We're all equal. The tall and the small, the strong and the frail, the nords and the bosmers. Equal. Yet, if you're small, frail, and bosmer, it'll be a bit harder. ^^

 

Paperbacks are smaller stories happening beside the chronicles. If your need to refresh your mind about the chronicles events or characters, you'll find a little summary here.
More stories, from other authors can be found in Malicia's small library.

Not meeting Malicia is heresy ?

 

I'm pretty sure Prince would find her in the ruined shacks with horses ?

Exquisite work ^ _ ^
Starting from humor and ending with the narrative - done beautifully and with style ^^
It is especially noteworthy that the idea of a wandering prince from Stories is preserved.

Btw it seems to me that the picture quality has improved, in comparison with the previous parts, right? It's SE?

Prince of Crossovers...at it again!  

He's probably among the characters that did the most of that, with Aria being probably a first place, and Nora a serious contender. :classic_wink:

Epic. utterly :D:D

He finally going to get his woman...or at least, more bonks on the head >:D

Thanks, for the praise, first lady ! Well, nothing says that he can't get both at the same time. ^^

 

In fact I realized that in Skyrim Lessons it was one of his most repeated objectives, but with a rather harsh ending for him almost each time. So maybe it's time for him to finally get the chance to complete his quest. :star:

Thanks Gauntman. I particularly like that screen too, feels very dynamic/tonic yet still aesthetic at the same time. ?

Thanks for such kind words, Crw. :classic_blush:

 

Regarding the Prince's theme, well it must come second atop Malicia's personal lore, bested only by princesses. ^^ Yet it's quite fitting to Prince's elf, as the stranger theme is one of the most recurrent in the Skyrim Lessons, to the point even his name was inspired from it.

 

As for picture quality... technically nothing has changed in my game compared to previous Paperback (and to Mourning White chapter 3, which was the first with an ENB). But since then, I've read quite some tutorials in the Storytellers Club. And this is the first episode where I've put to use what I learned there (the fov + sucsm commands in particular). axrWsMKf_o.gif

Listen to me now, mister Trilog > I HATE YOU!!! (Please, read "hate" as "love") You made me laugh hard and you made me cry. :)

 

I'm completely speechless. Everything is PERFECT!!! Have no words to explain how I feel at this very moment. I was pleasantly surprised seeing wood elf speaking Croatian (with misspelling) and I laughed hard. That redhead witch is beautiful. Thank you for taking your precious time and making this wonderful episode. I'm sure my Prince will be thrilled when he wakes up and see it. :)  For you :

Well, Trilog, this is wonderful surprise. :)

Thank you, very much. It was pure pleasure seeing my wood elf in your story. Must compliment excellent work: humor, the story and picture quality.  I had a good laugh on some dialogues and scenes. This picture is my favorite. It's for the desktop :)

P.S. Why am I not surprise seeing Eva witch has her fingers in this plot ;)

Love it! Nice job with the switching between the narrator and the characters and their dialogue, which tells the story very efficiently.

Shouldn't Malicia be studying in Winterhold in the first place instead of sitting in the sun and telling stories?

 

Also thanks for the little "shout out" towards the end of the story ;) .

 

Amelie: "Malicia, look at how great your sister looks with these hair, you should were a ponytail like this too. I'm sure the boys in your college would like it too."

Well, the Stranger of Malicia's story does only speak croatian as much as google translate allows it. So much for grammar an misspelling I think. :classic_angel:

 

That aside I realized that Tumblr did resize my images to 1280x720, while they where supposed to be significantly larger. So everything wasn't perfect ! And about the time invested, well working at my normal speed I should've aired the 12 of september, so I had to speed-up a bit. ? But if you ever wanted to ask for a story again (even though it wasn't a real "commission", ask me more in advance. ^^

 

Malicia : « The witch is my little sister, Tryade. She's not as pretty as me, but she's still very nice. But she thinks she knows everything, so she has very bad temper, yes. :classic_sleep: »

You've been bewitched, Prince ! You've been the target of constant witching since more than two years, and you entered the conspiracy willingly ! They're plotting every day for your own happiness, I can tell ! :classic_wink:

I am glad you loved the story, and glad you liked the jokes as well.

 

As for that screen, there are parts where your elf ends up receiving some beating as usual, but I also wanted to show some other sides of him ; and that little travel was a good occasion for that. But theyr is no higher praise for a screenshooter than having one of his images turned into a destkop. So, here is a little bonus for ya :

the textless image. :classic_cool:

 

Btw, I realized that my imagehost resized my images. They should be a little larger now, but loading time should also increase. Warn me if the loading time gets too long. :classic_angel:

Thanks, Alter Native. Doing that kind of parallel narration feels a bit risky : you're never sure you're not overloading the image with information, as the told ones differ significantly from the displayed ones ^^. I'm glad it went well.

 

As for Malicia, despite being a student of the college, she earned her living traveling for mages institutions. And it so happens, that in Whiterune, there's a certain Jon Battleborn... :classic_wink:

 

As for the shout-out, I like establishing a sort of semi-canon lore between characters of different universes. All thanks to TalosExpress®. ^^

Malicia : « Hi-i♪, Amelie ! I'm glad you're doing well ! We were very worried, 'cause of the panther, you see ? Anyway, Tryade has a ponytail, Cecilde always does a ponytail, and Tabi now does the same. So, I won't do a ponytail, no, 'cause I'm very different, yes. :classic_sleepy: »

Thanks Worik. That's due to the limit to the amount of likes one can give in 24H (around 25). Waiting a bit should solve this. :classic_wink:

I would never butcher a whore damsel in distress! :classic_ohmy:

Sadly, I remember an adventure of mine, where I was too late to protect such a poor soul from being slaughtered by an evil villain... ? was it in Anvil? No: Windhelm! Clearly a hypocritical society there. And an utter lack of culture! :classic_angry:

Wasn't this quest precisely about a butcher, btw ? Should I admit that Tabrielle wrongly accused Wuunferth at first ? :classic_angel:

That's because EVIL delights to hide behind the mask of innocence.

EVIL enjoys to place traps for the truely innocent, place false trace, corrupt the thinking of the simple minded, invents false facts, bends the obvious truth, unbalances where balance and equity are needed...

... spread discomfort, distrust and disharmony.

 

That's what makes resisting evil so hard.

Indeed. The appearances can be deceiving ; and that quest was a good reminder of it.

 

But despite what we could've learned about it, that's not Tabrielle's current problem at hand. As Maximus Decimus Meridius once said :

« A soldier has the advantage of being able to look his enemy in the eye, Senator. » :classic_wink:
