Mira shivered. She rubbed her arms. She wasn’t cold. Fall was in full swing, but her robes were heavy enough for this dreary region of High Rock. Silly. You’re a master mage. Calm down. Nothing to fear here. Here was in Rivenspire, outside the village of Wickhart. In front of Mira were ruins that hadContinue reading “4E 204 – Old Magic”

4E 204 – Work
Tara crouched behind the rock and watched the approaching Thalmor patrol. Being short had its advantages and right now was one of them. Crouching down on the cliff above the road, she was hard to spot. As long as sunlight didn’t glance off her red hair, creating a distracting burst of color, they wouldn’t seeContinue reading “4E 204 – Work”
4E 204 – Me or the Mead
Katla laid eyes on Tara and felt her heart pound. Perhaps even stop. How much she’d missed her hit like a stone wall collapsing on top of her. She wanted to cry with both happiness at seeing her and the grief of missing out on so much time with her. It hurt to breath. AsContinue reading “4E 204 – Me or the Mead”
4E 204 – Reunion
Tara set the three contracts she’d pulled off the now dead Dark Brotherhood assassins onto Commander Maro’s desk. She was in Dragon Bridge, at the Penitus Oculatus outpost. Outside, spring was in full swing, now that the month had turned to Rain’s Hand. Tara’s birthday was in a few days. She couldn’t think of aContinue reading “4E 204 – Reunion”
4E 204 – Family Ties

She wiped the tear running down her face. Tara had written. The letter was short and to the point, as all Tara’s were toContinue reading “4E 204 – Family Ties”
4E 204 – Loyalty
Tara watched Codus Varro enter Solitude through its main gate. He did not look up as he made his way into the Winking Skeever, right below her. Tara sighed and ran her hand through her hair, pushing the loose strands out of her face. Why did it have to be him? The letter with instructionsContinue reading “4E 204 – Loyalty”
4E 204 – Land Mines
Katla stood up from her crouch by the aged oak and slowly stretched. Her knees popped from being bent so long. She scanned the woods. They were as silent as they’d been when she first perched here four hours ago. Outside of a few rabbits and butterflies passing by, she seemed to be alone. Safe.Continue reading “4E 204 – Land Mines“
4E 204 – Testing Mettle
Tara watched her breath plume out into a cold cloud, further obscuring her view of the practice targets. The blizzard was in full swing now. When she’d first stepped out into the training yard earlier tonight, after giving up on getting any sleep, Secunda was shining in full glory. Storms came up suddenly in theContinue reading “4E 204 – Testing Mettle“
