Arilith in Windhelm

Arilith started thinking about her plans and future life, and what should she do in this City, and she realised she had no such things, she never really thought ahead that much, all she wanted to start a new life far away from her former owner and former life in Morrowind.

In the far she saw the Gray-quarter, little alley where the nords put the dunmer like she, many things went in her mind, many questions, but one thing she wondered the most, how all of us fit in that place and how crowded it will be, she expected at least a Quarter, but it was just one alley in the City.. She felt it was ridiculous and insulting..

 

Arilith: One Alley? Is this a joke? If you call it Gray-Quarter, at least give a quarter of the city..

While she was just looking angrily at the Gray-Quarter, a mysterious creature jumped front of her, it was a feathered beast with wings, but nothing like anything she was in Morrowind, at first she thought it was some other variant of the cliffracer, it was annoying, had weird noises and could fly, but no this thing was different..

 

Arilith: What are you?

 

752806954_enb2019_05_1310_54_14_48.jpg.c1ef2c40793749ece4b91e2813cc4d46.jpg

 

Arilith just looked it confused and couldn't really thought any answer what is she looking at, but one thing she already knew, this beast wasn't going attack her or kill anyone..

 

Arilith: What a weird creature, beast of these lands look so alien compared Morrowind ones.. I gonna call you Feathered-Cliffracer..

Eventually Arilith stopped looking at the mysterious Feathered-Cliffracer and decided time to explore and visit her new home the Gray Quarter, after she thought she will have enough time to examine the weird beast she gonna meet in the City..

 

Arilith: Time to explore the little Alley where I gonna live..

The Gray-Quarter the entrance of it, already made Arilith feel bad, it was small alley, while the familiarty of the dunmer culture was there, the opression of the nordic city as well welcomed her, one side of her hoped this might be better place then where lived before..

 

Arilith: The Gray-Alley of Windhelm...

 

2010740333_enb2019_05_1310_56_35_95.jpg.77a528daf45fcddb5b6116904245f144.jpg

 

The place get smaller and more crowded as she walked more and more in it, the houses of the dunmer where putted into one nordic house, dividing the building to multiple home of many families, her mood worsened for each step..

 

Arilith: I at least expected a bit better place then Ravenrock..

In the end she reached the center of the Quarter...

 

Arilith: This place is small, more I walk the smaller it become..

However, moment she reached the center, she was frozen of the shock and suprise, hiding her mouth and its expression, only showing her eyes to look at it..the least thing she expected seeing in this frozen shitehole...

 

Arilith: It can't be...

It was a Netch, one adapted of the cold of Skyrim, a familiar creature from her home Solstheim, something she never expected to see again, it brought some warm and joy to her day..

 

Arilith: I can't believe to see one in this place, last thing I ever expected, its look cute, I want pat it..

One of the dunmer who sit there nearby, he merely greeted her and suggested to visit the Cornerclub of the Gray-Quarter..

 

Dunmer man: Ahhh newcomer girl, welcome to our home, I hope you will find joys like you have now in the future, I suggest visit the corner club here, it is actually here..

Arilith: Ohh alright..

She took the advice of the dunmer man and walked in to the the Cornerclub of the Dunmer... wasn't hard to find the place, like the dunmer said, it was in the center of the Gray Quarter.

 

Arilith: My my..

She saw a little roughed up version of Ravenrock's one, with many friendly dunmer faces instead the hateful ones of the nords, while the building remained nordic, its heart now belong dunmer, she felt relief finally arriving a safe place in Windhelm..

 

Welcome young girl, take a seat..

After all events in Windhelm, Arilith finally felt finally a bit happy, her expression showed a smile, it been long time ago, when she smiled last time..

 

Arilith: Well I think I will take a seat..

Arilith sit down and ordered a classic drink from Morrowind, while waiting excitedly and thinknig what should she actually do here and what is her plan, the owner of the place said her a few things..

 

We talk after the guest leaved, there are a few things we should talk about your life here..

Well general idea of that scene is to shown Arilith's unfamiliarty of Skyrim and its creatures, like she had in her old version.

 

I thought make sense, Arilith lived in her life in morrowind,c reatures of Skyrim gonna be "alien" to her

 

Its from the Dawn series, yeah mod.

I know she should get raped to death by Rolff moment she stepped in the city ?

 

Anyway, either way this kind of entry was necessary to get started the stuff I wanted

I agree with Crw here, it feels a bit short and uneventful. That being said the entry is still a pleasant read, with a very palpable "refugee" feel imbued into it... But too short. :classic_wink:

Liked the unexpected sides of the hen and the netch, that being said. Also the clothes of your characters seem so superior to the ones of mines, I downloaded Bethesda's HD texture pack but I don't think they considered fixing Malicia's dress with it. :classic_biggrin:

 

 

Malicia : « That's a chicken, Arilth. It's very important, 'cause they lay eggs so you can bake cookies and breton crepes, you see ? :classic_lightbulb: »

I mean, I can't help it, this part of the story is ended up this, next time it will move on the points I want, but what could be done here, it was her exploring a bit the quarter and see a bit happy mood after the horrible mess she experienced, like this part could be just called "Arilith finally feels good".

 

I couldn't put any exicitng event or something there, due how i planned the future chapters and events of her story

 

Should she just really assulted by the guard due just existing, would be more eventful

 

I wanted showcase with the chicken and the netch the duality of "Morrowind alien world" feel of us, while us Morrowind is very unusual, for Arilith it is Skyrim, wich suggest she gonna have deal with "alien" creatures of this land and the nordic culture.

 

Despite being shitty in the Gray quarter, she feels familiar feel of her home, thus making her feel comfortable.

You did quite well, and I think sex with a guard would've been unnecessary. My point wasn't to add lewd content, but just to add more content, would it be solely character development or Arilith meeting a cow socializing with her fellow dunmers. Yet the read was good, and you transcribed what you wanted quite accurately.

Thanks ?

 

That wasn't really serious, just more of bit of mocking, I did not planned to have lewd content in this chapter.

 

No matter how I structured and planned, either this chapter needed to be done.

 

In the coming ones I can move on the plot points I want.

 

Not sure how eventful maybe the next time, but plot will move.

Poses and expressions are perfect, light and scenes are well chosen.

Story is ok, but the solitude she lives through there should have been a stronger influence. Hm.. lacks drama, so to say. I'd chose a dog - or a cat. Dog, yeah. More aggressive, more of a threat... well, you'll get the idea.

Well she wasn't really that much in Solitude, she is now due being a foreign place.

 

In the coming parts I can actually get start working on the events truly, now she is truly in Windhelm. ?

 

Not sure on the dog part.

The desolate feel of "immigrant" quarter mixed with an innocent unfamiliarity regarding the domestic species of Skyrim sets up a perfect parallel to the state of Arilith's mind. Everything around her is cold, sad, unwelcoming and at the same time new, strange and maybe a little bit curious. You did a marvelous work in showing it.  And the scene with the netch is just so cute. ☺️

 

Judging by that last screenshot, things are about to go really bad for poor Arilith again, aren't they? ? (usually the phrase " there are a few things we should talk about regarding your life here" does not lead to "We'll give you food, lodging, set you up with a nice job and you'll be completely fine." ?)

Thank you ☺️

 

Finally someone got my intention and my plans for this entry, that what I was going for in this entry, it may uneventful compared the other ones, but it needed to be done for the future entries.

 

Well your sucpicion has its bases, Arilith time not gonna get any easier, and it may get worser, real problems start just now, after all she just arrived to Windhelm.

Windhelm was one of the bigger missed opportunities in the game IMO, the background material makes it out to be so much darker than it seems in game. Then there's my usual issue with the pitiful size of Skyrim cities that just does not do it justice.

Yeah finally, she can be a bit more joyful in that city.

Missed opportunities is common word for everything in Skyrim let alone just Windhelm.

 

Just city got a massive content cut down with many things wich could made it darker.

 

I think from the 3D TES games, skyrim has smallest cities.

True enough, but I'm sure you've heard me complain about the scale of SKyrim cities enough times now ?

Opposed the previous games, we can only do size increase of the minor holds and other towns, big cities stuck in that size, few mode can it make somewhat better.

 

But yes, we talked about the subject a lot ?

Well we need to gate off the cities so console players can handle them... it's for the greater good ?
