It's nail biting time again! Tier is handling this well, so far, and likely saving the lives of at some of her family! As for Meridia and Azura,,,I can't wait to see what they might come up with! Super, Sis!! |

I Love your stories, as well as those of the rest of the group! I still wish we could put together an anthology of them! |

We could do so - very privately. It couldn't ever hit google though! I'm not sure what Beth's stance on fanfic is.... I could ask Leydenne and Rohugh - they might know/be willing to talk to me about it.... And - thanks again.... *blush* [So, ugh. I got confuzzled between girls.... in Tier's world there is no "prophecy". Gah. Sorry!] [[I edited that a bit just now, to make sense.]] Edited by Serethil, Apr 28 2017, 06:49 PM.

93 - The Companions showing up in force surprises everyone Apparently Mel was really good about explaining the whole thing.... because twelve grim-faced men and women are now staying at the inn. We’ll be having a meeting here shortly. And I’m going to have to insist Var not go along. That’s going to be fun.... But he can’t. He’s the High King, and he can’t get that close to Movarth, or Bal. So, bearding the bear, I pulled him off to the safe room before the meeting. “Var. You can’t come along.” Baldly stated, but how else was I going to say it? And instead of pitching the sort of fit I would have, he just pulled me close and said, a cold grimness in his tone, “I know. If Bal wasn’t in it.... But he is, and we already have enough problems with all that sort of thing.” I almost dropped the teeth out of my mouth - I certainly hadn’t expected sanity.... which says more about my own state of mind than I liked. “I... wish this was over, and we could just be normal people - normal married people. As normal as the High King can be I guess. Tier. Be.... safe. And I’m leaving for Solitude before the meeting starts.” So he did, and I missed him like my heart and soul had holes in them that my life bled through. But I pulled myself together to get the meet going. “First, I want to be sure that you have all heard the entirety of the situation. Since I was the one taken and dropped into a hole, I seem to have some first-hand knowledge that my brother may not have imparted. While we need your help - if something isn’t fully stated, things can.... go awry, yes?” Nods all around, including from da and the rest of the family. So I spent a good hour telling the entire thing. My mouth was dry as dust by the time I finished. The Companion who seemed to be in charge of the group, somewhat older than most of the others, stood. “I am Baldorn Far-strider. Nominally, I lead these Companions - by their voices. I thank you for telling the tale in full - even the parts that made you uncomfortable. “We would have told your brother that the old Dawnguard would have been better - but they seem to have disappeared. They were, you know, vampire hunters extraordinaire. But since they have gone from these lands, we will be happy to assist.” “What can we offer as recompense, Baldorn?” “Let us bring this to a successful end before we discuss that. There will need to be some coin for any who - die.... It would be too much to hope for no deaths. Vampires are.... serious business.” “Aye. They are. We will have a priest with us. She will wait outside the main chamber, and have a small shrine of Talos with her, so that anyone drained or bitten can receive aid in a timely manner.” “If they can make it to her, of course.” I nodded shortly at the statement. “So then. We should all make our peace with our gods. Tomorrow we kill vampires.” And my litany want on in my mind: Let Bal show his form, let me be able to harm him, let my blade be the one to take Movarth’s head.... And please, Divines and princes.... let g'ma be alive and well. Edited by Serethil, Apr 28 2017, 09:18 PM.

94 - I really really don’t want to be doing this.... ....but I have no choice. So I gathered up Naluna, and handed her two extra small shrines to go along with the Talos one she had already tucked away: one each for Meridia and Azura. She sent me an odd glance, but didn’t comment. Just as well probably. It was quite an array really - myself and the men of the family (g’ma wanted to go too, but I put it to her that at least one real Raven had to be alive to keep things in Hjaalmarch together - she hated it, but had to admit I was right), surrounded by twelve Companions. The guards wanted to be involved, but again - I pointed out that g’ma would need them.... and not dead. We headed out to Movarth’s Lair. Baldorn was amazed at how close to the town it was. I tried to explain - that the vampire was able to cloak its presence, and so on - but I think he didn’t understand. Naluna rode the nice little mare I’d given her. She had a full pack of medicinals, and the three shrines. When we reached the cave-mouth, I took her aside, and explained that there would be an area inside fairly deep - but out of the way of the main vampire infestation. She nodded. “I looked at a map your grandmother made after she’d been in here. There’s a little ‘hide’ area where I can set up. Fear you not - I’m able to deal with this sort of thing - I was very well taught. Send any who are hurt - especially those bitten - back to me as soon as possible.” I determined to reward her in some way that would acknowledge her ability to stand against the worst that the princes could produce. I didn’t know what that would be yet - but I would eventually. “So. See you - this is how the cave twists and winds.” I drew a sketch-map in the dirt. “Here - this is where Movarth holds court. It’s not far in, but there are other passages, probably full of more of his ilk, if not so ‘exalted’. Be careful as possible - and return to here” I made a point of showing where Naluna would be stationed “if you are bitten - or if you even THINK you are at risk. Please. Do not be a dead hero....” Baldorn grinned at me. “Lady. We will come to your call at any time! No one in my entire life before has ever asked me to not be a dead hero!” The Companions laughed uproariously. Such are Nords when facing a terrible battle against the forces of the Dark. I grinned myself and bowed. “With Companions such as you with us, we shall be victorious!” I wasn’t sure I believed it, but apparently everyone thought it was a good line.... Now, I led into the depths. And I felt Bal, eager for - the sort of - thrill he most craved. I whispered, “You who are women, guard yourselves! Molag Bal is at hand....” |
