  My story is basically about a Bosmer who was imprisoned by Ancano. She manages to escape and now seeks him out for answers and revenge. But she discovers there are other problems in the land of Skyrim on the way...

  I'm not intending for the series to be overly long. I've got an ending mapped out, but how I get there is certainly going to be interesting! It's just an experiment and I'm certainly not a professional writer in any way shape or form. I'm also not sure how lore friendly it will be, but I've had the story idea in my head for quite some time and hope to express it as best I can. I also hate the Thalmor, and especially Ancano, so my story is some way of giving them some payback.

  There may be some mild swearing and there might be some scenes of a sexual nature but I'll keep that kind of thing to a minimum. It's more of an emotional story rather an an action one but there wll be some battle scenes in it

  Prologue Part 01 A Storm Is Coming

  Prologue Part 02 In a Dark Place

  Prologue Part 03 Banditry

  Prologue Part 04 Danifae

  Danifae Chapter 01 Friendship

  

  Danifae Chapter 02 Rats

  Also apologies if you all get a message from me. I clicked the 'Send to group' button instead of the Dicussion button...

  No worries, dude! We have all been there in one way or another. I think you'll want to check with the hosts here, but you'll want to create links in your TOC here which point readers to each chapter as you release them and add the words "TOC" to the title of this discussion. 

  I've posted a few example TOCs for you:

  Hope this helps!

  Oh I will include screenshots later on in the story development, but not right now as it might introduce spoilers. I'm hoping to make it a suspense story with cliffhangers at the end of most episodes...

  Thanks Sotek. No doubt you'll hear me howling in the future...;)

  Hmm..I'm trying to edit the ToC and add another blog post to it but I'm not sure if I'm doing it properly. I clicked on the link you made for me and it's not doing anything so I tried to add part 1 of my story to it, but it seems I did that wrong and it ended up as a reply. Sorry if I'm a bit thick but it takes me time to figure these things out...
