Before the events of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim start, Nalani and Taylani are seen moseying about in their respective areas. Taylani is found toying away in the Thalmor Embassy, wanting to explore the province. First Emissary Elenwen decides to give her a chance to leave the Embassy on her own to start her first mission to root out Talos worshipers. It’s Sundas afternoon at the beginning of the story, and Taylani is bored and needing something to do. She bothers the various guards, Brelas, Malborn, Razelan, both bards Illdi and Grete, and the cook Tsavani before Rulindil intervenes on everyone’s behalf to walk her down to the Solar to speak to Elenwen. She’s concerned that she’s in trouble now, considering her last mishap that left Elenwen furious for weeks. She’s surprised that, finally, Elenwen wants to get rid of her and send her off on her own for a few days for a simple mission. She’s to be sent to the far reaches of Skyrim to infiltrate a Talos-worshipping den. Taylani is excited and begins to rush out of Elenwen’s office before being scolded. She prepares that night for her journey ahead.
