-I see... Fascinating. It is the first time I've ever seen on in Skyrim, she said, sheathing her sword back. She patted the beast on its side, before walking back to the dragon. Well then... farewell. Try and stay away from chaurus nests in the future.
She climbed back with Widow onto Odahviing's back:
-Thanks, friends. Sorry to keep you waiting... let us be on our way. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 stones into Acrobatics to get back on Odahviing's back;
2 stones into Dragon Riding to... y'know, ride the dragon, lol.

As you leave Widow looks at you. "Are you sure we should just leave it... If it's not native to this land, there's a chance it's dimensionally displaced like me."
Odahviig takes to the air as Mamoswine just watches you sniffing the air around it, it starts to wander off.

The Dragonborn paused, looking at Widow.
-What do you suggest?... I do not mind bringing it with us, but I cannot use my Shout to carry a living, 8 feet tall mammoth, nor can I just hold it along for the ride. And if I ask Odahviing to carry it with his legs, the poor creature will possibly die from fear. So unless we have a magical mammoth-transporting artefact..., she said with an amused smile.

"I see." Widow says.
"I do not think it matters Dovahkiin." Odahviig says. "It seems to be following your scent towards Wundsted Manor." (That house north of Morthal you can build. However it's spelled.)

-Vahzah, Odahviing... That would make sense. Seems like it took a liking to me for coming to his aid. Very well... We continue on our way to Castle Volkihar... we get the Black Soul Gems... then we find the souls to fill them with, and after that, we stop at Morthal, where we will escort the Mamoswine to Winterhold on foot, or if at all possible, in a carriage. It didn't seem too heavy... I'm sure an extra gemstone or two will convince a driver to let us bring it along.
She folded her arms, nodding:
-With a bit of luck, we can send him to your world along with you, Widow. If there are others of its kind there, it will be happier than here.

"I guess that's for the best." Widow says. "Lets get going them."
Within minutes you arrive at Castle Volkihar... Still the same looking scary fortress of death and doom you remembered.

-Home, sweet home, Anaya said with a sly grin, as she got off the dragon's back, turning to help Widow off as well. It might not be too long, but I'm not quite sure, Odahviing. I will call you once we are done so you do not have to wait here the whole time.
She then began walking towards the castle.
-Please follow me. I'm fairly sure we had a couple of Black Soul gems just laying around. Otherwise, we might be able to buy a few with some luck.

You walk into the castle. It's been cleaned up a bit since Harkon's disposal.
"You know dear, you really shouldn't show up at our lovely hone with another woman at your side. It might send your dear wife, the wrong message." A sultry voice echos throughout the halls.

Anaya Rosethorne
-Worry not, my beloved, the vampire answered back in what seemed a whisper (although it was magically reaching the deepest walls of the Castle to bring the answer across to the beautiful vampire), with a smile at the thought of seeing Serana again, despite how little few days had passed since they last were together, my thoughts, my dreams, my feelings and my destiny all bring me back to your embrace and yours alone, now and forever.
She looked at Black Widow;
-Her name is Serana... she is my soulmate, and my dearest companion. She is the one for whom I fight and to whom I return whenever my duties allow me, unless of course she accompanies me.
Then she resumed speaking to Serana through the same strange whisper-speech:
-Will you join us, Serana? I would like to introduce my beauteous wife to our guest. Also... I would like to set my eyes upon you and hold you in my arms. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 10 stones into Magic (Illusion), plus 2 from Dragonforce; 3 for the effect of projecting my voice, 2 so only Serana hears it, 8 for the Area to be sure to reach her.

You hear the faint slap of soft bare soles against the cold stone of the castle floors. You see your wife emerge from the shadows nearby, her normal vampire armor replaced with a simple black robe/gown from a far off island beyond Tamriel. "Hello my love, it has been far too long." She says strolling into your embrace.

-It's always far too long, my princess of the Night, the light brown-haired woman agreed. While Eternity is not enough time to spend by your side, a minute away from you is eons to my mind. Might I add... you look especially gorgeous, she said with a charming smile. She kissed her lovingly, wrapping her arms around her as she enjoyed her touch and the smell of her hair.
After a moment, she let go of her and took a step back, introducing the two more officially.
-Black Widow, this is Serana, my wife, and the Princess of Castle Volkihar. My love... this lady is Black Widow, a woman out of her own world due to the dark magic of an evil god named Loki, whom we defeated.
She allowed the two to react, then started explaining:
-I am trying to get my hands on the spell components of a ritual which should allow us to send her back.

"Of course hon. What do you need dear? Why don't you slip into something more comfortable for the time being, after all you are both safe here." She says leading you both into the main hall of the castle.

-Why not indeed, nodded the Dragonborn before using her Carry Gear Shout again, altering her clothes as follows: the Vampire armor was replaced by a majestic, yet quite alluring black kimono-gown with golden patterns representing glyphs, arcane symbols and Dragon Tongue words; her slippers were replaced with two elegant three inches high heels, and her gloves simply vanished.
-There, much better, she said before answering Serana's question: I still need two Black Soul Gems... and then, four souls to fit those two and two I already have. I was planning to perhaps pay a visit to another group of bandits in order to acquire them. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 stones (Ef.) into Dragon Shout (Carry Gear) plus 2 from Dragonforce, to send away my Vampire armor, my slippers and my gloves, replacing them with a kimono-gown and high heels as described above.

Serana smiles. "Much better, though I so wish you wouldn't wear shoes in our castle, what's the point of me sweeping these floors every day, if you don't take the time to enjoy them?"
"Wait, you actually like walking barefoot here?" Widow asks kneeling down, and putting an ungloved hand on the stone. "I've seen snowbanks in Russia that weren't as frostbite inducing."
"My dear friend. We are Nords, and Vampires. Our concept of what is cold differs far from other denizens of Tamriel." Serana explains.

-So be it, said Anaya with a little laugh as she removed the pumps, leaving them at the entrance of the Castle. Although I still think you should leave tasks such as sweeping the floor to Ronthil, he'd be most happy to do it for you.
She did not push the idea further, Serana being well aware that she was happy as long as her wife was happy, and that she didn't really mind about it.
-'Tis true, though. I used to be bathing in the freezing waters north of Dawnstar even before I became a vampire. It was... reinvigorating.
