Dovahkin’s Flight

by AJ Marks

Part 10

Zoe made her way to the Blue Palace along with Jordis to meet up with the Jarl before the Thalmor arrived.  It would prove to be an interesting morning which started out good.  The pastries were indeed good making Zoe wonder why he hadn’t been able to start up his business.

He explained over the meal that he acquired some debt due to his father’s gambling addiction before he died.  Zoe asked if it was still a problem and he said he had paid them off last week to which Jordis affirmed his claim.

So with good pastries Zoe agreed to fund his business and if the gamblers came back to send them her way, as a backer she basically ‘owned’ him in their eyes.  He didn’t seem too disappointed and was working with Leah to see about starting the business. Continue reading…

Part 9

Zoe glanced around the party which were going with her to Solitude.  What started out as a small group with only Jordis, Leah and her had grown larger as Brelyna decided to head there to look for some herbs nearby.  Aela, upon hearing she was headed there, mentioned doing some work there as well.  Finally the young merchant, Ysolda, asked to go with them to do some business but had been afraid of going with herself.

Looking down the path Zoe spotted an overturned cart and looked over at Aela who also noticed it.  They shared a glance both knowing what it probably meant before looking at the others

“Hold up,” Zoe stated.

“What’s up?” Leah asked, moving up beside her.

“Trouble, Aela, with me, the rest stay here,” Zoe said to them as she looked at the cart. Continue reading…

Part 8

Zoe woke to an empty bed, not that it surprised her.  It had been a week since her defeat of Alduin and returning back to the Suite.  She had relaxed a bit the first couple of days, and allowing herself to heal up after all her travels.  Leah had already gotten up, she said the previous night there were some things she needed to do.

Running the suite was a challenge, one which Zoe was learning about.  A lot of things, from cleaning to keeping things stocked and that wasn’t even including keep customers happy.  She felt grateful to the girls and OMB who worked hard to keep the suite running.  Farquar was more than capable of handling the locals, and if anyone really got out of hand, they learned real quick the girls were also warriors.

Down below she thought she heard Aela’s voice, along with either Farkas or Valkas, or both.  She also heard some other voices and figured some of the guests were awake.  Getting up and putting on some simple clothes, no need for armor, made her way down the stairs. Continue reading…

Part 7

Zoe made her way down the street with the stars overhead.  It had taken her longer to return than she expected today, but she’d be home in a short time.  Already familiar sights were all around her.  She had gone over everything which had happened in the past year since coming to Skyrim on her way back.

It turned out she was the Dragonborn, and had the unique ability to learn shouts.  She also learned that dragons coming back had been the result of a dragon called Alduin, the World Eater.  Now, it was all over as she turned to cross the bridge and headed to her destination.  A long house which had the best bathing suite in all of Skyrim, the Bathing Beauties Luxury Suite.

Lights were on outside, not that unusual as it was open pretty much all day round.  It got visitors at all times, from people looking for a place to sleep on the road to visitors from all the major cities.  Its reputation had grown that much since she had become owner.

She learned it had much to do with the Bride of Migal, located under the bathing house.  Its energy fed the waters giving it a magical quality, and filling the entire suite with a relaxing, wonderful feeling. Continue reading…

Part 2

Zoe made her way out of the city thinking she might do some fishing.  If nothing else she might get something to eat for the next couple of days.  It might not solve her money problem but she could at least eat.

Looking down the road she noticed a man talking with the guard, wearing an impressive looking set of leather armor and sword.  She slightly flinched when the guard pointed in her direction and the man started towards her.  She wondered if running was an option, but she really had no problems with anyone at the moment.  No debt fortunately so no collectors.

“Are you Zoe Scatlite?” he asked walking up to her.

“Yeah, and you are?” she asked, ready for just about anything, including running if this suddenly turned bad. Continue reading…

Part 1

“Welcome,” the large creature said, speaking in a strange guttural voice.  It was massive, dwarfing her.  “You fear me Laat Dovahkiin.”

Zoe blinked at the name, so unfamiliar it sounded like gibberish to her.  In her fear riddled mind she had trouble even forming a coherent thought with such a creature in front of her.  She did manage to step back, almost stumbling over a rock behind her.

“I see, you are weak,” it stated, its massive head lowering down to look at her, a large eye peering at her.  “I can see into your soul Dovahkin.” Continue reading…
