Lines Spoken by This Houseguest:

  • "After watching you fight through that gauntlet in Murkmire, I thought Lady Twilight should take up the rapier. I bought one, but Seeks took it away. Now I practice jabbing things with my lockpicks."

  • "Did I ever tell you I found a piece of that Ayleid whatchawhoozit lodged in the seat of my britches after we delivered it? Hope the client didn't need it."

  • "Ever have a loose hair that's brushing up against your arm or whatever, but you can't find it? That's what it was like after you freed me from Eton Nir. Except they were everywhere. Still freaks me out whenever I walk into a spider's web."

  • "The guildmaster says I'm a diamond in the rough. Just need a little polish and I'll shine! Seeks says I'm more like a pebble in his shoe, but that's just his way of showing affection."

  • "I don't really miss the Green. Sure, I'd love to hear the spinners weave tales about me once I make it big as Lady Twilight, but Valenwood doesn't provide many opportunities for flashy heists."

  • "I haven't heard from Seeks since I got here. He said he'd come get me when I was needed, but it feels like I've been waiting forever! I'm beginning to feel unwanted."

  • "I heard Argonians are fond of juicy grubs, just like the Wood Elves. But Seeks and Walks-Softly both wrinkled their snouts at me when I offered them a handful. They were fresh, too."

  • "If you ask me, it's easier to break into rich folks' houses than poor folks. Palaces always have decorative walls and trellises to clamber up. Trying to quietly scale a mud hut? Impossible!"

  • "If you've got too many lockpicks, I think they make pretty good toothpicks. And hair pins. And fingernail cleaners -- when I've got nails. Maybe I should write a book."

  • "Maybe I should disguise my voice when I'm the Lady Twilight? I think it might add another layer of mystery and hide my identity. Oh, or I could even be Lord Twilight! Hmm, that doesn't have quite the same ring."

  • "Mind if I try picking your pocket? Seeks says I shouldn't ask that, but I'm four for five and that last one said I was sweet but she was married."

  • "Most people look down on small folk. Well, naturally, but I mean all judgie-like. To a thief though, tiny means it's easier to be overlooked and slip through the cracks. Most folk don't leave their valuables on the high shelves anyway."

  • "My partner, Seeks. He's always telling me not to bite my nails. He says long nails are useful for a thief, but I'm starting to think it just annoys him when I do that."

  • "Oh, don't mind me. Just having a look about. Making note of any valuables, number of doors and windows -- like Seeks taught me. Just for practice, honest!"

  • "Oooooh, good stretch! Creeping around is real murder on the back and knees. I thought going on all fours was easier, but Seeks hit me with a rolled up handbill until I stopped."

  • "Remember how Seeks joked about my itching? That it meant my skin was going to start sloughing off after that rescue from the spider ladies? Turns out, that does happen. But with the right antidote, it's just really refreshing for the complexion."

  • "Remember that time we rescued Seeks from Blackrose Prison? I make sure he does every chance I get. I think he's pretending not to hear now."

  • "Seeks once smuggled me onto a pirate ship in an orange barrel. Unfortunately, they loaded me on the bottom of the stack. Could have been worse. I didn't get scurvy and the citrus scent was pleasant enough -- for the first few days."

  • "Seeks-the-Dark can be a grumpy teacher, but there's no one I'd rather learn the trade from. He's not afraid to let me fail. I mean, he yells a lot, but I still get the experience."

  • "Technically, I'm still a probationary member of the Thieves Guild, but I'm sure the only reason I'm not a footpad yet is because they don't want to show any special treatment. Got to pay my dues like the rest. That's what the mentors always say."

  • "Those Blackguards were a nasty bunch. And I don't just mean they were mean. They all smelled like soggy armpits and netch farts. No wonder Seeks left."

  • "Want to do a little dicing? I need to practice palming the loaded ones between turns. What? I'll let you win some of the time."

  • "When it comes to locks, you really get what you pay for. Most of the time Seeks doesn't even pick the cheap ones. They just come apart if you know about the weak points."

  • "Why do so many hideouts have to be in sewers? I mean, I know most people's curiosity stops at the smell, but is that worth taking your meals in the city latrine?"

  • "Why is it that Mephala is always depicted as some seductive woman? I've seen what her kids look like and it ain't that."

  • "Wonder whatever happened to Teldundindo of Sunhold? Don't think I ever saw him after he ran off in the sewer under Borderwatch. Maybe he's still down there, listening to the echo of his own voice."

  • "Wonder why they call moving stolen goods fencing and laundering? That's too pedestrian for Lady Twilight. She should liquidate and polish ... maybe."

  • "You ever think about what you'd do if you didn't do what you do? I mean, I'm obviously going to forge my legend as the Lady Twilight, but if that wasn't so obviously my calling -- what then? Maybe I'd join the House of Reveries! I do like masks."

  • "You know, when Seeks first told me he was going to spy on the Painted Eyes, I thought he was talking about a trip to the bordello. I was a little disappointed. He could stand to loosen up a bit."
