Quest get. Yay! A happy giddy feeling that makes you want to skip around and sing musical numbers fills you. You can practically feel the cheek aching smile that you'd be wearing if you actually had a face. It's an honest to god quest.
But before you can skip away and dispatch those pesky spiders you need more information. Like where to go and roughly how many spiders will inevitably swarm you. You shudder at the thought of the skittering, chittering things.
"We would love to be of assistance." You tell Freyja eagerly. "Can you tell what you know about these skulking spiders of Skyrim and how they got there? Were there any baby ones and is teleporting still a thing mysticism mages can do?" She smiles, it's a great smile sunny and warm.
"There haven't been any especially small spiders running around, but I saw bigger back when I lived in Helgen. But there were what looked like egg sacks in a couple of places, couldn't tell if they were empty or not though. You think someone might have been teleporting them into cellars as babies or something?" You nod, the thought had definitely crossed your mind.
"It would take a mage of some skill to perform such a feat." Morlia's hand strokes her chin thoughtfully. "Easily skilled enough to be a member of the Arcane University."
"But it is possible." You can't wait to get your gauntlets on that spell. So overpowered, such potential, so many ways to screw with people!
"Very possible but... I can't imagine why someone would do it." Morlia shakes her head. "Why would anyone put spiders in someone's cellar? Or in random caves?"
"No idea, maybe Sheogorath told them to." Freyja suggests, clearly joking. "If you want to help then I think the last report was of fresh webbing around Bloodcrust Cavern and Greyrock Cave. Druja just reported that her cellar's been infested as well." You and Morlia nod in unison.
It's mid afternoon or so. The two caves outside the city you might reach before night but clearing them and coming back will definitely take longer than that. Still, if you're quick there might be some evidence the guards have overlooked.
A shiver runs down your imaginary spine. You feel like someone's watching you. You crane your helm back and look at the sky. You wave jauntily for a moment before flipping the bird at a passing skylark.
"What was that?" Morlia asks at once.
"I think Sheogorath and some other deadra are watching us." You explain to her, no need to freak her out by telling her the Princes are watching. "Just a feeling and the various voices freaking out about it, you know." You shrug and flip off a fluffy cloud that vaguely resembles a daedroth. Then you start humming.
[ ] Where do you strike the eight legged menace? Or do you do something else?
[ ] Shenanigans? More Singing? Dancing?
Sorry for the late update, I was distracted by D&D. The next update will definitely not get right into combat, me and @Verminlord probably need to discuss dice and layout and how to do in combat voting a bit more than we have so far. So give me a bunch of stuff to work with people

) . Also, with luck, the staircase's position will only allow one spider at a time to come at us.
