So, lie many of you, my copy of Skyrim Kinky Edition, has "Laura's Bondage Shop", and "Simple Slavery Plus Plus" and "Slavetats" installed... So, I decided to make my self a set of slavetats for the "Riften Slave Mart" including some that fit in with the story in LBS, and the Dragonborn ending up as "#35". There are also some for various factions in the "Civil War" There are 87 mix-n-match tats in the pack, no, I'm not going to post screenshots of all 87, who has time for that. They are spread across face, upper chest, tits, belly, groin, upper back, mid back, and tramp stamps. Some of them could use some tweaks too the alignment, but I'm tired of messing with them. I might do some more as an additional pack at some point, possibly some "dripping paint" markings, like sale prices etc., but for now, hopefully these 87 will keep you going. Don't forget to post screenshots of your DragonSluts after they have been marked and auctioned... -

File Name: Dwemerification of Riften File Submitter: xenic File Submitted: 17 Mar 2014 File Category: Other Requires: Dragonborn, Dawnguard This is the base version of this mod. In other words, it is a starting point for this city. I only have minor changes to the city, an npc, her home, and some books. There are some changes by the lake as well. Seeing as Riften is a popular choice for modders, I decided to keep the additions to a minimum. I am always open to ideas and suggestions. This is a basic version and more will be coming.

AltNameByeee posted a blog entry in The Frost of Ages
Hey guys! Welcome to Act Seven! So these next three parts together create the final act of Chapter Three.

"That Armor is unreliable friend, take this instead." Part 1: http://www.loverslab.com/blog/407/entry-2461-shitty-armor-13/ Part 2: http://www.loverslab.com/blog/407/entry-2549-shitty-armor-23/ Hope you enjoyed another shitty story, thank you Nisetanaka, Someone, Diablo, and Koffman77 for making these sexy armors, can't wait for the next one. Which is part of the reason i made this now, i couldn't wait. PATIENCE IS NOT A VIRTUE!!! I will be taking a short break while i come up with the next story. The next one will try to be more of an actual story too rather than an excuse to show off sexy poses in armor, though that's fun anyways. Bonne Journee!

What a mess! We were arrested in Riften and nobody told us anything about the charges against us, yet. I doubt we will ever hear about them. That's what I had learned during my last visits in imperial dungeons. Flashback, Pale Pass Fort, 6th of Sun's Height, 201 E4 Now, here in Riften, they take no chances with us. Even inside of the closed prison gates, we are kept in iron. And we will be dumped into some damp and dirty lice infested hole any minute now. Jailer: "This way, my ladies. If you please? I hope it doesn't make too many circumstances for you! Though there is no need to rush. We have plenty of time here." Really! They take no chances. Gagged and bound, all the way to the cell, whatever they call it here. The door gets locked behind us. Flashback, Pale Pass Fort, unknown day, Sun's Height, 201E4 Ciri: "mmmmmmmmm" "hmmph". Yes, me too. I wonder if they let us rot in here or just simply starve to death. Better, we sit down now and rest and try to conserve our strength. Time passes by ..... NOISE, a rattling key and some chains dragging over the rough floor. Guard: (clearing throat ) Guard: "First, the red vagrant!" I take a deep breath. Guard: "And now, the white one." I feel something wet trickling down on my arms and my back. Guard: ".. and back to our ill-bred Reddy here." I pass out. Some time later... ... I'm just wondering, what they will do next to keep us "entertained" ...? But, let's see it positive. We are not gagged anymore, and Ciri's hands have been unbound.

The Jarl of Riften is concerned because of her peoples health and welfare. So nice of her. She really cares for even the smallest souls in Riften. She suggested that I ask someone some ethical "questions" and to convince him of a business alternative. I think that she gave me some very good guidance on the best course of action. Clearly she is not only a caring but also a wise leader And that's exactly what I will do! "Ciri, please wait here. The talking and ethical discussion could get a bit lengthy and boring." Is that the warehouse? Let's wait for nightfall... it makes "talking" so much easier. Blind and deaf? Did they have a taste of their own wares? I like it, when "talking" becomes a bit more initimate. Especially when it's an "ethical" topic. Having a business lunch is always a good idea to seal the deal. Thank you so much for your inspiring opinion. Now, I think I will have a look at your wares myself. Well? That was a nice evening so far, wasn't it? We even reached a common understanding and now share the same ethical ideals. Yes! Jarl Laila Law-Giver was really wise to insist on the "talking" approach. The people of Riften have so much to thank her for.

Everybody knows Riften is home of beggars, sinners and the great Thieves Guild of all Skyrim. There, the citizens are familiar with thievery and all kind of crimes, but this poor woman didn't expect to be caught. She was a beautiful redguard woman called Luna. She wandered all across Skyrim searching for gold and treasures, but despite all her efforts, Luna didn't find anything. She received a tip about a chest full of gems and gold inside The Bee and Barb Inn on the second floor, a gift from Maven Black-Briar. So she went, rented a room and waited until everyone were asleep. Then Luna entered the room where the chest was and opened it. There was nothing in that room... Nothing except an angry argonian and a surprised redguard. She tried to apologize, but the argonian was very angry and he wanted to punish Luna. . . . She was a bad girl... And now she will get a really bad punishment. ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~

The Blackreach Experiments Part 14 - Full Set If you missed Part 13: Here ya go: http://www.loverslab.com/blog/148/entry-676-the-blackreach-experiments-part-13/ There will be a break in between the next set of stories. But hopefully not too long. What do yall think, should I continue these characters or do something new? Anyway, on to the story. Celes and Mani arrived at Riften. Only Celes entered since it probably wasn’t safe for Mani. “Okay, from what I learned, Celine was living here with her daughter but I didn’t think you had kids,” Celes said. “We don’t.” Mani was confused. “Something isn’t right. Last time I saw her, she was talking about a mistress and her eyes were glazed over.” “Hmm, she could be in some sort of thrall. They mentioned her daughter got a job in Solitude. Let’s head there next.” Mani agreed with Celes and they both set off toward Riften. **** About a day later, in Riverwood **** Celes and Mani decided to get some supplies before heading to Solitude. Mani was staring off toward the distance, “I’ve always loved this town. It’s so peaceful and relaxing.” “Me too. It’s one of the few places I can be in my mechanical form without people freaking out. You know, I think that…HURMPH.” Mani turned around and saw an assassin’s blade impaling Celes. Before he could react, the assassin tossed her into the water. He turned his attention to Mani and said some kind of spell. He couldn’t breath and his vision started to fade, then his world went dark. Mani woke in a strange house. He rolled over and saw his wife! “Celine! How did I get here? What are you wearing? Where are we? She crawled to Mani, “Darling, I’ve missed you. We’re in a replica of the house I lived in while Mistress and I stayed in Riften. Isn’t it nice?” “Dear, we need to leave. We can’t stay here.” “Sure we’ll leave but first, a present.” Celine handed Mani a necklace and insisted that he take off his shirt and put it on. He removed his shirt and put on the amulet to satisy his wife then he looked at her impatiently, “Now lets go. We need…to…what was I saying?” “I don’t know dear, you were not making much sense. Let me show you around the house.” “Yes dear, let’s have a look around.” **** Lake Ilunalta **** Arissa was flying over the lake when she noticed Celes washed up against the shore. She flew down and pulled Celes somewhere secluded. If she was careful, she could blame Alduin for her actions and maybe find some redemption. Celes looked up weakly, “Are you going ….to kill me?” Arissa replied, “I’m sorry for attacking you. Alduin corrupted me but I’m free of him now. I’ll get you somewhere safe.” Arissa laid Celes down gently. Celes looked into Arissa’s eyes and weakly said, “I need…. There is a place… Blackreach lab… so tired.” **** Sometime later **** Arissa found a lab in Blackreach. Hopefully it was the right one. It had two large glass tubes and lots of machinery . Celes eyes opened briefly and mumbled. “Inside…tube…sleep. Thank you.” She motioned to some buttons and pressed a few then Arissa placed her in the tube and she seemed to float and then stop. It was like time had paused for her. Arissa guessed it was some kind of stasis spell. She climbed into the other tube and joined Celes in her long slumber. **** A few months later**** Kiva had been using the Pelagius Wing for magical experiments. It was the perfect place to practice without being seen. Although, oddly enough, she always felt watched even though all the rooms were empty. “Was someone just here? Nah, it’s just my imagination,” Kiva thought. She turned her attention back to her spells. “I’ll rule this place before anyone has a chance to stop me. I have all this time in the world.”

The Blackreach Experiments Part 10 - Second Chances If you missed part 9, it's here: http://www.loverslab.com/blog/148/entry-655-the-blackreach-experiments-part-9/ ***About 1 week after Celine summoned the Keeper into Nirn. **** They had taken the long way to Riften and were only now getting close. They decide to make camp for the night. The Keeper waved her hands and the tent set itself up. “Master, I have some questions. There is so much I don’t understand.” “That’s okay pet, you’re not meant to understand much. But what is your question?” The conversation didn’t really bother the Keeper, she had been human once too and to talk to someone, even it was someone in a magical thrall, was still nice on occasion. “Do you have a name? Something other than Master or Keeper?” The Keeper laughed, “Yes pet, I do have a name, although I haven’t used it a very long time. It’s Solmyrkva.” “Celine fumbled with the name, “Solmykiva…Solykvya…” “The keeper held up a hand. “Why not Kiva for short? But when we’re alone, it’s Mistress. Master seems odd.” Celine shook her head in agreement. “Okay, Kiva when we’re out and Mistress when we’re alone. Got it.” She was smiling ear to ear, overjoyed that her Mistress was happy with her. Kiva continued looking at Celine. “Pet, you said you had some questions? Is there another?” “Oh yes! I had forgotten.” Celine shifted nervously. “Well, you are all black and void-like. Why doesn’t anyone freak out when they see you?” Kiva stood up and went to the mouth of the tent. “Well, when I was a dragon priest, I was tricked by the ideal masters. My body was destroyed, and …this is too complicated for you. Basically, things in the Cairn can’t normally exist in Nirn and the ritual that bound me to Nirn caused me to look like this. However, normal humans just see me as a young girl. “This is normal humans see me.” Celine had a headache from trying to grasp it all. She also looked a bit sad. Kiva noticed her mood, “Pet, what’s wrong?” “I’m having trouble understanding. I used to be smart…I remember that.” Kiva consoled her, “You’re as smart as I need you to be.” Celine smiled, “Thank you Mistress.” Then she laid her head down and went to sleep. “Sleep well little pet. I have so many more plans for you but you have too many questions.” She called up a spell and blue fire filled her hand. She placed then placed her hand on Celine’s head. Celine let out a small sign. “Hopefully this is the last time I have to reduce your intellect.” Kiva stepped out of the tent and placed a protective shield over it. “There. No one will be able to see or enter the tent.” Then she went to a nearby village to ask about current events and plan her next move. Celine and Kiva resumed their trip to Riften. They arrived at the gate around noon. One of the guards stopped them. “Halt, before you enter the city, you have to pay the ta….” He squinted a bit before saying, “A kid and her mother. I can’t. Just forget the tax and go on in.” As they entered the city, a woman named Mjoll told them to be careful, that this wasn’t a good place for two young women alone. Kiva brushed her off and they walked around Riften for a long while. When night started to comem they headed to the inn. Kiva ordered some food and drink and the two enjoyed a nice meal. She noticed a couple of men kept looking over at Celine. “Looks like you have a couple of admirers pet,” she whispered. Celine blushed a bit but kept eating. “Oh, that gives me an idea,” Kiva said. She got up from the table and spoke to the two men. Celine was thoroughly confused. Then Kiva spoke to the innkeeper. She handed her some gold and the innkeeper pointed upstairs. Kiva led Celine to a bedroom. “Okay pet, this room is yours. I’ll be right downstairs. When you’re finished, I’ll join you. “Finished?” Celine asked. “Yes, pet. You’re about to have some company. Several hours later, the two men came downstairs and left the inn. Kiva joined a very tired and worn out Celine. “Good job pet. Now we’re 500 gold richer.” Celine tried to get up but passed out. Kiva was about to lay down until she noticed the condition of Celine and the bed. She locked the door with a spell and rented the adjoining room instead. 202 The next morning after a hot bath and breakfast. Kiva took Celine to a quiet spot by the lake. “I have some bad news,” she said. “Your husband Mani was found guilty of murder. Apparently, someone he was traveling with went on a killing rampage and Jarl Ulfric is blaming him since they can’t find the actual person.” Celine had been playing with the bones on Kiva’s armor the entire time. She hadn’t even processed the fact that Mani was in Skyrim as being noteworthy. “Mistress, I still love him, and I don’t want him to die, but I don’t want him to take me away from you either.” “Well, there is nothing I can do to get him out, but I could give you some time alone with him. Didn’t you tell me once that you wanted to have a child with him?” Celine nodded her head. “Well pet, I think you should. We’re heading to Windhelm. Lets go.

The Blackreach Experiments Part 9 - Accusations You can read Part 8 here: http://www.loverslab.com/blog/148/entry-649-the-blackreach-experiments-part-8/ After meeting with Alduin, Arissa arrived at the Bannered Mare. “Just waiting for the dragonborn to showup will be so boring. There is just nothing to do in this city. It’s a trade capital, shouldn’t it be busier,” she grumbled to herself. She overheard Hulda tell Saadia that a man in strange armor was picked up by the companions. He had fought his way out of Blackreach and collapsed on the surface. “Hmm,” she thought, “this could be interesting.” She snuck up to his room to get a peak at the stranger. “Wow,” he’s not bad at all.” she thought. The man stirred in his sleep. “Celine…I’m sorry I couldn’t save you….” he mumbled. “Well that’s no good. I need some entertainment…unless…” Arissa readied a spell she had recently learned. If it worked, whenever he looked at her, he would see the person he loves most. She charged the spell and struck him with it. Sometime later, Mani woke from his sleep. “Is this the Bannered Mare? It must be. He walked to the indoor balcony connected to his room and looked out at the inn. Then he saw her! His wife, Celine, sitting in the corner enjoying a drink. He blinked and realized it wasn’t her but a blue skinned woman. Apparently she had caught him staring at her because she had gotten up and was coming toward the balcony. “Got a good look?” she asked. Mani looked down, ready to apologize but suddenly the woman looked like his wife. “Well, I’m waiting,” she said. “Uh ummm sorry dear. I mean, not dear…. for a second you looked like my wife.” “Well, someone is very forward. I’m really picky with my men but if you like what you see, then we can talk later.” She gave him a fiendish smile. “No, I really didn’t.. I mean, you… agrh. Forget it. Mani went down to speak to the woman. He explained that his he and his wife, Celine had been separated and he didn’t know if she was alive or dead. Arissa feigned sympathy the entire conversation. Mani straigtened in his chair “But the reason I am in Skyrim is to find the Dragonborn. All I know is there is a plot to kill him. I suspect the Thalmor so I need to find him and warn him.” Arissa sat up straight and immediately wondered, “How did he know of Alduin’s plan to kill the dragonborn?” She knew she’d have to learn more. “Sure, I’ll help you find him. I’ve been curious what he is like.” She was of course lying but Mani had no clue. She stood up, “Well, lets go.” Mani quickly looked because he heard that in his wife’s voice. And it was his wife staring at him. But then it was just an impatient Arrisa again. “Yes, let’s go,” he said. “I heard he may be travelling between here and Riften. I was going to wait but now that I have company, we can catch up to him.” Arissa patted Mani on the rear as she walked past. The two made their way to Riften via carriage. It was an uneventful journey. By the time they arrived, Mani was exhausted. He booked a room and left Arissa to her own devices. Meanwhile downstairs, Arissa spend the next half hour talking to the innkeeper about various things. “But anyway,” Arissa said, “I would love to meet the dragonborn. I mean, if he’s as amazing as they say what with fighting for the Stormcloaks, helping orphans, and being a champion of the people.” Keerava leaned on the bar, “If you wanted to meet him, he just left. He shouldn’t be far. I’ll let your friend know you left.” “Thank you,” Arissa said. Keerava went about refilling drinks and didn’t see Arissa’s change in mood. “That bastard will NOT get away. I will not be deprived of my reward!” she fumed to herself. Arissa was getting more and more furious as she left Riften. It was like she was tapping into power she didn’t know she had. Even her footsteps started leaving ice and frost on the ground. She knew the direction he was heading and she was reacting on pure instinct. She ran to the cliff edge and threw as much magic behind her as she could. It was enough to propel her off the cliff. She sailed gracefully through the air with her target in sight. She used magic to cushion her blow. By now she was radiating with newly discovered power. She was standing only feet from the dragonborn. “I’m going to enjoy killing you, What are going to do? Shout at me?” “You’re not even worth the effort!” He moved with speed and agility that belied his stature. Arissa was caught totally off guard. She readied her weapon but it only dinged his helmet. “By the gods, he can move fast!” she thought. The battle spilled into a road, where it caught the attention of a Stormcloak patrol. The dragonborn was taking the full force of her spell and still closing on her! The Stormcloaks were almost upon them but she didn’t care. She let them share in the icy blast. The dragonborn dropped to his knees. He was gravely wounded. Arissa turned her attention to the soldiers but there were too many. Far too many. She felled soldier after solider until one slashed her in the back. She shrieked out in pain. She killed him with an ice spike but another guard got a well placed cut across her mid section. She collapsed. The dragonborn came up behind her with the last of his stamina and stabbed her through the back. “Die you monster!” The sword grew cold as well did the surrounding air. As he pulled the sword out, a surviving archer got in a few last shots. She collapsed. Ready for death to take her, she whispered, “I just…wanted to go home.” Then a blinding light enveloped her and she was gone. The dragonborn collapsed with the other bodies and the surviving archer ran to the closest city for help. ***Back in Riften *** Mani woke to his room full of guards. “What’s…” was all he had time to say. The commanding officer spoke, “By order of the Jarl, you are under arrest for crimes against the city of Riften and the Stormcloak army. Now get up scum!” He tried to reason with them but to no avail. Apparently Arissa had killed several guards in an attempt to kill the Dragonborn. “This can’t be happening,” he kept telling himself but when he got downstairs, he realized it was far worse than he thought. He was stripped of all his gear and marched out of the city in chains. His only hope would be to speak to the Jarl of Windhelm and explain this was not his doing. *** In Windhelm, several hours later *** The priestesses had done all they could for the Dragonborn. He was given his own room at the inn but he had still not woken up. Outside, the guards were discussing his situation. “So they say he fought some kind of devil.” The other turned to his comrade, “Hopefully the Jarl will do something about the guy that helped her. We had a chance against these damned dragons, but now…” The first guard tried to cheer up his friend, “Listen, when the Jarl returns from the summit, we’ll at least have a cease fire, Ulfric will think of something. Trust me.” *** Down in the Windhelm dungeon *** Mani had been locked into a cell. “Please! I’m innocent! I wanted to help the Dragonborn not kill him!” But there was no one to listen to his pleas. *** In a tranquil glade in Sovngarde **** A magical explosion, followed by the cries of a woman in extreme pain shattered the silence. Arissa lay before Alduin. “Rise mortal. You can not die here. Even know you are healed.” Arissa got to her knees. She was still in terrible pain but thankfully not dying. Realizing Alduin was staring at her with anger, she began pleading, “Please Master, I’m sorry I failed you. I can’t beat him he’s just too strong. Please, just help me to get home and find someone else I beg of you.” Alduin let out aa deep laugh. “Hahaha! I lied little one. That strange ship you came in was destroyed and I have no idea how to send you back.” But I won’t let you leave empty handed. He glared at her and magic engulfed her. She screamed in pain and the magic subsided. “What…what have you done to me?!” Her tears were flowing down her face, she tried to wipe them but her hands had become claws. “Why?! Why would you do this?” She held her head in her hands, too ashamed to even look at herself now. Alduin spoke to her again, “Once you leave this place, you will not be able to return. You will be feared and hunted across all of Tamriel. Not accepted by Man, Mer, or Dragon. That is your reward for failure. Mwhahaha.” Alduin flew off into the sky and vanished, leaving Arissa alone with her tears.

I wanted to get back to Alicia's story but it had been so long I wasn't sure I wanted to pick it back up, I also had an urge to tell someone else's story for a bit. Alicia's story isn't over yet but Vera's is one I'd like to tell for the awhile. Any feedback on it would be welcome ❤️ :))
