    Ok, so i'm back. Kind of. I'm playing Skyrim again with my Bosmer thief / archer Finayla and as I like having a good back-story in my head for my characters I decided to write it down. Then of course I felt like I had to share it so if I decide to post pictures of Fin later on, y'all would know who she is... so... nuff said!

    Right on!
    Welcome back, Jess!

    I see I've got a bit of catching up to do, due to RL interfering with my reading time big time....^^

    I like this story....big Stardrir with a huge heart for such a petite and gorgeous little Bosmer lady.
    (Reminds me of another certain big Nord lad who's heart was likewise lost to a certain lovely young Dunmer lass....)^^

    Where the Dominion's "Anschluss" of Valenwood is concerned:
    Not all Bosmer were against it, in fact many were all for it, particularly in the upper classes, go figure; others were simply bought, bullied, or buried, as is usually the case....

    Gotta go to the next chapter now....

    Endorsed.
    Warm thanks, Jess, and cheers, dear!

    First i must say sorry, because i over looked your Return. By Thalos what a Shame for me

    It's great new Start of a new Storyline. A impressive Chapter 1 with a fascinating Char and excellent Captures.

    Great Return from you dear Jess

      Hehe, by Talos!! You crack me up. And don't feel bad, I didn't 'announce' my return because when I posted this first chapter I wasn't sure if I was coming back to stay. So my bad!

    Awesome first chapter! I love the way you set the stage by introducing us to Fin's parents. This is going to be such a great read- I must hurry on to the next chapter :-D
    As I'm reading this, I am remembering what a pleasure it is to read your work. How skillfully you create a story, the words you choose and how easily they flow together- so naturally. Glad you're back!

    Hi Jess,
    Just found this today as at the moment I'm on a break. I only check my compilation out once and a while: wondering when it will slide away into oblivion. My bosmer/vampirehunter Bambi is still there though: after she will have killed every bloodsucker in sight, she'll probably go to Solstheim. It has been a long time since I've been there with a char. Do not know if I will be uploading screens again.
    But he my sundaymorning routine is back: reading some of your stories before work starts.

    Greetings from the Lowlands.
    PS That other game probably sucks now doesn't it

      Thanks hon! Yes, I'm back in skyrim again (and yes, I got bored with the other bright shiny game pretty quickly - it just doesn't have the depth I can get out of skyrim, especially when I'm in the mood to write again).

      Your routine should be safe; I plan to write for a while now, probably not much more of Finayla's story, which is coming to its natural end, but I have a different project in mind which will see regular chapters coming to a screen near you!!

      Thanks again dear.

    Always enjoy your in-depth back stories. I like doing the same although I get a lot less opportunity at it then you do! I was wondering where this was going considering how Nords look at all Mer races, even though they are very different and share different views. Even the Dunmer and Altmer look differently on Lorkhan the mortal god.

    So was wondering what the reaction would be and seems Ulfric has not learned anything - still the bigot at heart. Although in the past they had every right to hate the Snow Elves for their treachery things will never change if the grudges continue (we know that from real life). Perhaps the housecarl will be able to find some way of uniting the two sides against the Thalmor although I suspect there is little hope of it.

    The images of Fin are very nice and show your trademark style. The Bosmer made a good case ... guess we see what happens next and curious how Fin fits into all of this.

      Hahaha, what are you saying? That I start too many characters? I've only started, er, say twelve in two years

      I'm drawing pretty heavily on the lore for this one; there's the Nord / mer thing sure, but I've also dipped into Bosmer history (Wild Hunt...) and even learned some Ayleidoon while at it! I hope to get the backstory component up and done in the next few weeks so I can be free to write her present adventures (if I feel the need to continue writing).

      As for the images, I don't know if it's MY trademark style or the trademark ENB that I use (which as you know, mostly comes from my laziness to find a new ENB) !! Anyway, thanks again for your comments (and encouragement outside of the Nexus which helped me get back on here again )

    Wonderful to see you back Jess and with such a great start, and you do cliff hangers so very well......... I do love that last shot, looking forward to see what happens with your new chars...... wonderful shots and amazing writing as always

      Aw thanks Shelley! I think it comes from reading too many books which were set out with each chapter ending on a cliffhanger. My all time favourite series when I grew up was the Dragonlance series and these very much were written this way. I think it's coloured my entire way of writing!!
