By noon, Megohime had regained consciousness and had checked to see what was left; nothing. Well, the only things left were Masamune's swords which had been stuck under her dead horse, and with the arrow through her side, she couldn't pull them out from under the carcass, so she simply didn't. Fuming silently at her loss of income, she snapped the head of the arrow off, grinding her teeth in pain, trying to pull it out, but it was stuck. She needed someone else's help, but she couldn't go back to Riften and she was a long way from Windhelm. That's when she saw two figures on horseback round the bend a ways down the path, perking and waiting for them to draw closer, but much to her horror, one of them was he last person she ever wanted to see. Masamune.
