    Okay, I knew this would happen at some point but, it was awesome! I loved how it finally connected to Kodlak after all this time. And I like what you've done with the dragon deeds and the civil war status (Loved the clever use of the map there)

    I'm so hooked, hahahah!

      Glad to hear you did enjoy both the Dragon and Civil War status aswell as how it all connects to Kodlak here .. that said he will eventually lose his role as the Narrator so to speak .. for reasons both inside the Story world aswell as a decision on my part to "free up" (if not with Kyn herself, at least most likely) the Companion Questline for the Narrative .. while I could have used his Ghost Version to continue I rather did seek out a good point to "in story" fade him out as the narrator ..

    A nice idea to show us what happened in Skyrim in the years where Kynthia wasn't there. Hope to see more from that "dragon-slayer-gang" in future (i'm pretty sure i will)

    Very nice work on the images too....the last one is very touching!

    See you in the next chapter my friend!

      Thank you very much, my friend! Happy you enjoyed this chapter aswell. I thought that it would be "normal" that things in skyrim would Progress no matter if a "possible" dragonborn is present or not; and delphine and her ragtag blades would be the best choice to try and stand against Dragons! and they will possibly Show up from time to time again

    I love the idea of what happened in skyrim without the dragonborn's presence; what a totally unique idea! The war, well, that was always going to happen, with or without the Dragonborn. But the idea of increasing dragon attacks and the Blades going ahead and fighting the, (and the blasted Thalmor) even with the Dragonborn - that was just amazing! Love the practicality you bring to this tale!

    I'm interested story see where this heads now; I wouldn't think Kynthia would need further training after her time spent with Verdyn (then again, that was a different type of training - not basic swordplay).

    Great chapter dear!

      Thank you for your Kind words and Feedback, Jess!
      Happy you like what I did there with the Blades .. even though I was absolutly not sure if Delphine would be the right Person to do so .. After all she was around 30 years in hiding.. So I guess it was "hard" for her to step up; form a ragtag band of blades and lead them to fight the Dragons openly .. So I'm really happy you like it

      Well, she is only skilled with the Bow and that Bow wasn't very helpful against the Ebony Warrior, so she is hopeing to at least get a good footing with a sword to face him again with the blade if necessary

    A cool and creative approach Anataron. I liked how you summed up the war while she was away - made good sense and a great way to not have to deal with something peripheral to Kynthia in some ways.

    The Dragon Group is wonderful - makes a lot of sense that a band could take them down and since I like Delphine (except for her pig-pigheadedness at the end but I can't really fault her for that considering all she has been through so I think I cut her more slack than 95% of nexus and players do) I like the idea of her leading them. I think she is a good women actually and is pretty decent. Players just don't like NPC's acting bossy to them so I think that is why people tend to dislike her (that and the Parth situation).

    So now we know why Kodlak is telling her story - another great little plot line. All in all a great story and images.

      Well, first of .. thank you so much for your Feedback, happy you liked this chapter

      The CW is now even less of a concern for her after she had read the Letter from Hadvar - now she either wants all 3 dead (Tullius/Ulfric/Rikke) or avoid anything related to them .. even though somehow I doubt she will be able to avoid them for Long ...

      Now, I can totally understand why you like Delphine and I personally think that she is one of the best vanilla Characters.. Even though I had my doubts with this part - after all, she was ~30 years in hidding from the Thalmor and to step up and fight for the People .. wasn't sure if it is the best Idea to pick her. On the other Hand who else would be able to get a Ragtag Band of " Dragonslayers" going

      Well, some day I had to bring him in

      Again, thank you very much for your Feedback and Kind words

    Super chapter Alex!

    Some great dragon shots, and your take on "The Blonde" and her troops is nicely done.
    Excellent work my friend, well done!

    Amazing new chapter my friend ! Great work !

    Love how you described how the civil war was going during the period of time Kynthia was gone, as well as the dragons going rampant since left uncheck..and the apparition of this mysterious fighting force ! ( I see that some NPCs decided to be a little more cooperative? )

    So finaly we get to know why Kodlak knows her story ! Looking forward to the next part !

    Amazing work

      Thank you very much, Liadys .. so happy and relieved you enjoyed this part
      Yeah, if she was not spawned in via console but picked up in riverwood she was finally cooperative .. with the help of AFT
