As Orion headed back towards the secret entrance of the Thieves Guild, he recounted on everything that has been happening.

First I find out my Guild is being messed with, find out Tonilia is dead, and the guild apparently has a Dwemer. A Damn Dwemer! By the 8, what other surprises am I in store for now?

A damp breeze swept his face as the secret entrance finally closed shut and was now facing towards the cistern of the guild. Sapphire and the Dwemer woman appeared to be taking shots at the firing range near the secret entrance. The Dwemer woman noticed Orion and whispered something to sapphire before heading off towards him.

"Guildmaster, Brynjolf wanted to see you as soon as you got back, he is waiting for you in the vault alongside Vex, Karliana, and Karliah."

"Thank you, ummm…?"

"Ah, I apologize deeply to you my guildmaster, I haven't properly introduced myself. My name is Shalinahza Dwemlozina, or if that's too hard for you, you can just call Shalina for short" said the woman, somewhat sounding condescending as elves typically tend to sound sometimes.

Orion wasn't too surprised by the length of her name if trying to learn the names of Dwarven cities were anything. He thanked Shalina and told her that he was going to see what they needed immediately. Shalina inclined at this and made her way back to Sapphire to continue practicing with her bow.

After a few minutes Orion found himself inside the vault of the thieves guild with alongside Vex, Brynjolf, Karliah, and Karliana.

"So here's the plan fellas: I found this on one of the dead assassins that attacked Orion and Karliana last night and thought I should bring it to attention" Brynjolf said this as he pulled out a small piece of paper alongside a part of what seem liked what was a dragon claw out of his satchel.

He set them on the central table inside the vault so that everyone in the room could get a better view.

"A part of a dragon-claw key?" Karliana inquised.

"What did the torn note say?" Orion spoke after.

"To point out the important bits of it, it has half of a name to a location and unfortunately, we don't have the other half." Vex injected. "We had our fences and contacts try to make it out but even they said they couldn't recognize or make a name."

"Well let me see the note"

Vex picked up the torn scrap of paper and handed it to Orion.

It read the following:

Jana, the targets are heading towards Riften, probably to ask their spineless guild for help. Ambush them while they're close to Riften but far away enough that only the guild will find their corpses. Report back to Rel-

Blyz-

"Hmmm…. I know one thing, the Blyz part has to be a dwarven city." Orion pondered.

He would ponder through his thoughts and recent events until he made a sudden realization.

"How long ago did Shalina join the guild?" Orion questioned

"She joined around a couple weeks ago lad, why do you ask this?" Brynjolf said.

"Who else would have extensive knowledge on Dwemer cities and locations none other than a dwemer themself?"

"Orion, you're a genius actually, wow why didn't we think about that." Vex said.

"Hey Vex, lass, go get Shalina and tell her to get in here with us and that's it's urgent utmost" Brynjolf commanded.

Vex nodded her head and took a jog to go catch the dwemer woman.

Afterwhile, Vex returned with Shalina, who was drenched with sweat after a long archery practice with Sapphire.

"What's going on here? Vex said that I was needed at the utmost urgency?" Shalina questioned.

"Do you recognize the name of this city lass," as Brynjolf handed her the torn note and pointed towards the ripped name of the paper. She proceeded to look at it inquisitively before her face went white as snow. The rest the group grew quickly concerned as then Karliana asked, "Shalina what is it?"

"I recognize the name, It's Relthyz…. Blyztharm. I…" she pondered for awhile before deciding to reveal something about herself to them, "I..I grew up there…"

"I am so sorry Shay" Karliana followed after as the dwemer woman grew teary eyed and Karliana decided it be best to comfort the woman by giving her a good ol' hug. The dwemer woman hugged back and proceeded to cry, saying about how much she missed her people and most importantly, her parents. Shalina cried for awhile before Vex annunciated as softly and kindly as she could, " Could you potentially take us there? The people who killed Tonilia could be holding up there and you're the only one who knows the location of it."

Shalina slowly shook her head in a yes motion and calmly asked when they were to depart and who she was taking.

Brynjolf concluded that Both Orion and Brynjolf couldn't go together because someone needed to hold down the homefront, so they decided that the travelling party would be Karliana, Orion, and Shalina. Brynjolf told them that travelling light would be the best option as he eyed Orion, knowing that he wore Dragonborn armour.

"Well what the hell else am I supposed to wear?" he said.

A silence grew awkward before a voice spoke up, " Well, when I traveled to Morrowind, specifically Solstheim, I did pick up something I think called the DeathBrand Armour set"

Orion immediately turned to face Karliana as he grabbed her by both shoulders and said, "You're saying you. YOU. killed Haknir Death-brand? The incredibly brutal and vicious Pirate King ghost's of the Old?"

"Well yea…. I mean I am not as much of a rookie fighter as you think Ori, I know how to defend myself. Though I won't lie, his minions were quite a pain in the ass."

"Where do you have the armour now?" Orion said.

"It's at my house in the Reach, I became the Thane and was given the ability to purchase property after slaying some weird Cannibalistic cult of Namira and getting rid of the Forsworn King in Cidhna Mine."

"By the 8, Karliana, what have you been doing ever since I was imprisoned?" Orion sighed loudly.

"Well, isn't it Obvious, becoming better than the Dovahkiin himself." She teased and winked at him. In which the following words came after, "C'mon Ori, we need to head towards the reach now," and turned to Shalina, " if that's not a problem with you or the current plan?"

Shalina said that luckily the city was located on the borders near the Reach and that it wouldn't be any problem besides the problem of the Reachmen that is.

"Well, Let's get going then big guy" Karliana playfully teased.

Orion facepalmed and muttered to himself

"What am I going to do with her…"
