Solitude is the largest city in all of Skyrim, and host to the High Queen of Skyrim. This is also the center of the Empire's non-violent operations in Skyrim. It also hosts the Bard's Guild, who sometimes hold festivals. The Blue palace is the keep.

When they got close enough to see the city, Faric stopped Dusk and hopped down from the horse. He took a moment to search through his saddle bags, before pulling out his civilian clothing. "We need to change now," he told the Master Thief, stepping behind a nearby tree to swap clothes. He was really good at quick changes, and was out within the minute with his Brotherhood armor under his arm.
He now wore a simple tunic that matched his blue eyes, and a pair of pale breeches. He stepped over to his horse to stow the clothing and pull out a few daggers, which he proceeded to hide on his person. One in a hidden sheathe under his tunic, one openly on his belt as a decoy, and two in his boots. Out Of Charisma:

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ Sibylla simply nodded when Faric gave the command to change their appearances. She took out from her bag a Belted Tunic and waited for Faric to finish changing. Once he was done, which surprised her how quickly he changed, she did the same before stashing away her armor. She really hated the tunic since it was a dress but since she had to blend in, she had no other choice.
"Do you know where the targets are going to be?" she asked the assassin. She took one good look at her Nightingale bow before tucking it away with her armor. She wished it wouldn't attract many eyes but since it did she had to leave it behind. She was going almost weaponless with the exception of the dagger hidden in the boot, but this didn't mind her since she really didn't need a weapon for this mission.

They were near enough the stables that they could walk the horses there, so he responded as he took the horses reins. "Yes, I do. I have a bow stashed inside the city already," he told her, quieting as the city came into view. The stables were still a fair distance from the city itself, so he handed the horses off to a very particular stable hand along with a pouch of coins. The Brotherhood had agents everywhere, for quick escapes, information, lots of things. Lots of those they shared with the Thieves guild.
Once that was taken care of the two headed to the city, and Faric decided to finally tell her the plan. "We have to be careful, with a believable back story, so we're going to pretend to be a new couple. It'll draw less attention, plenty of couples come to Solitude, and we would stand out more otherwise. Having a good story would at least make it easier to move about the city, and give him decent excuses. If he was by himself and needed an excuse to leave, saying he needed to meet someone was a much easier out.

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ Sibylla was impressed by the planning of the Dark Brotherhood. They had already thought of everything even before knowing if she would really tag along the mission. She was deeply grateful for the bow saved for her inside of the city.
"Us a couple eh? Alright then" She didn't said much about it but she couldn't help but blush at the thought. It was the classical back story that always worked and now that she thought about it they could pass easily for one. As they got near the gates she took his hand.
"We got to make it more believable..." She explained

Faric wasn't bothered by her taking his hand, he had done this kind of thing before after all. It was necessarily seeing as he was an assassin, he had to know how to act the part. So he just smiled and gently squeezed her hand as they walked up to the gate, giving one of the guards a light grin as they opened the gate for the two of them.
He was much better at acting like a couple than one would have thought, it was actually fairly believable. They just needed to wander around and kill time before the military official gave his speech for the day, and once that happened he could shoot him and they would need to stay in plain sight (no one ever looked right under their noses) until dark, when he could kill the second person. Then they could leave. Out Of Charisma:

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ She had to admit she was little bit scared when they reached the gate. She had never acted before like if she was in a relationship. Screw that, she's never been in a relationship before. She jumped a little bit when he squeezed her hand and instantly cursed afterwards. She was letting her emotions get on hold of her, she was the Thieve's Guild Master for divine's sake, she couldn't act childish nor make mistakes. Even less in front of the Speaker of the Dark Brotherhood.
"We've passed. Now what do we do?" She knew they had time to kill before the mission began. But she didn't knew if Faric had to meet some people first or had other things to take care off.

"Nothing much, we just need to be seen together," he said softly. Guards were less likely to remember their faces, and more likely to identify them as 'that couple from earlier'. They seemed to think the couples were less likely to commit a crime (well at least while on vacation together). They would be more likely to be enjoy themselves together and be staying out of trouble, doing couple things. Out Of Charisma:

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ "Well, we could see the Temple of the Divines or the Bard's Collage" She suggested, those where places visitors usually went. She would like to see the Burning of King Olaf which was an event hold by the Bard's Collage. It would be nice for once to enjoy briefly something without actually having to worry about stealing from someone. Besides the main festivities there was music and free food for everybody.

"Sounds good to me," smiled Faric, still very much in character. He kept hold of her hand and led her to the bard's college. It was good that the burning of King Olaf had become an almost weekly thing. It certainly attracted a lot of tourists, so the two of them blended in with the crowds. It wasn't long before they had reached the Bard's College.
The scent of food and mead filled the air, and music floated through the air. It was a nice enough place, with plenty to do. There was dancing, singing, eating and drinking. Not to mention that they would burn the effigy of King Olaf soon! Out Of Charisma:

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ Sibylla loved festivals since it was the time where people where most careless and unaware of a thief stealing. One could bump into a person, say that you're sorry and then you walk away with their pouch containing their money. It was the perfect place for thieves to practice their skills, too bad she couldn't do that here.
"Huh, they're playing the Dragonborn comes..." She stated as the musicians started playing it. She heard the songs a couple of times throughout the years and she liked the melody. "Unbelievable right? A person born with the blood and soul of a dragon. He could had defeated the Empire by himself or the Stormcloaks, yet he choose to join the Greybeards." She commented while enjoying the music.

Faric also liked festivals though for a very different reason. All the crowds and chaos made things very easy for him and his siblings to work. Assasinations were as easy as slipping something into someone's food or drink, or a simple 'pat' on the back (with a knife of course).
Not to mention that they also made getaways extremely easy. Just act scared and blend in, a guard might try to talk to you but all one had to do was play the part of terrified visitor. Being a couple made that even easier, because one could pretend to care about their significant other more than whatever the guard was saying.
'I don't know about that. I wouldn't have jumped into that war either," he commented lightly. Out Of Charisma:

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ "Me either, but still he has a lot of power. Wouldn't he be tempted of using it once in a while?" Once in a while she is tempted to break one of the rules of the guild and kill someone intentionally while on the job because he just deserves it. Nobody would see her since she could become invisible thanks to Nocturnal's blessing. But she had to remind herself she was a thief, not an assassin like Faric.
From the corner of her eye she saw a doll fall to the ground. She separated herself from Faric and picked it up. She looked briefly over the crowd until she saw a little girl looking for something on the ground. She walked toward the girl and gave it to her. The girl smiled and softly said 'Thank you' before running toward her mother. A second later she returned to where the assassin was.

"You would think," agreed Faric, quite comfortable discussing the Dragonborn with his 'date' when she suddenly let go of his hand. He noted the doll she had grabbed and almost immediately his eyes landed on the same upset child as Sibylla's did. He watched as she gave back the doll before returning to his side, at which point he took her hand again.
What an odd thing for her to do.
"I didn't know thieves were in the habit of returning lost objects," he murmured. Out Of Charisma:

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ "We don't." Sibylla clarified. She looked briefly at the little girl and the mother from the distant. The child was happily dancing and laughing while holding tight her doll. Careful not to let the same mistake of letting it fall.
"But I have a soft spot for kids..." she added a second later. She cherished the innocence the kids live in. So oblivious to the dangers of the real world. So happy in their protective bubbles, that is until one day they face the truth.
