Maybe from the time before the White Gold Concordant? If you found it among other Akaviri artifacts, it could either be a relic itself, or perhaps a Blade was was trying to get the relics out and fell before he could."</strong>Her own musing showing she was a scholar as well, if not in practice, than in spirit.<br/><br/>She looked from him to her own blade, sheathing the blade so the dungeons air didn't cause her to have to clean and oil the blade before she was ready, and then went back to wrapping it while listening to him.<strong>"I don't think the smiths of skyrim know how to forge these blades, to my knowledge, only Blades, can craft these weapons. Well the Akavir, but they aren't exactly social creatures, if the stories ring true."</strong>She said thoughtfully while never taking her eyes off her task of re-wrapping the blade, and then strapping t to her pack once again.<br/><br/>Looking up as he continued, she smiled at his comments about her showing hers first, though her expression became more serious as he said that he considered her a friend now.<strong>"I'm honored, and feel much same about you. At this moment I'm a little short on friends, and so that means a lot to me."</strong>Lucretia's serious expression slowly broke into another grin as she leaned back against the wall once more, her knees still resting beneath her.<br/><br/><strong>"Tell me if I'm presumptuous, but by the robes you wear I assume that you're a member of the College of Winterhold. What's that like? I've never been a member of one of the Magical Institutions, and have long been curious."</strong>She asked still grinning and leaning back against the wall, her dark eyes dancing with having this sort of conversation once more. It had been a long time since she'd been among the scholars of the Blades, and picking the brain of someone who had field experience was something she'd missed. Moreover it helped to forget about the dungeon walls, and she'd seen enough dungeons to feel truly trapped while in one.
