First things first, figure when and where you are. "Year, date and location please?"
"Don't you already know?" The elf says, nose in the air imperiously. You sigh, it reminds you more of rocks grating against each other than crystals doing the same.
"Look lady." She bristles at that. "Best I... we can explain is that we... I am experiencing a Dragonbreak. I... we just need to make sure what date it is." God this is confusing. Better settle on either we or I at some point. The woman frowns at you, mouthing what you just said to her back and frowning even deeper than before.
Her face goes white-er and she starts repeating Dragonbreak over and over. "N-No... no that's a lie, impossible." She whispers finally, utterly horrified.
"If you prefer then I have an a-temporal perspective on matters." You're pretty sure that's not actually better than 'dragonbreak in my head' but it's a bit easier to swallow...maybe? "Some time from now, the thalmor will have attempted what is tantamount to deicide for no other reason than the existence of a human god rankles their pride." Distraction powers activate!
"I... I don't believe you, you're just a crazy daedra or golem or something!" She shakes her head furiously, whipping her pale blonde hair back and forth like crazy. "A-Anyway, it's fifteenth of Sun's Height in the four hundred and thirty second year of the third era. Since you asked politely."
"Right, so tell me more about this dark brotherhood business. 'Cause, you know, summoning an Order Deadra to combat Chaos Cultists is a good plan in theory, not so effective in practice. Sithis is about an infinity of orders of magnitudes above the Prince of Order, when he isn't the Prince of Madness, and you don't seem to be the type to advocate genocide. Which is still better than the Thalmor, the omnicidal little emo dirtbags." Well you say 'Order Daedra' and you're certain that they're in here somewhere but you don't feel particularly... ordered. The woman doesn't seem to have registered much, if anything, past you asking her about the assassins.
"They murdered my family!" She sort of wilts and deflates after she shouts that at you. "My father, my mother and my brothers and t-they only left me alone b-because I-I-I...." She starts sobbing into her hands and her knees buckle under her.
