A New Mother Figure

Fandom: Elder Scrolls Online

Pairing: None; Maternal-figure Caska and Aeliah Renmus.

Rating: K-T

Warning(s): Mentions of past pit fighting, consuming alcohol in a tavern, past loss of a parent, light hurt/comfort themes, etc.

Words: 1102

AN: I'm sorry but the millisecond I heard Caska refer to Aeliah as "little cub" I said "That's her baby. Aeliah is her baby now." And so I made this.

Slight spoilers for the Elsweyr DLC.

~~~~~~~~~~~

It was a relatively quiet afternoon at the Dragonguard Sanctum. There were no immediate dragon threats to deal with at the moment. This gave the crew of the Perfect Pounce a well deserved rest. Gods knew they needed it.

Za'ji, unsurprisingly, was spending his day off in the tavern area. He was loudly sharing tales of the crew's exploits and adventures (with varying degrees of exaggeration and inebriation). The raucous laughter could be heard from the docks, much to the irritance of Dirge Truptor.

Caska, on the other hand, was spending her day off in one of the lounge areas overlooking the cove, resting her body. As much as she didn't want to admit it yet, all those years in the fighting ring were starting to catch up to her. Despite being a Khajiit in her late thirties she definitely felt like a learned elder some days. Her joints would certainly beg to differ on rainy nights.

She let out a soft but heavy sigh as she rested her chin on a worn ottoman, tufted ears twitching as the disctinct sound of a grog bottle shattering rang throughout the abode. The Senche-raht simply shook her head- that was a problem for tomorrow's Caska. Not today. This was her day off, she reminded herself.

It was at that moment Caska confirmed her suspicions that she had heard the same footstep pattern about three times now in the last hour. A very familiar set of footsteps. And quite worried.

"If you keep pacing like that, Aeliah, you'll wear a hole in the boards."

The young lady in question nearly jumped out of her skin, staring wide-eyed at the massive Khajiit. She opened and closed her mouth a few times, but no words came out.

Caska raised an eyebrow, "How long have you been wandering like that, little cub?"

Aeliah looked confused a moment and started counting on her fingers. Then she shook her head, backtracked, and counted again. Caska was no stranger to this scene- Za'ji would do something similar when he didn't have a good excuse or lie to get himself out of a situation. We're going to be here a while, she thought to herself.

"What has got you bothered, Aeliah?" Caska questioned with genuine concern.

Aeliah was quiet a moment, then shrugged. "I'm not sure, truth be told. I guess a lot of things..." Her voice was heavy with exhaustion.

Caska raised her eyebrow again, ear tufts and tail twitching with curiosity.

"I guess..." Aeliah sighed. "I guess I'm just too tired to think straight right now..."

"Then you need to rest."

"I've tried, I can't. I feel like I have to be doing something to help, that-"

"Even though you are doing so much already?"

Aeliah sighed again. "I know, I know, my dad tells me the same thing all the time..."

Caska thought for a moment. "Perhaps it would help if you had someone keeping watch? Why don't you sit down for a bit?"

Aeliah stood there, still as a statue. After a few seconds, she quietly took off her extra gear and set it in the corner by the entrance to the balcony. As she made her way over, Caska could see the color in her face was not totally there; she looked more pale than usual. Seems there wasn't any exaggerating when she said she hadn't been sleeping well.

But then the young lady caught the Khajiit completely off guard: rather than pull up a chair or a cushion, Aeliah sat right next to Caska. Leaning directly against her. Using her furry friend as a giant pillow.

Caska's head jerked to look at Aeliah and she froze. That was not at all what she expected when she offered to keep watch. But, it seemed to be helping, as the exhausted young woman was physically relaxing against the big cat's shoulder. The tightness in her back was slowly releasing as she evened her breathing.

There was some surprised blinking on Caska's end. Physical affection was by no means her strong suit, so she felt rather awkward.

"Y'know, Caska..." Aeliah drawled, slightly slurring from sleepiness. "...you've, kind of become, like a mom to me... Ever since my mom died, it's like you've been a better mother than she was..." she yawned at the end.

The Senche-raht gave her a confused look. Her, Caska? A mother figure? To a human?

But something twinged in her heart. It felt like how someone would describe a "maternal instinct". But it felt so strange to her.

The last time Caska had feelings even remotely like this was nearly a decade ago, when she was still a gladiator in the pit fighting. She wasn't quite the champion rank yet, but very close. A spry young Imperial who looked just shy of his twenty-first winter approached her as she was training, and asked- no, insisted- he become her apprentice.

She had almost laughed at the suggestion, until she saw the look on his face. He was completely serious about his request. The Senche-raht was hesitant, no one had asked to be mentored by her before. Not to mention she simply preferred to be alone. But she looked into his eyes and saw a determined spirit.

Unfortunately it didn't take long before Caska discovered his weakness: he was overconfident to the point of cockiness. No opponent was too big or too tough. When the championship matches came around, that cockiness proved to be his downfall.

He didn't make it past the second round.

Caska shook her head to clear the painful memory, and instead tried to focus on Aeliah's current sleep-deprived rambling. She awkwardly interrupted, "Bright Moons, Aeliah, you really must be exhausted if you're saying that stuff!"

"Noooo, it's the truth!" Aeliah protested. "You've done so much f'r me... you've taught me so much, 'n you 'n Za'ji helped me when I was in trouble, back at the temple..."

"I remember, yes. But enough of that, you really should get some rest now, little cub. This one will-"

She was interrupted by soft snoring; the sweet embrace of sleep had finally gotten a hold on Aeliah. Mid sentence, no less. A very faint smile creased Caska's face. As carefully as she could, she adjusted her body so it was more wrapped around the sleeping young woman.

Caska rested her chin back on the ottoman from earlier, getting herself comfortable. She closed her eyes and listened to the sound of the waves hitting the coastline, as well as Aeliah's breathing.

For her newly appointed daughter, the big cat could tolerate being used as an oversized pillow.

30th of Hearthfire, Loredas

We were greeted at the dock by Senchal guards and given a royal escort to the palace.

Zamarak greeted me warmly with a hug when he saw me and I bumped foreheads. A bit more intimate that he was expecting, but he did not seem offended. I introduced half of the group before Captain Za'ji made his own introduction of him and the Dragonguard.

I spoke with Zamarak as we walked and he said that he had been so worried when Queen Khamira had gone on with Tharn and left him and the rest of the Queen's Claw without them. I told him that I kept an eye out over her and would not have seen any harm come to her whilst I still stood.

That calmed him little, though he said he was thankful to see she and I were both unharmed. He seemed to have settled well into his role and spoke of his pleasure with settling in with such an active ruler. I congratulated him on doing so well.

I made a point to ignore Prefect Callous, or whatever his name was, as much as was not obvious or rude. I could not believe that he had persisted in being with the royal entourage. I heard him boasting to one of the Redoran that they had been asked personally to escort the royal entourage.

Then I heard Er-Jaseen and Tel call out to Sir Cadwell. Now that was a face I had really not expected to see, but I managed few words with him, he was busy catching up with the others, I decided to take the time to greet Khamira.

After we had exchanged pleasantries, she asked me for a small favor. Since she was going to speak with General Renmus about the Elsweyr Confederacy, she wished to have me announce the deeds that were accomplished, both by Queen Khamira, and those accomplished by her uniting with the Shields of Senchal. She also wanted to bestow honors from her kingdom upon the Shields. All this she wished to have me take the place as her diplomat and handle the delicate negotiations. She said that there was no one else she would trust with such tricky matters and that she knew I would do all of us proud.

With such flattery and the Queen's favor at hand, how could I refuse. I gave a formal bow and accepted.

I went to the General's chambers while everyone else was still finishing their greetings of one another. I saw Tel look at me questioningly, but I gave them a sign to continue what they were doing. I could not have Tel ruin this if things did not go well.

I found the General in a less than pleasant mood as I entered his chambers. Even as he gave his thanks for the role that myself and my associates played in defeating the dragon threat, he made it clear he did not have much time for my presence, so I proceeded a bit more urgently.

I gave the Queen's offer and General Renmus started by trying to act as though Khamira had been angling all this to make them look as though they could not handle themselves, which, he assured me, they were perfectly capable of doing.

Not being one to give up so easily in the face of an important task, I complimented the Shields on their defenses and mentioned again that the Queen had been very impressed by their bravery and skill. I reiterated that honors that she wished to bestow upon them and that her aim was not to make light of their efforts, only to help. That it was alliance that had restored her crown and freed Anequina from their dragon threat, so she sought to do the same for her southern brethren. She had not wanted them to be caught unawares or left to the mercy of dragons, especially when the threat had come from her kingdom in the first place. She did not take responsibility lightly and only hoped to take the opportunity to help.

This soothed the general enough for me to get behind his guard. He was clearly very tired and stressed. And so as he started to open up more I used my birthgift to ask him to admit how he felt about the alliance, and if he would not give it a chance.

That was when he admitted that he and the Shields had been struggling, only getting by on luck and tenacity. And that was before the dragons came. That the alliance would, in truth, be very good for the people, though he had fears of what it meant for his position.

I assured him that the Queen only wished to support him and his people, not to take anything from him. It was to be a partnership. That if he would accept, they would work together to repair the damage the dragons had done and that the Dragonguard would see to the safety of the land from any lingering dragons.

He said that he was worried that if they turned their back on their allegiance to the Empire, then it would reflect poorly on their loyalty.

I told him it was a choice between his pride and his sense of duty. He could always return back to Cyrodiil and leave Senchal to the Khajiit. That Queen Khamira would not be trying to seize any power there and that the Mane dealt with matters of succession. Or, he could continue to serve the people of this land by joining with the Queen. The people needed the support of the Shields and would feel pride that they were not abandoned, but remained under the care of those who had protected them so far.

The General decided that it would be dishonorable to abandon the people of the land just because the Empire had withdrawn. And so he asked me to let the Queen know right away.

I bowed and went to take my leave when one of the Dragonguard entered and addressed him as father. I recalled then that they were related. That whole business right after my head injury. I will have to read back over these journal entries to make sure I have not forgotten anything important.

I gave the Queen the good news and a messenger came shortly after, summoning us all to the throne room. The General wished to have a ceremony for his support and joining of the Khajiiti Confederacy and the official signing. I could see the smug grin Khamira hid behind her hand and she signed a thank you to me.

We were brought to a side chamber as the throne room was prepared and I filled Tel and Er-Jaseen in on what had happened. I may have left out the bit about my birthgift, just in case it upset Tel. Er-Jaseen said she was glad it was me and not her that had to do the negotiation. I thanked her for her confidence.

When the time came, we all filed in. I could hear the crowd making remarks about the Dragonguard and Queen Khamira. It was better this way. My role has never been to be the one in the spotlight of these major events. My role is support. To aid the heroes. To save the nation. To be a tool for change.

We filed in and witnessed the signing of the alliance contracts and of the provisions that I am sure were drawn up by the Speaker of the Mane before Khamira even left Anequina. Once everything was in order, everyone made a procession to the square where the public could witness.

General Renmus, who by this point had had a couple of glasses of plum brandy, was in a very good mood indeed. He admitted to his daughter, loud enough for me to overhear, that they would be supplied in a way that the Empire never could manage and that they would be far better taken care of. I was glad that things were working out so amicably here.

Khamira waved us over. She was dressed in her regal attire, the one she complained about pinching so much when last she wore it. But she looked every part a queen and I knew that she wore it with pride in the square that day.

She had us all line up, having Er-Jaseen stand on her left side, with Sai Sahan on Er-Jaseen's other, and the rest of the Dragonguard going down. Then on the right, She had me stand, with Tel, and then the Redorans. I was touched that she still thought of me as closely as she had. But maybe it was because we had suffered the same loss.

She announced to the city that this was the group who had fought to save Senchal. As promised, she gave honors to the Shields of Senchal for playing a part and for the Dragonguard as well. She thanked all who had fought directly in the fight against Kaalgrontiid.

Then she gave a touching memorial for Tharn. That was the hardest part of it all, honestly. I could hear her holding back, knowing that her word choice was so carefully picked. That she quoted some of what he used to say. I wanted to reach out to her to give her comfort and support, but we could not smirch her image so. She had to be the strong and independent queen that she was.

She then thanked Er-Jaseen and Sai Sahan for all they had done to gather the Dragonguard and keep everyone safe, fighting valiantly. And finally, she thanked me for sticking with her from start to finish. I think she used the word steadfast and loyal at least twice. I did not deserve all the praise she lofted upon me.

When she had thanked everyone once more and had a great cheer, we were invited back for a celebration in the palace.

I ate and drank and wished Khamira very well. Then was all too happy to get away from people for a while. I will seek out Tel before bed. I know that I left them talking to Sai Sahan about his worries for some of the Dragonguard's behavior.
