A good few days...

The two of you drift off to sleep, uncomfortably yes, but it didn't matter, you both felt some sense of security when you were together...

The next few days you had both dedicated to making the place suitable for two people, the two of you scoured Skingrad for cleaning things, both for home and for Ulannas house, Nacius managed to find a deal on wool for the bed you two wanted to make, even though he'd managed to get it for a deal, it was still extremely expensive, but the two of you didn't care. As the days went on, you spent more time on your leg, eventually it was feeling good enough for you to ditch the cane entirely though sometimes you'd walk with a limp on "bad days", but you didn't care, you were more than happy to use the damned thing as firewood!

Every night Nacius would make something new for dinner, teaching you all the basics of cooking, one night you grew confident enough to surprise him by making dinner, in your opinion it wasn't as good as anything he'd made but he seemed to enjoy it all the same. When the opportunity arose, Nacius taught you how to defend yourself, he volunteered himself as a practice dummy, one "training session" you ended up giving him a black eye by accident, but the big brute shrugged it off and gave you a thumbs up.

Ulanna stopped by to visit every now and then, she even helped the two of you when you were sanding lumber for the bed and chair you both needed. The two of you had enough leftover lumber to build a small pen for Whiterun for when Nacius went to get him back...

A week and a half has gone by... you and Nacius seemed to be in good health once again, the small house wasn't looking like an abandoned shack anymore...

The two of you are growing increasingly antsy however... Nacius is going to have to get back to work soon... something that you don't find yourself mentally prepared for...
