Loqi: *sitting leaned back in a chair in the Winking Skeever, totally unbothered by the High Elf in front of her*
Caryalind: So, er.. I suppose what I'm saying is I won't harm you, or your friends downstairs. Or set anyone on them.
Loqi: *raises an eyebrow* You do realize no matter what side you're on, the words 'I won't harm you' are always suspicious, right? Especially if you've thus given no reason for me to assume you would harm us.
Caryalind: I.. Do you- Do you not know-
Loqi: I know full well who you are, Thallery. No offence, but on your own you probably wouldn't even be able to take out Lucien without some crazy planning. I've trained him too well for that. And you would find my axe at your throat before you could even send word to any of your Thalmor friends.
Caryalind: Oh- Er..
Loqi: And- *sits straight, shrugging casually* Since we're apparently being honest with our identities for some reason- a horriblly naive decision on your end, really- I suppose I'll be honest too. *she holds her hand out for Caryalind to shake*
Caryalind: ...? *shakes her hand*
Loqi: I assume you called me here to offer your aid without knowing who I truly am, so I'll be nice and give you the answer for free. My name is Loqi Stormcloak. Dragonborn, heir apparent, among other things. Whatever floats your boat, to be honest.
Caryalind: Oh..! It's nice to meet you, er..
Loqi: ...
Caryalind: ... STORMCLOAK!?
Loqi: There it is. Please be quiet, I'd rather not be ratted out in the middle of the Imperial capital of Skyrim.
Caryalind: Why did you even agree to meet me?! Do you know what the Thalmor will do to you if they find out I've met with the- the daughter?? Of Ulfric Stormcloak?!
Loqi: I imagine they would attempt to torture me in a similar manner to how they tortured my friend and my father. What do you think the Thalmor will do to you if they find out you've been speaking to the child of a rebellion leader?
Caryalind: ...
Loqi: This goes both ways, buttercup. We're both screwed no matter what, according to you. If you've the balls to still offer your help, knowing what we know about each other, then get up and let's go. I'd rather not stay in Solitude any longer than I have to.
Caryalind: R-Right..
