Meridia + Sanguine + Azura: "Something Amiss" 1/2
Date: 2013-08-04 02:54 am (UTC)“Azura? It's happening again.”
Unfortunately, none of the others ever seemed to give her the peace she wanted. Azura opened one eye to find Sanguine at her side, an eternally full mug of strong ale in his hand and an exasperated look on his face. She sighed, gazing at him dolefully.
“What is happening again?” she asked him, in the most patient voice she could muster. Sanguine raised a hand, allowing an image to warp into clarity in front of them. “Ah. I see.”
A mortal man, Nordic from the look of him, lay motionless across the steps of Meridia's shrine. Two more men stood above him, staring down as they spoke.
“And you say he just...fell out of the sky?” one was asking. The other nodded sharply, throwing his hands into the air.
“I'm not lying, I promise! I saw him drop out of the clouds!”
“Huh. It's a shame we can't ask the poor bastard what happened.” With that, the two retreated, the witness muttering about leaving Skyrim for good, and Sanguine let the image fade.
“Damn it all,” Azura murmured, shaking her head. “The poor mortal is the twenty-second Meridia's killed this month. That's more than Dagon, and he's doing it on purpose!”
“Well, nobody's explained to her how mortal physiology works,” her companion replied, shrugging. “I know it well, myself, but I didn't want to break the news. It was pretty funny, for a while.” Azura looked down at him, wincing.
“And has anyone else made an effort?”
“'Course not. I asked around. Mephala laughed at me, Peryite went on about how it's not his problem, and Mora threatened to send his Lurkers into my realm if I didn't leave him alone. Don't even get me started on what Sheogorath did.” He leaned back, looking hopefully up at his fellow Daedra. “You're the reliable one. We all know how much you love mortals--”
“You really ought to keep your mouth closed about my affairs, if you want to continue having lips,” Azura interrupted, frustrated. “I sense Meridia's presence above her shrine. Let's go speak with her.” Sanguine raised an eyebrow, holding up his hands in protest.
“Me too?! I told you, I'm not--” Before he could continue, he felt the air warp around them, and he was suddenly suspended somewhere in the stratosphere. Below him, he could see the outstretched arms of Meridia's statue. Somewhere to his distant left, he could see the Daedra herself, materialized as a glowing orb. He personally preferred her manifestation as a lanky, blonde woman, but he supposed he could work with it. At the moment, she had yet another mortal suspended in midair, and was venting her problem for the twenty-third time that month.
“Guide my light through the temple, and destroy the defiler!” she ordered the man, who was currently trying his best to keep from trembling.
“I'll do as you ask.”
“Good. Now, go!” The unwitting servant instantly began his plummet towards the ground, only to be stopped once again by Azura's hand.
“I'm sorry, little mortal,” she sighed, lowering him gently to the ground. “I'm afraid Meridia is a bit distressed. You are safe now. Go and find Dawnbreaker, if you wish.” The adventurer nodded, his eyes a bit glassy in bewilderment, and nearly tripped over his own feet in his hurry to get away from the insanity. Azura, on the other hand, moved to join Meridia, who had manifested into the woman Sanguine knew and loved.
“I've warned you about meddling in my affairs, Azura,” Meridia complained, her hands on her hips. “Just because you harbor a desire for mortals--”
“Have you been listening to Sanguine as well?” Azura shot a look over her shoulder at the Daedra in question, who responded with what he thought was a charming smile. “Never mind him. We need to have a talk, Meridia.”
Op :D

Date: 2013-08-10 09:08 pm (UTC)“I agree entirely,” Meridia replied irritably. “Just knowing that he's in there, practicing his disgusting arts with Dawnbreaker in the same room...can't you two sense him as well?” Sanguine, for his part, couldn't, but a warning look from Azura told him to nod politely.
“We also get that you need another mortal to...y'know, get him out of there,” he continued. “But here's the thing about mortals, Meridia. They're...well, they're mortal. They have bones and organs and a lot of parts that can break and squish.” When Meridia leveled him with a deadpan look, he cleared his throat and gestured down at the broken man beneath them. “They also tend to die when you drop them out of the sky onto rocks. So you probably shouldn't do that.” Now the woman's eyes widened in understanding, and she squinted down at the corpse.
“Mortals are ridiculous,” she complained now. “So frail. If I were to drop Vaermina from this height, she likely wouldn't even feel it!”
“You probably shouldn't try it, though,” Sanguine replied, shaking his head. “Do you get it now, at least? It's not that you're being ignored...” Meridia laughed lightly now, tossing her head back.
“Of course not. No mortal can ignore the will of Meridia. It's just that my blade is still trapped! All of my would-be champions are simply not surviving the journey down!” Sanguine rolled his eyes, and Azura smiled nervously.
“That's correct. If you need Dawnbreaker back, you can certainly convince a mortal to take on the task for you, but...please, for all of our sakes, make sure you keep control of him until he makes it to the ground. We can't have more mortals dying, or the survivors getting too curious about why bodies are falling from the sky.”
“Yeah, and none of us want to deal with your bad mood if you mess up again,” Sanguine chimed in. Meridia glared at him now, shaking her head firmly.
“I do not 'mess up,' Sanguine. I didn't understand, that's all. I won't make the mistake again, I assure you both,” she announced. Azura heaved a sigh of relief.
“Thank you. And, while we're on the topic, please don't start lifting mammoths into the sky simply out of curiosity. We all know you're capable.” This time, Meridia looked over her shoulder with a tinge of amusement.
“I'm afraid I can't promise you that, Azura. Oh!” She looked back down again, brightening at the sight of a twenty-fourth would-be champion. “You can watch me this time, to make sure I do it right.” She morphed back into her ray of light, and her voice boomed from all around them. “Look at my temple, lying in ruins! So much for the constancy of mortals, their crafts and their hearts...”
“While we're on the topic, should we go let Namira know how her ring is working out for the mortals?” Sanguine murmured as he watched. Azura grimaced, shaking her head firmly.
“I've had enough of you all to last another century or two."
OP :D
Date: 2013-08-11 02:59 pm (UTC)This is going to be my new headcanon when I have to toggle god mode on to finish this quest again :D
I love Sanguine's irreverence and Azura's temper :)
And you mentioned the mammoths! You are amazing and fantastic and thank you so much!
