Return of the Septim Dynasty II

Tanan in his Thieves Guild Armor

In a tavern in Stros M'kai, Tanan was playing cards and cheating. Stros M'kai had just recently been conquered by the Forebears, though that didn't interfere with Tanan's life at all. He was thrown out from the tavern, after being caught cheating, and saw an airship falling out of the sky in the distance. Think that it could be something interesting he went to check it out. He watched from the ridge seeing what was happening, unsure whether to get involved or not. He spotted the crashed airship and saw a Khajiit with a couple Redguard soldiers searching it. Tanan walked towards the Khajiit and greeted him. The Khajiit warned him to stay back, so as to not interfering with official business, as the soldiers drew their swords. Tanan told them to relax, and asked if there was something he could do to help. The Khajiit asked him to tell him about the Argonian maid and the lusty baron, attempting to make fun of the Argonian. Tanan ignored him and a Redguard then told him to help them check the wreck of the airship for a Sload. Tanan introduced himself to them. The Khajiit told the con artist that he was going to keep an eye on him, obviously not trusting him. The Redguard asked Tanan to help him move a large rock. Tanan asked some questions and the Redguard soldier answered them, they were mostly about the situation surrounding the crash. They lifted the rock and spotted the Sload under it. The three other soldiers dragged the Sload from under the rock, and then the Redguard and Tanan put it down. The Khajiit just stood there watching the Argonian, making sure he didn't try anything. The Redguard with Tanan, an officer, ordered his soldiers to take the Sload to the dungeon, as their King wanted to have a word with the creature after he spoke with a Nelthar ambassador.

When the soldiers went to bring the Sload back to the Keep and imprison him in the dungeon Tanan went with them. Along the way he got acquainted with the Redguard officer, Achel, and the Khajiit, Jo'Khar. Achel and his men managed to put the Sload into a large cell. He then asked that someone notify their King, while the rest remained behind to guard the Sload. Jo'Khar left to inform the king of the news. Tanan waited with Achel and the other soldiers for the Khajiit to return with the king. Sometime later three people entered the dungeon, Jo'Khar, the Redguard king and a Breton. The three of them then made their way to the cell. The Sload asked how long they think they can keep him locked up. The king introduced himself as King Bodean of the Forebears to the Sload and asked what he was helping the Crowns with. The Sload introduced himself as a diplomat and complained about his airship. Bodean asked what he would do if he was set free. The Sload said he would return to Thras and never bother the Forebears. Jo'Khar told them to wait, and said that he heard stories of the Sloads spreading something known as the 'Thrassian Plague'. He said that maybe they could use this information to blackmail the enemy into surrendering key territories. He mentioned that not even the Nelthars could possibly ignore such a deadly disease. But Bodean ignored the Khajiit, as he seemed to disagreed. Bodean decided it was too much of a hassle to keep the Sload locked up and had Achel release him.
