After finishing up, Ren dried herself up and put on her armor. At least the smell of a wet dog was gone.

Someone knocks at her door. "Who is it?" Ren asked.

"A friend." A familiar voice told her from behind the door. Ren was suddenly frozen in fear. She knew that voice. It was Griever.

Although hesitant for a bit, she grabs a dagger and hides behind the other room, waiting for Griever to break in and hopefully surprise her with a sneak attack.

"Hello? Anybody there? I'm coming in." The door is opened even though it was locked. Griever picked the lock to the door and started looking around the house.

"Hmm... Nice house. Perfect enough for a... romantic scene..." Griever said as if she was talking to herself. She knew Ren was inside the house, and that there was no use hiding anyway since the former can smell even the faint scent of the latter.

Ren bursts out of her hiding place and tries to stab Griever in the throat, but the latter quickly counters and throws the former at the ground in a hold.

"That isn't a nice way to treat a guest..!" The latter exclaimed as she held the former down.

"Wh-What do you want..!? How did y-you find me..!?"

"Isn't it a little obvious? I heard you left Solitude months ago to join the Stormcloaks. As for what I want... I need your head for a bounty."

"Tch..!"

"Now now, Ren. The people of Solitude is still willing to forgive you. Even Captain Aldis told me that all past crimes will be forgotten... as long as you return to where you once lived peacefully: In Solitude."

"H-H-How do I know you aren't lying..!?"

Guards then break in to Ren's house and spots the commotion. Griever immediaely turns into mist and makes her escape. The guards knew it was futile to catch a vampire in mist form and decided to help Ren instead.

"Milady! Are you alright!?"

"Y-Yeah..." Ren replied as she held her left arm in pain. Griever's hold was indeed painful thanks to the latter's inhuman strength.

After several minutes, Ren thanks the guards and leaves her alone in her house. The young squire and the guards of Windhelm prepared extra security measures this time with the help of the city's Priest of Arkay.
