Night had fallen in Falkreath Hold. If she was smart, she would have headed to town and rented a room. No, she needed to get back to the Draugr. Dwiiroksil could keep them in line, but she liked to be there to help. She did control them after all.
As she walked, she had to watch her back. Nidhug and Alduin were both bound to know she was alive and would likely want to kill her. Alone like this, she could take one or two of Nidhug's lackies or a dragon. More than that, and she'd be toast.

Rather than going North or West as he usually did, Vokunulov decided to head towards Falkreath in the South. Something seemed to almost... call him towards the area, a familiar pull he had felt before. The old dov felt the same thing before, when he had encountered some of the other Dovahkiin so one must have been nearby. His bright eyes scanned the area below as he flew over. At first, he saw nothing.... he heard nothing... But he knew somebody was close by.
And that's when Vokunulov saw her. Even though the ancient dragon hadn't heard the her use a shout, there was still a whisper that could be heard by those trained to hear it. Vokunulov flew closer, then eventually hovered in front of the woman.
"Aam.... Drem Yol Lok, bron fahdon..." Vokunulov said as his powerful hind legs touched down on the ground before her. "Are you Dovahkiin?"

Sahruvaak jumped back, her Dragon Priest robes fluttering as she did. The armor the were attached too didn't weigh her down, so she was rather quick on her feet. Her weapon was out and she gave the dragon before her a harsh glare. "So what if I am? I'm sure he just sent you to kill me, dragon." She growled with venom.

Vokunulov chuckled at Sahruvaak's response to his sudden arrival, he had certainly gotten such a greeting a lot in recent days but it didn't surprise him. If he had been a mortal, Vokunulov knew he would have been surprised to see a dragon appear out of nowhere speaking an unfamiliar language.
"I am afraid that I do not know what you mean. No one has sent me, I sought you out on my own free will." Vokunulov told her, trying to look as non threatening as possible. "I am Vokunulov, Grandmaster of the Greybeards... We share a common enemy."

"Greybeards...?" She asked, relaxing a little. However, it didn't last long and she went back to her battle stance. "Prove it then! Prove that you weren't sent by Alduin."

"Aam.... I betrayed Alduin during the First Dragon War so I could protect the human, mer, and beast races. After surviving the War and escaping Alduin, I taught the mortals to use the Thu'um. Without my sacrifice, you would not be standing here, nor would anyone else... Krosis..." Vokunulov told her, finally touching down on the ground where there was room. "I can share my knowledge with you, if you desire, to further prove that I wish for Alduin's defeat."

Sahruvaak relaxed. He was a traitor too. Just like her. "Then we are not so different. I too betrayed Alduin. I was once part of that damn Children of Alduin cult. I tried to destroy them, but Nidhug survived." She said. Then she realized, through all the hostility, she never introduced herself. "My name is Sahruvaak. Phantom Raven in the mortal tongue. I am the decedent of Otar the Mad. State your name, so that I have something other than dragon to call you."

The old dov chuckled quietly when she demanded to know his name. Apparently, Sahruvaak couldn't remember when he mentioned his name several minutes prior.
"I have already stated my name, Sahruvaak.... My name is Vokunulov, in your tongue it means Shadow, Eternity, and Trust. Vokun-ul-ov," he told her again. "If you do not betray me, you can summon me if you need help and I shall come."

Sahruvaak blinked a couple of times, then remembered that he had in fact told her his name. "Huh. I guess I didn't notice that you had already said it. Oh well." She shrugged it off and continued on with life. "Having a dragon on my side might be useful. Fine, as long as you do not betray me, I shall not betray you. I shall inform my Draugr not to attack you if they see you."
