Laurent is in the process of roaming the Dayspring Canyon, gathering some materials in a circle around him. Doppio and Noire observe him from the fort, lazying around and tossing a rock of a sort at each other.
Then, Laurent uses a spell to teleport away to Riften. This confuses Doppio so much that he's struck by the rock in the face.
Laurent appears in Riften.

◊ approaches Laurent.
In spite of being dressed for the cold, Laurent may find the sheer unexpected drop in temperature and biting frost... debilitating.
"Aren't you cold?"
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Laurent does shiver a little, but keep his compsure. He doesn't know if the woman is evil or not, though at the very least, it'd be wise not to attempt to preemptively attack and force a conflict.
A little... though I've yet to determine the source of the cold. He says, snarking a little.

The woman struts off to a corner of the city, near the docks.
As Laurent does whatever he came to Riften to do, he may find that it gets increasingly colder, at an unyielding pace, without ever letting up. It's like a freak blizzard hit, but with less actual snow and more sheer cold.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."In the market at the center of town is a weapons stand that would be run by a merchant in any 'true' incarnation of Skyrim, but all the weapons are made of metal, so touching them in this freezing weather would likely be painful.

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.""What was that?" the woman asks smugly from her corner some distance away. "Could you come closer?"
If Laurent does approach, he will be able to see that the lake surrounding the docks near her has completely frozen over.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.""Hmhmhm... Then in that case, I will neutralize the bitter cold to you."
The woman approaches Laurent and attempts to kiss him, which will numb him to the cold entirely - and also numb his heart.
If successful, she will kiss him again before he has time to process and adjust, which will make him forget. Everything.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."He's surprised by her "attack", so much that he barely get to raise his tome before she kisses him, causing him to freeze in surprise, with an empty look in his face.
This leaves him vulnerable for the second kiss, though he briefly attempt to call out to his people and Lucina before he's frozen. After that, though, he's just... empty.

"Silly human... Laurent, is it? Was it? Your kind are always so impressive, yet so vulnerable to basic forms of deceit. You should really know better than to trust the Snow Queen."
The snow-column goes flying into the sky, seemingly taking them along with it, disappearing to a place unknown...
Fort Dawnguard
The hulking armored man, Kitten, is standing guard.
"... Does anyone else get the feeling that really bad things are happening that could easily be stopped if we knew they were going on?"

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Laurent doesn't say anything, staring ahead blankly as he's taken away.

Well, I don't know what bad things are happening elsewhere, but I know that there's one bad thing happening right now, and you can't prevent it ! YARGH ! says Gangrel, slapping down a full ace on the barrel.
NO ! Impossible ! says Takumi, tossing his cards away in annoyance. Gregor doesn't seems fazed, though he wince when he sees his own cards.
Gangrel laugh and get the tokens.

"I meant, like, people in danger. Real, actual, physical danger. The kind of danger where you could end up being a daemon's plaything if you don't tread carefully. Maybe we should check up on the scouts."

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Gangrel laugh and get up, with a whole bunch of cards falling out of his sleeves. Takumi and Gregor groans.
Is good idea... who was sent scout ?
Saizo was one. So he's bound to be safe.
What make you so certain about that ?
Ryoma picked him, so he's good.

Peri was playing cat and mouse with Cynthia but I think she was legitimately trying to attack her.
Laurent teleported somewhere, you can see it because there's a circle of... magic stuff.
Miss Oboro and Mr.Takumi sneak out to see e-
Let's investigate on Laurent immediately !

Awkeff returns the gesture. "You fought admirably as well, Bron Lokaliin."
After a moment, she drinks the potion, spreads her wings, and flies off.
