such as Finbar's, I realized that without my supervision, that would not be possible. Thus, I am handing,'"  Malachi's voice slowed down as he read the words in shock, "'Valenwood over to the Tamrielic Empire and His Majesty Emperor Makoru I; under the condition that it remain entirely soverign and it make and have complete influence over it's own governing descisions. In turn the Empire will protect from enemies, foriegn, and domestic; and it will have Valenwoods full support militarily, politcally, and economically. Regarding the economy, I would like to donate what remains of my estate, after mercenary payments are levied, to the treasury.'"  Malachi almost choked.  Valenwood wouldn't have to worry about going backrupt anytime soon.  "As for Valenwood's first provincial governor, I name Kazzris of Elsywer, a trustworthy friend and ally. Valuril will remain the military's senior officer, and Malachi will be the minister of domestic affairs, such as finances. The rest of you 'officals' are redundant power grabbers who'd I'd see beheaded if I believed in that sort of thing. You flourished under Thalmor rule by oppressing your own people, and now you will pay for it."  Malachi closed the letter.  "That is all Daithi has to say on matters regarding Valenwood."

There were quite murmurs and shocked glances.

"All of you: dismissed." Malachi spoke to the ministers and officals gathered. "We will discuss it more tomorrow."

As they left, he pulled out a second letter and approached the mercenaries.

"These are Daithi's final words to all of you:  'You will each by paid a sum of 50.000 septims for services rendered.  I thank each of you for your help and cooperation.  I certainly wish we had ended on better terms and that I hadn't died.  That probably wasn't fun.'"  Malachi began handing out big purses of gold to each member. When he reached Uvaryl he handed the Dunmer a folded note as well.

"He said he wanted you to have this.  I haven't looked at it.  I have no idea what it says."

He handed Uvaryl his purse and note, and continued dishing out pays.

When Uvaryl opened the note, it was a series of numbers. It took Uvaryl to realize they were coordinates... and that they pinpointed somewhere in east Falkreath.
