      Thank you so very much Narilda for saying this is an amazing chapter and excellent pictures. Yes I agree, poor Dagri, and the worst part is he was strong then Ambrosia, older , but he just would not hurt her , I wonder if she ever gets her memories back how she will live with that... made me sad to write it. I am glad as a writer to know that you found this story emotional. Thank you for saying the shots were excellent that is so very nice of you to say

    I can`t believe, what i`ve read!
    Ambrosia killed Dagri!? Oh no, that can`t be true!
    What power can be so strong, to transform Ambrosia into a beast!
    MIRAAK!
    I´m speechless!

    Great chapter Shelley!

      I am sorry did not mean to shock you dear, and Miraak is very strong and very evil and I know you have a thing for him but he is bad boy...

      Thank you for saying this was a great chapter...

    Another brillient chapter to a epic story shelley the loss of dagri will hit hard to core of Ambrossia if she ever gains back her memories, and such a thing would be mentaly scaring that it could even send the true Ambrossia on a dark path and into a differant person by her own will. Revenge for a loved one i think can change what a innocent (tho inoccence is a illusion) kind soul into a dark one depending on the person. however Ambrossia is feirce in the end and for she hasent lost everything yet. still got kids and freinds to go back to. Miraak is tolled to well of the worst kind of Evils in ur tale shelley and should suffer a pain and punishment far worse than just a horrible death alone, i believe Ambrossia will pull through all this horror that has befallen her. she cannot blame her self for killing dagri as it wasent her choice realy. the part of dagri being miraak brother as well was a nice surprise to read as for Armion, tho he is pledged and part of the Aldmeri Dominion and the thalmor ways. he i thinks isent a Evil to core not like Miraak anyways. A part of him just seems to show very rarely that he dosent like what he is doing and is wrong. but a other part of him that is bigger is telling him he is right and doing the right thing by his people (the thalmor and most of all his Tasurmee, sorry i may have got that name wrong) being brought up by a culture such as the thalmor will most likely shape a persons Charactor, something of Armion tho that i just carnt put my finger on tells me there is possably some good in him deep down. Thats my opinion on him anyhows so far. iam intriuged to hear what ur bio is for dagri lon as all i know so far is from ur storys and talking to him in game with Aidrainne who he kept calling stupid and couldant realize his major achievment of cheating death and decay and becoming immortal XD she dint mind tho she laughed as why dint he just become a vampire, would have a face instead of a void and eternal life but he got all his looks back and looks fresh after Ambrossias quest that refounded him iam looking forward to ur next chapter shelley. Oh and how the hell is she fighting is those high heels

      Thank you so very much for the wonderful detailed feedback, oh I love comments , love to see what you all see from what I write and I cant wait to read them..

      I agree in many ways I worry if she does get back her memories if she will be able to handle knowing what she did or will it damage her more then any of what happened by the Thalmors hands... I don't know if she would ever be able to forgive that she could not hold on to that love she had for him even with out her memories, I fear she would forever be changed and for the worst ... or if she does get them back if she will just give up and give in to the dark as she will feel she has done so much bad, that is where she belongs, I hope she comes back as herself, but do still wonder how she will heal from this .. As for the bother thing yes, I will be doing up the bio for Dagri and Ambrosia soon so will give a bit more info on how that came to be. As Dagri is not what he seems and was very very old..

      I have felt goodness in Armion and I knows that in the past Ambrosia felt it as she still before she lost her memories did not understand show she could still care that she had lost his friendship by what he had done, she felt close to him and saw good or she would never allowed her close to her but in the end he is a Thalmor and must play by their rules or he will be punished and would be lucky to stay alive if he took her side.. to bad he would make a great friend for her when she needs one.

      My bio will differ a bit from what interesting npc made him as I have customized him a lot since I got him and fit him to her stories but he is a very interesting char.. with lots of twists and turns in his life and yes he is also a bit of a a@@hole at times.. but he always has something to say and will step out in front of Ambrosia to protect her. lol he talks non stop some times even in ruins.. and when they stop for a camp they can sit and have a conversation ... plus I had the guy who voiced him do some custom lines for him so he is a bit more going on, even though I think he has about 1200 lines so far.... a vampire now that is an idea for him ... yes huge overhaul on him , the head was the big things lol


      High heels are just like no heels to fight in just make you a bit taller .... she does love her heels and finds it hard to be with out them and some of that is she is very small she comes in no heels up to most mens shoulders so she needs a bit of heel

    That first image is superb, Heaven! I had some really cool, philosophical stuff written down for you, but the Nexus had a hiccup and everything I wrote got deleted. Suffice it to say, this latest installment is a work of art. :-)

      Thank you so much Disciple, I know I have had to redo so many comments of late, seems nexus hates us to do it once and be done lol... but I thank you so much for the thought and am most happy that you felt this was a work of art. The first shot was my favorite, I loved the sky so much

    After our PM conversation I had a feeling this was coming. It still didn't make reading it any easier. But I know that sometimes the story needs to go where it will. A very emotional and powerful chapter dear with the big everlasting about Miraak and Dagri being brothers absolutely flawing me!!

    Beautiful images and very powerful wordsmithing hon. I salute you for having the backbone to stay true to the story and take it where it needs to go. Eagerly looking forward to the continuation and oh I hope we see the blue lady and the now departed Dagri somehow reunite again.

      I know and I so wanted to tell you, it was so hard to keep it a secret and I did have a hard time following though on where I felt it needed to go and though it was hard to write it did fit where she is in this time for her she is not herself, not even close, she is another person in Ambrosia body and even that Miraak has changed, she is lost somewhere in that realm, now will she find her way out I am unsure in same ways, if she will ever be herself I think not fully, how could she ever be the same after this..

      I do need to take a day or so and do up Dagri's bio, he is such an interesting char, and will so many layers and so very old that I forget only bits and pieces of it have been told... then maybe others will understand who he was.

      It was hard at time to stay true to my vision for this as I did not want to shock or make anyone to sad over the loss of Dagri and as he was her life line in same ways.. even after all she went though at the hands of the Thalmor, the rape, the deaths, she managed to get though it with him by her side, she put it away and I wonder if she hide it instead of dealing with it.. and if she is to ever come back to her, I fear it will all come to a very messy head someday soon. I guess we will see if she can handle it all...

      I thank you so much for your wonderful support of my stories and for all the wonderful comments, they mean the world to me.. thank you my friend.

      Ooo i'd love to see Dagri's bio (and Ambrosia's for that matter too)!

      I'm so glad and proud of you for making this hard decision and having the strength to follow through with it. Your fellow wordsmiths are cheering for you!!

    OH my GODS! What has Ambrosia done?? Poor Dagri....
    That part about Dagri and Miraak being brothers just totally threw me!

    If and when Ambrosia gets her memories back from Miraak....
    YIKES!! What she will do to him for viciously manipulating her in such a fashion....she'll kill him REALLY slowly, and with great and very sadistic creativity and brutal imagination for certain!

    Endorsed. Thank you most kindly for such a powerful pretzel-plot-twist, Shelley, and cheers, dear!

      Thank you so much Amadan for such wonderful feedback, Poor Dagri it does seem that the man is in the wrong place at the wrong time often, but even though he wanted to remove Miraak he was not willing to harm Ambrosia to do it. When/if she ever regains her memories how will she deal with this, I am sure not in any good way. Armion and Miraak have both been a pain in her ass but I wonder if she even knows anymore who the real enemy is or if it is herself.

      I think you are right if/when she get those memories back she will want to make sure Miraak pays for every tear she will cry for what she has done as in the end it was still her blade that killed Dagri.

      I am very happy that you enjoyed the pretzel plot twist I have created. I hope you enjoy the rest as it comes

    Interesting? What an understatement!
    Beautiful images, and enthralling story.

    Stragon writes,
    Though I have my jealousy of Dagri, I found the betrayal of love to be heart wrenching.
    I soooo plan to kill Miraak a thousand times. Not just for Dagri, but for what he has done to you Ambrosia. I know these are not words you wish to hear, but in time you will appreciate them, profuse the denial now, but your words are as hollow as the soul that now occupies the once charming and beautiful creature that once rivaled the gods.
    Miraak will not have reign over you. You are strong and willful minded. Once his time is ended, you will return the balance of beauty to Skyrim and to know what love is once again.

    Vilja writes,
    Oh, my dearest Ambrosia. I just can't express my deepest sympathy for what has happened to you.
    Please return soon. I am so worried of what Stragon plans. He is just in an awful state of mind, never have I seen him so filled with rage and hurt.
    I just can't carry on, please come back.

      Thank you so much for saying this was beautiful images and a enthralling story.

      My dear Stragon,

      My girl thanks you so much for your concern and for the words to show Ambrosia and time will help to heal her, if she was able she would also thank you for the thought to kill Miraak a thousand times, I do hope someday she can understand he deserves to die a thousand deaths for what he has done and intends to do to all of human kind. I do hope when/if she comes back to herself she is able to find some sort of way to deal with this, with the help of her dear friends in Skyrim such as Stragon and Vilja, I do think she will need them all if she is to ever recover from this. I wish that Stragon you are safe and are careful with that evil man, he is not to be underestimated at all, he is very powerful and will play with your mind please take care and keep Vilja safe as she could not stand to lose you

      My sweet Vilja,

      Ambrosia does thank you so much for your words and someday when this is over she will come home I am sure, Skyrim is her home , her friends , you and all of her family, if she ever gets back her memory she will come home to Skryim as she knows nothing else anymore it is where she does belong, Please take care of Stragon, do not let him do anything that may harm him... I will keep yu updated on how she is doing as I know You are so sweet to care so much my dear, means very much to my girl !!
