Jared watched the battle unfold. A dead woman, soon to be dead guards, and eventually a dead Nord. Shooting one arrow did this. Jared stayed perched on the ledge. His hands were shaking. Finally he realized it and tried to stop them, but he couldn't. Jared felt guilty for the woman's death. He had caused a death this time. It was his fault. And that made him a murderer. Then he saw Zyle, the redguard, jump into the battle. It was quiet above all the battle cries and sword clashing against armor. People were shrunk up against the walls, quiet and sullen eyed. They held their children close, blocking their eyes, holding them away from the bloodshed. They were shaking too, he realized after closely studying some of them. No one knows it was me, so I shouldn't worry, Jared thought leaping down from the ledge. He instinctively rolled, relieving pressure off his feet. He quickly regained his composure and walked over to the dunmer and Lucius. I wonder why they aren't helping the redguard, Jared thought, watching for the outcome of the battle.
