Briza was delighted when Valen accepted her offer, and of course the Bosmer knew how to word it just right. She extended her arm for him, and leaned against the mage with her hip brushing his. She knew the lovers stone often increased her sexual energies, so despite how intelligent the man obviously was, he was likely being distracted by that more then a bit. She didn't mind, though; she was just glad to have picked up a handsome date to drag her away from the assassin that lurked nearby. A light giggle escaped her lips as they began to venture through the door, but the shadowed movement of sovelis blocked their path.<br/><br/>Briza felt her body tense at his sight, and after another look over she placed his face. This was certainly someone she didn't want on her tail!<em>They sent HIM after me?</em>She questioned herself, the fingers of her free hand tensing for a ward spell if he chose to lunge forward. She wasn't sure it'd do any good from the rumors of his infamous blade, but she knew it'd even slow that down. The assassin's words surprised her, though; speaking about discussing a topic she studied back home in morrowind? Something was off; her specialty was daedric artifacts....<br/><br/>In fact, daedric artifacts were perhaps the only reason Briza knew what she did of Enchanting.<strong>"Sovelis? I didn't recognize you in such fine garb."</strong>She mentioned casually, though it would be obvious at this point she was wary of the mer.<strong>"If you want to talk about <em>that</em> then you'll have to request it from the Grand Conjurer. I'm already quite busy with a task from the college."</strong>She explained, now not so certain he was here to kill her. Even if he wasn't, however; it wouldn't take much convincing for him to want the job. She'd evaded her homeland's assassin for nearly fifty years now. She doubted they were taking it well.<br/><br/>Looking away form the dunmer now, Briza glanced back to Valen.<strong>"Though I believe my colleague and I had important matters to discuss. So tomorrow, maybe."</strong>She finished, and pulled Valen on out the door as Sovelis cleared the path.<em>By Azura's star, what is he doing here?</em>She wondered some more inwardly, but now they were outside; and the chill wind set across her scantily clad form. The Dark Elf felt a shiver run up her spine then, and did well not to keep her teeth from chattering. She looked to Valen again as they continued their path, now feeling bad for not cluing him him.<br/><br/><strong>"Apologies for the drama inside, Valen. As you can guess, that man's from my homeland. We weren't exactly allies back then."</strong>Briza explained what she was willing to, but her solemn expression quickly changed to a coyly lit smile.<strong>"I was serious about that lesson, though. Fear spells are but the beginning of Illusion, and as the former master instructor, I'd be happy to show you the more intricate uses that school of magic holds."</strong>She giggled at the end of the wording, and found her pink tongue trailing lightly over the edge of her lips before she looked up to the bridge that led to the college. Oh, this would not disappoint.
