Of course, I did not move quietly enough - So I ran.

If I stepped quietly, they could not detect me. Their pale bodies indicated they must live in these murky depths. They were twisted beings with Human-like limbs and Elven ears but their eyes were forced shut by an overgrowth of skin. However, these beings were not Human, nor Elf, no Orc. Then I walked straight into a trap that was clearly designed by intelligent beings. No sign of life but the glowing fungus that made its home on the cavern walls. There were manmade elements surrounding the entrance, so I thought perhaps I should give it a look while I was here. It appeared I had taken a wrong path as the cobblestone road before me slowly transformed into a dirt path, leading me up to a cave. It was a wedding, after all, no reason to make the bride of all people suffer by denying her a precious gift. Something in my wanted to take those expensive gifts from them to show them to watch their tongues, but I withheld my urges this time. I merely greeted them as I passed them and they called me a peasant and not to bother them. On the way, I ran into some rather stand-offish nobles on their way to a wedding. I wondered if I should continue the journey alone or seek help as I had lost my last partner - not to replace her, of course, but I was unsure of the treacheries ahead.

I picked up a few more spell books from the court mage in Dragonsreach and set out to speak with the Greybeards this morning.
