    Chapter 6   It was late evening when a knock came at the door. Grabbing a sword from the nearby weapon rack Iona cautiously opened the door just enough to see who was standing outside.

  • The Traveler from the Marsh - Chapter 4

    1st of Second Seed 4E203, Riften   The carriage stopped just before the stables outside Riften. Han-Ei jumped off the back glad that the long journey was over. The hard wooden seats of the carriage were not easy on his backside for it was numb and his tail was painful from being bent for such...

  • The Traveller from The Marsh - Prologue

    20th Rain's Hand 4E203, Solitude   The spring rains had definitely come early as Han-Ei stood under the overhang of the building to the rear of Proudspire Manor; the home of the Dragonborn who had settled here a year ago. The moonlight from one of the moons barely lit the shadowy gardens of t...

  • The unwelcome foreigner from the south - Chapter 7

    Chapter 7: The college of Winterhold.   We didn't make it more than a few miles before Elanin's summoned horse disappeared right from under us and faded away into nothing. We were travelling at full gallop and both of us went tumbling to the ground in a tangled mess. The snow gave some cushio...

  • The unwelcome foreigner from the south - Chapter 5

    Chapter 5: Windhelm   The wind whistled through the trees as the carriage rocked and bounced over the cobbles and potholes in the road.

  • The unwelcome foreigner from the south - Chapter 4

    Chapter 4 – Time to leave this dump   It was early in the morning a few days later when I decided to make my getaway. Riften wasn't the place I hoped it would be. I had racist remarks thrown at me wherever I went. The place was a crime infested cesspit, it stank, I was the only Khajiit ...

  • The unwelcome foreigner from the south - Chapter 3

    Author's note: This chapter hints at some mild sexual themes. Han Ei is Slays-Many-Elves's name in Jel and as such he is referred to under both names depending on if he is speaking to another Argonian or not.   Chapter 3: Riften   “He is not welcome. If he has business it must be...

    Chapter 2: First night in a new land   I was rapidly becoming tired and Slays-Many-Elves kept turning around looking irritable at my slower pace. “Can't you keep up?” He snarled angrily. “Your legs are longer than mine. Sorry” I apologised. “Well it's getting...

  • The unwelcome foreigner from the south - Chapter 1

    Chapter 1 – arrival in Skyrim   I could see the border gate ahead of me as I climbed the snowy path leading towards Skyrim. I turned around to have one last look towards my homeland which was nothing more than a blur on the horizon. Cyrodiil, the largest of the imperial provinces stretc...
