“Accidents?” Elenwen said warily. “Have you had many people die in this thing?”

“Oh no, hardly any,” Keirine said calmly. “Not once the testing phase was finished anyway, but you never know quite how it's going to work until you've tried it, do you? Now, everyone stay still and remain calm...” Keirine raised her hands, summoned magic, the gems and sigils glowed and purple light flashed all around them, hurtling them through space and time... and when they finally landed, it was immediately apparent this wasn't Hag's End.

“What is this?” Elenwen whispered, staring around at a blasted landscape, crumbling ruins, lightning flashing across a purple sky, and what looked like ghosts wandering around. Then a second later the cold hit her and she and her guards were sinking to their knees, life and magicka seeping out of them.

Keirine appeared completely unaffected, gesturing at the portal through which they'd come, which to Elenwen's horror, had sealed shut behind them. No way out, and when Keirine turned around, the illusions gone, Elenwen only just managed not to scream. She'd heard of Hagravens of course, but she'd never actually seen one, and the reality, ghoulishly lit up in obscene purple light, was as terrifying as she'd always been told.

“This is the Soul Cairn, Ambassador,” Keirine said, smirking. “Ever wondered where trapped souls go after you enchant with them? This is it.”

“Why...” Elenwen managed, finding it difficult to breathe. “Why bring us here?” But she knew, could see it in Keirine's gloating hag features, in those silver eyes just like her brother's. Keirine was making sure there was no more trouble for the Reach from her.

“Because your machinations broke my brother,” Keirine said, little growl at the back of her throat. “He has stayed clean without help since he got out of prison, and he was happy. He had everything he wanted. The Reach was free, he had children to dote on and a wife who loved him. And you brought her parents here, fed them tales of terror about our country and nearly destroyed him.” She leaned closed, lips pulled back in a snarl to reveal a maw full of jagged, pointy teeth that could rip flesh apart. “And still you won't desist. Still you interfere, accusing us of murdering Thalmor, trying to take little Ancalime away. Because a stable Forsworn kingdom is one of the greatest threats to the Thalmor in Skyrim, because a wealthy mountain fastness guarded by fierce warriors who can resist your magic and use it as well as you can is the last thing the Dominion want when they declare their second war.”

Which was true enough and obvious to anyone with a brain, and Elenwen realised they'd been right to fear the Reachmen. Hedge magic, heretical nonsense, mages from elsewhere had claimed that was all Reach-magic was... but Elenwen knew in that instant they'd not known the half of it.

“You won't get away with this,” Elenwen whispered, trying to summon her magicka to cast a fire spell but her strength was failing as this horrible realm drained her dry. “The Embassy will find out and that war could happen sooner than you wanted.”

“Perhaps,” Keirine shrugged. “But very convincing illusory versions of you and your guards will be leaving Hag's End half an hour from now, loudly complaining about us, be seen leaving the town, return to your Embassy where the illusory you will file a report stating there's no real evidence of wrongdoing despite what you'd hoped, and then the witches wearing the illusions will all port out back to Hag's End. Leaving a vanished Ambassador and none of it our problem. Meanwhile the Ideal Masters get your souls and we get a bit of peace from you people. I don't see a problem.”

Elenwen would have responded but she'd passed out by this point. Keirine just looked down and shrugged, before teleporting back to Hag's End to arrange the cover-up, making a mental note to thank Valerica from the bottom of her heart. Keirine trusted no promise the Ideal Masters made, but the Soul Cairn was the perfect place to hide bodies. Not that she made a habit of murder, not exactly. But even a Hag still loved her twin brother, and no one hurt Madanach and lived. No one.

A/N: Alas, poor Elenwen. She will be sorely missed, hem hem.

Next chapter may be the last, the fic is genuinely drawing to a close. Just the last few plot ends to resolve and a couple of epilogue-ey bits looking into the future. No more than two chapters at most. I will really miss this lot. Thank you for reading and commenting, I'm glad you're enjoying this!

Yummy! I hope we find out how things turn out for Sabrinda in the future. I kind of fell in love with her. Great writing as always and thank you for writing this.
