South of Rorikstead, on the edge of the Reach

 

Elynea: My village was burned on the grounds when a Thalmor was hidden.

So many innocent souls...

Screen-Shot3610.jpg

 

I'm ashamed, but I have nowhere to go, maybe Analande can help me while I've get to compose myself.

Screen-Shot3612.jpg


By the Divines, what happened here?!

Screen-Shot3614.jpg

 

Forsworns!

Screen-Shot3616.jpg

 

Nanwen! Oh no!

Screen-Shot3622.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3620.jpg

 

Later, in the Manor

 

Screen-Shot3624.jpg

 

Halbora: Ma'am! It's so good you came, the mistress was seriously injured!

Screen-Shot3626.jpg

 

Elynea: Take me to her!

Screen-Shot3628.jpg

 

Analande: Elynea, I-I can't move...

Screen-Shot3630.jpg

 

Elynea: Don't be afraid, this spell will help!

Analande: Thank you...

Screen-Shot3634.jpg

 

Analande: Where is Nanwen? I heard he went after the Forsworns, but he hasn't come back since...

Elynea: I'm sorry, but he's dead...

Screen-Shot3632.jpg

 

Analande: No, it can't be... he's so strong, he can't leave me here! What will happen to me without him?!

Elynea: I know it's very difficult now, but you have to calm down. With the help of magic, you are out of danger, but you must rest!

Screen-Shot3668.jpg

 

Analande: I don't want to calm down! He was my life, I...

Elynea: Ana!!!

Screen-Shot3637.jpg

 

She fainted...

Screen-Shot3639.jpg

 

Halbora, lock the doors, I'll be back soon. Don't let her get up, she's still very weak...

Screen-Shot3641.jpg

 

Halbora: And if the Forsworns come back?!

Screen-Shot3643.jpg

 

Elynea: Don't worry, they won't!

Screen-Shot3645.jpg

 

Later

 

Screen-Shot3647.jpg

 

Elynea: So these scumbags camped here...

Screen-Shot3649.jpg

 

In prison I understood, I have to release my anger... Maybe I will succeed again...

Screen-Shot3651.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3654.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3656.jpg

 

I'm gonna destroy you all!

Screen-Shot3658.jpg

 

What happened to my beloved land? Stormcloaks, Forsworns, the Dominion are also pushing further north...

Screen-Shot3660.jpg

 

I thought nothing would ever change in that little village... Reality kicked the door on me...

Screen-Shot3662.jpg

 

Rosethorn Manor

 

Screen-Shot3664.jpg

 

Elynea: You are safe now, for now...
Halbora: The gods sent me, madam, I thought all...
Elynea: Shhh. Ana, How is she?

Screen-Shot3695.jpg


Halbora: She is sleeping. In addition to her injuries, she must have been a very big shock.

Screen-Shot3699.jpg


Elynea: They were a couple for decades, Nanwen's death may never get over her. Now go get some rest and I'll look after her.
Halbora: Thank you.

Screen-Shot3697.jpg

 

Spoiler

Few days later

 

Analande: W-where am I?
Elynea: In your home. Everything is fine now.

Screen-Shot3666.jpg


Analande: How could everything be okay after this? I wanted to spend my life with him...
Elynea: You can't give up Ana. Not here, not now.

Screen-Shot3670.jpg


Analande: I feel like nothing makes sense anymore.
Elynea: This is completely understandable, but over time, when the pain subsides, you have to live your life.

Screen-Shot3672.jpg


Analande: Those filthy natives, I'll kill them all!
Elynea: They don't cause problems anymore..

Screen-Shot3674.jpg

 

Analande: I should have gone with you and had my revenge!

Screen-Shot3676.jpg


Elynea: Your revenge is to survive.
Analande: Hmph...

Screen-Shot3678.jpg

 

Elynea: I hate to ask you about this, but how could they attack you so unexpectedly? I thought the Manor was well guarded.
Analande: Most of the guard were mercenaries, but most of them joined the Civil War armies because they were promised better money. They ungrateful bastards!

Screen-Shot3680.jpg


Elynea: You can't live like this here for long, we should ask for help.

Screen-Shot3682.jpg

 

Analande: I don't trust anyone after this, I don't ask for help from the nords anymore!

Screen-Shot3687.jpg

 

Elynea: I came here via Rorikstead, but everything seemed fine there. Maybe you could be safe there too...

Screen-Shot3689.jpg


Analande: The Forsworn raid the area from time to time, but they always leave Rorikstead untouched. They say there's something they're afraid of...

Elynea: Since when do you believe the rumours?
Analande: Facts are stubborn things. I don't want to interact with people anymore...

Screen-Shot3685.jpg


Elynea: I'm trying to ask for help, I did deal with those who attacked you, but word gets out quickly, and I'm not enough against a larger army alone...

Screen-Shot3691.jpg

 

Lock the doors, I'll be back as soon as I can!

Screen-Shot3693.jpg

 

Is it really true? Is Rorikstead hiding dark secrets?

Screen-Shot3701.jpg

 

Still, my only chance to tell someone...

Screen-Shot3703.jpg

 

Frostfruit Inn

 

Screen-Shot3705.jpg

 

Erik, The Slayer: Come on in beautiful girl! Here you will find everything a tired traveler could wish for!

Screen-Shot3707.jpg


Elynea: Thank you. I really need help. We need people for hire.

Screen-Shot3709.jpg


Erik: What can I do for you? I will also follow you to Oblivion in exchange for some septim.
Elynea: Are you enthusiastic, but not a little inexperienced?
Erik: It's true that I'm a novice, but I'm tough and strong! Try it and see, you won't be disappointed! Dragonborn believed in me and now I'm here!

Screen-Shot3711.jpg


Elynea: The Dragonborn? What do you know about her?
Erik: She helped convince my father that I was not destined to be a farmer. I wanted to be a fighter and she supported me. Her name is Aeliana and she is beautiful like you...

Screen-Shot3713.jpg


Elynea: I'm blushing already... Maybe you can prove me, but there are only two of us.

Screen-Shot3715.jpg

 

Elynea tells what happened at the Manor.

 

Erik: We didn't know anything about that. The truth is that neither the guard nor the population cares about anyone but themselves.

Screen-Shot3717.jpg


Elynea: We can't wait here forever while another mercenary makes a mistake, I have to go back as soon as possible.
Erik: I'll go with you.

Screen-Shot3719.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3721.jpg

 

Elynea: Ana, I tried to get help, but... Oh, I didn't know you had guests.

Screen-Shot3729.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3725.jpg


Analande: You may remember my nieces, she is Kilisia and Laanari. I know few more skilled Altmer mages than them. They will take care of the protection, we don't need a human...

Screen-Shot3727.jpg

 

Erik: I think they don't welcome me here and I would just be a burden, I'm going back...

Screen-Shot3731.jpg


Elynea: It's already late, wait for the morning. I called you here, I don't want you to get into trouble because of me.

Screen-Shot3733.jpg

 

Spoiler

That night

 

Kilisia: Our aunt Ana told us a lot about you when we were children.

Screen-Shot3737.jpg


Elynea: I remember you, but you were really small, so I didn't recognize you.

Screen-Shot3739.jpg

 

Laanari: Come drink with us! The way I see it, you should relax a little!

Screen-Shot3735.jpg


Elynea: I think you are right. Cheers!

Screen-Shot3741.jpg

 

A little later

 

Elynea: There's something wrong with this drink. I hardly drank any of it, but my body is swimming in intoxication...

Screen-Shot3743.jpg

 

I feel like I'm floating...!

Screen-Shot3745.jpg

 

Kilisia: It's okay, let yourself go!

Laanari: This is going to be a magical night...!

Screen-Shot3747.jpg

 

Elynea: What are they doing?!

Screen-Shot3750.jpg

 

This is not allowed, they...

Screen-Shot3752.jpg

 

Their lips as they touch my skin...!

Screen-Shot3754.jpg

 

AAAAHHHH!!! More, more, more...

Screen-Shot3756.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3758.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3760.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3762.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3764.jpg

Screen-Shot3784.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3786.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3788.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3790.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3792.jpg

 

The next day

 

Elynea: Ana, we need to talk!
Analande: Did something happen?

Screen-Shot3794.jpg


Elynea: Your nieces mixed something in my drink last night! I fell into a complete trance, and they took out their desires on me!
Analande: Maybe you didn't enjoy it?

Screen-Shot3798.jpg


Elynea: It's not about that! The point here is that they were taken advantage of me! Don't you think that's a little scary?
Analande: I've known for a long time that they're both attracted to girls, and I know that you've also had dealings with women.

Screen-Shot3800.jpg


Elynea: It's not about who is attracted to whom. I was recently raped by soldiers, they played with me like a rag doll, I was their object!!! This almost happened again yesterday!

Screen-Shot3804.jpg


Analande: I didn't know that dear, please don't be angry. I will punish them, according to its order and manner.
Elynea: I can't stand this. I have to go now...

Screen-Shot3796.jpg


Analande: Please don't. Stay with me. Grief is still very close and I can't go through it alone. I promise they won't go near you again, but please stay.
Elynea: I don't know...

Screen-Shot3802.jpg


Analande: I have always loved you and your family, the bond between us is so old, only with you do I have a chance to get over what happened.
Elynea: It's fine, I'll stay for a while, but only because of our past.
Analande: Thank you, I am so grateful!

Screen-Shot3806.jpg

 

Analande: I remember your friend, that nord, he left early this morning.
Elynea: I thought at least he would say goodbye...
Analande: He wasn't one of us, and he could sense it. He wouldn't have been able to do much on his own anyway...
Elynea: Maybe...

Screen-Shot3808.jpg

 

Spoiler

Days later

 

Halbora: Help! Somebody help me!

Elynea: What happened? By the Gods!

Screen-Shot3810.jpg

 

How did this get in here?!

Screen-Shot3816.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3812.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3814.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3818.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3820.jpg

 

Elynea: Are you hurt?
Halbora: Fortunately no, thank you.

Screen-Shot3826.jpg


How did a full grown Chaurus Hunter get in here? Is the magical protection of those two bitches worth that much?

Screen-Shot3822.jpg

 

The basement...

Ana disappears for days and We don't know where is she...

Maybe it will be revealed now...

Screen-Shot3824.jpg

 

Auri-El have mercy on us...!

Screen-Shot3828.jpg

 

Analande: Now you're falling asleep...

Screen-Shot3830.jpg

 

DsSElRUt_o.png

 

Elynea: Where am I?! What is happening to me?! HMMMMMPFFFF!!!!

Screen-Shot3848.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3846.jpg

 

Kilisia: She will be the first perfect subject, the mature offspring will be much stronger than any before!

Screen-Shot3872.jpg

 

Analande: I'm sorry Elynea, but I had to do this. For me and us, for the survival of our species.

Screen-Shot3870.jpg

 

I can't let the cursed people take everything from us and shame us! Recently, my spouse...tomorrow everyone will be die!

Screen-Shot3850.jpg

 

Elynea: You're completely crazy! Get this worm off me!!!! AAAA!!!!

Screen-Shot3852.jpg

 

Analande: I had to make a sacrifice. That victim is you. We have no other hope...

Screen-Shot3874.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3854.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3856.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3858.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3860.jpg

 

Elynea: No...

Screen-Shot3832.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3834.jpg

 

No...

Screen-Shot3836.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3838.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3840.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3842.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3844.jpg

 

NOOO!!!!

Screen-Shot3862.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3864.jpg

 

Laanari: Her power keeps growing, I can't stop her...!

Screen-Shot3866.jpg

 

Elynea: I ran away from the soldiers, slaughtered the Forsworns by myself, yet you underestimate me! I can't let you continue this sick shit. Nanwen is rolling in his grave, ashamed of what you've become, and I'm ashamed too!

Screen-Shot3868.jpg

 

You were once a friend of my family! But you threw away senses in exchange for madness! That's why you must die!

Screen-Shot3878.jpg

 

Screen-Shot3876.jpg

 

Damn it! Teleport spell!

Screen-Shot3882.jpg

 

But one of them won't run away...

Erik: Is anyone still alive here?! I'm in the back! 

Screen-Shot3880.jpg

 

Elynea: So you didn't leave...I wish you had. I'm so sorry to drag you into this...

Screen-Shot3886.jpg

 

Erik: It didn't look like they just started this whole thing. They were confident and determined. I guess they meant me for dinner, or worse...!

Screen-Shot3884.jpg

 

Elynea: I simply don't understand how this could happen. Analande wasn't evil, she would never do that. But I have to find her before she claims more victims...

Screen-Shot3888.jpg

 

To be continued...

Analande, when I saw her, I immediately saw that she was suspicious.

 

Especially if you've read the early episodes of Aeliana's story.

Ahh, that's why she seemed rather familiar.

We can also say that this is the "backstory" of the character. Aeliana, on the other hand, will only appear occasionally.

It is much more important to wish a person more luck with their future acquaintances! 😇


Although from an onlooker's perspective, .... isn't really ... Yes, of course it's not even a morally questionable wish for more treachery, violence and more effective destruction spells ... but who ever said chaos was moral? 😁


**As if to confirm, there are about 27 typos in that one word ... yeah, counting is still not my thing too 🥺
