About this blog
This is Sister Miriam: a starry-eyed novitiate from the Holy Order of the Lamb of Arkay the Merciful in Cyrodiil, with little life experience but a boundless appetite for adventure. She is well-trained in the healing arts, but a mediocre and inconstant priestess of Arkay at best.
This is Hasteinn, called "the Wolf": a veteran mercenary originally from Skyrim, he has traveled the breadth of Tamriel, selling his sword to whichever lord or merchant who could pay him. More devious than his brutish demeanor may initially suggest, he has no qualms about using trickster cunning in and out of combat to complement his prowess with sword and shield.
This is the story of Sister Miriam and Hasteinn the Wolf, together. It is not a happy tale.

This is a playthrough structured primarily around Devious Followers (Continued).
At its best, playing Skyrim with DFC is like slowly sinking into quicksand over the course of dozens of hours. You are constantly under financial pressure, and you're conscious of the follower's creeping dominion over you. But you can't stop it, and it feels (within the logic of the mod) like your fault. It's wonderful and exquisitely horrible at the same time and I wanted to see if I could capture this sensation in a bottle here.
But also, I just really enjoy writing about my Skyrim adventures. Stitching these together into a (hopefully) coherent story has been pretty rewarding in and of itself.
Expect this to be slowly-bubbling sexual tension rather than a full-on sex romp. Also, this is pretty much entirely dubcon (Devious Followers is basically "Dubious Consent: The Mod"); it's very likely to slide into outright non-consent at some point. Sexualized degradation, misogyny and humiliation are likely to become more common as the story progresses. Caveat lector, and all that.
If all that sounds alright to you, come on and stand with me by the gas light. Are my feet kind of sinking into the sand? Don't worry about it, it's fine. ~
