Meeting Ozai Teri-Ahk

**Story Arcs**

###### **SEEKING THE LEADER OF JASKIR**

Ashes approaches **Lawretta Stowen**'s manor found in the Noble's District of **Jaskir**, but as he approaches he notices what seems to be a conversation between a dragonborn who looks like he's having difficulty speaking to the person on the opposite side of the door, who has it latched closed.

As he approaches he overhears an argument which eventually ends with the door being closed shut on the dragonborn, who gets incredibly frustrated and starts knocking furiously against the door to let him in, eventually giving up and sitting down on the porch to either wait out his options or to wait until he gets another chance to come inside.

Ashes approaches the dragonborn and strikes up a conversation with him, and he learns the name of the young, bulky and tall dragonborn known as **Ozai Teri-Ahk** and his mission to speak to the "leader of Jaskir" to find more information about his "target". Ashes shares some of his personal flair of Lathanderian wisdom to the dragonborn with a strange accent, who takes it with zero response.

###### **STRANGE LOCKDOWN**

Ashes knocks on the door with a calm beat, and it swings open after a few seconds of shuffling to reveal a human male servant who speaks from a seemingly double locked door; set with a lock and interior chain latch. He asks who is speaking, and Ashes identifies himself to him, and asks him if he could talk with the mayor about the book.

The servant leaves in a hurry to speak to the mayor, and comes back inside to unlatch the door and allow Ashes inside. Ozai see's a chance to come inside and before the door gets latched closed once more, he barges in and demands to speak with the mayor.

The human servant, unable to physically stop and remove him from the premices is forced to comply and asks another servant to guide Ashes towards the mayor while he keeps an eye on the dragonborn. She obliges and takes Ashes silently to her. Ozai begins to slowly pace around the room impatiently while Ashes speaks with the mayor, Lawretta Stowen.

###### **TOME OF THE MISSING GOLD STAR**

Ashes is led inside the room with the mayor, who he see's sits with a pained and frustrated, almost angry look to her face before collecting a bit of her composure back to speak with her guest.

Lawretta explains the situation rather briefly, the book that she was trying to decipher was stolen and she has no leads whatsoever. She has her guards looking for suspiscious people but without any evidence she has nothing.

Ashes asks her if she knows about the man known as **Draven Barlow**, and she replies with a yes. She hired the man to go with the party that was ultimately almost completely wiped out at the Ruined Church of Oghma, and had only last seem him when he came to collect his final payment for the failed mission.

Ashes describes some features to compare information with her about him, and find out that he had apparantely not owned a with a feathered beret with a golden quill. Lawretta takes particular note of this, and thinks to herself. She asks Ashes if he could assist her in finding out anything he can about Draven Barlow. Ashes asks her in return if she reconsidered allowing Smitty Jaskir back into the city, but she sighs and says no; but will on the condition that Ashes helps her put an end to Draven and this madness.

Ashes accepts, and after a moment she scrawls something on a gold rimmed and ornate looking piece of official parchment, then rolls it up and ties it off with some ornate looking blue fabric. She tells Ashes that this is a pardon from her personally (basically a get out of jail free card) that he can give to the guards to look the other way, and perhaps even assist him with his mission at hand. Ashes begrudgingly accepts the scroll, despite not liking the implication that he would have to commit crimes to find this man.

That being everything, Ashes takes his leave and is led back to the dining room entrance of the manor.

###### **MEETING THE LEADER OF JASKIR**

As Ashes returns through the double doors that lead into the dining area, he see's the pacing about dragonborn and servant following suit, but as he see's the goliath return he comes to greet him and asks if he would like any food before he departs. Ashes welcomes a free meal, and accepts; sitting down at the ostentatious cedar dining table.

Before the male servant heads off, he tells the other servant to lead him towards the mayor. She does, and begins to head off attempting to lead Ozai the dragonborn towards the mayors office, not before giving Ashes a distinct look of distaste and muttering a few words before following the woman.

Ozai is led through the dining room double doors down into the library area which leads further down towards a kitchen straight ahead, and two doors off to the right; both closed.

Ozai follows the woman who leads him towards the futher of the two doors on the right which leads into a grand gallery and display, featuring beautifually drawn portraits of what could only be assumed to be leaders of past and present, as well as suits of armors and weapons.

She leads him down the end and towards the next room, which goes down to a hallway which has a wonderfully crafted red rug laid on a straight path towards a closed but sturdy wood and metal door. The hallway has more art and some bookshelves, as well as a few chairs and tables.

Ozai is led further towards the door of the mayors office, and is led inside. She closes the door softly, and Ozai looks towards the female figure of the mayor of Jaskir, something he wasn't expecting since he thought the leader might have been a male. She bears a look of burden on her face and welcomes the dragonborn to take a seat so they can speak.

She identifies herself as Lawretta Stowen, and asks for his name to which Ozai Teri-Ahk gives. She asks why he came here to speak, and Ozai explains his situation regarding his family, and his target. During his conversation, he recalls some of his memory and remembers that the man or men that he is after have these identifying features.

The mans name begins with a C. There is a "de" somewhere in the middle of their name. The man has a scar on his left leg and walks with a limp. There is that vivid image of a blue goose crest or sigil that was on the backpack of somebody.

Ozai asks about a blue crest with a goose on it, and Lawretta replies by saying that it could potentially be a person by the name of "Bhed Settir", but does not divuldge more information for fear that this large and potentially dangerous dragonborn could start running amok and killing her citizens.

She demands for him to take on a task for her to divuldge more information to him; but he scoffs and storms off. He got more than enough information, a name.
