    I really like Ellandra, her sense of humor is so good! The action between the deathlord and his summon against these two had me on my toes the whole time. Great writing again Wade!

      Revenge of the Enemies is a great mod to make all kinds of things stronger with more abilities, especially undead things.

      A lot of pausing the action to get the right shot, although like a lot of this early work, I wish I knew what I know now and things would have been a lot faster to make.

    As Jess pointed out below I also am enjoying their banter as a strong friendship seems to be growing.
    Heh, they will get Stan outfitted yet!
    Great work!

      Thanks again! Stan finally got some fitting armor and now if we can just get him some potions and a little coin he will be all set finally

    I love the banter between Ellandra and Stan... I wonder if there'll be something between them? Very epic action passages and images - you have a flair for action writing. I love your very vibrant shots too; looking at the images is as much fun as your story!

      We'll see. Honestly, I have not put much thought into romances yet but I'm sure there will need to be something in future, just not sure what.

      The combat scenes are my favorite to do. Some of my best shots have been the result of absolute luck when I hit TFC 1 and took the camera somewhere I was not even looking at. Basically just gave both characters 10,000 health and did the same with the enemies and just went to town with images

    You wrote a very nice story with Ellandra and Stan, how they mastered this tomb...It seems to me ,they are a very good couple. Nice, to see them with your wonderful pictures...The end in nature with the sky is very well choosed for the end of a chapter
    You did a lot of work and I had the pleasure, to be with you

      I really appreciate that a lot BM. The combat scenes were pretty fun to make. We will see what the future holds for these characters. I'm looking forward to introducing more characters soon. Glad you are enjoying it

      I have only been on the nexus for about a year (and started uploading any images about 3 months ago) so I have not earned a legion of followers yet

      I think endorsements may come with more time but if I get to converse with people in the comments and I continue to enjoy doing this then that is more important.

      I think the mod idea that wolfgrimdark is working on will help everybody that does this so I look forward to that. Just keep having fun, that is why we play the game

    I was wondering if one of these two would turn out to be the dragonborn or not - but to them both the wall was but a wall. Not that it matters either way - I was imply curious where the story might go in that regard.

    The best part of the story was all the wonderful dialogue between the two characters. I loved that line about the "reaching skill" and Ellandra's reply by thumping him in his chest. Really growing to like both of them. The strong as an ox big ole Stan and the smart and clever Ellandra who is mult-talented with weapons and some magic. Nice thing about healing spells - don't need plants and alchemy station to use them :-)

    I liked how you play into the characters natural abilities. Ellandra using her animal ability (earlier chapter) and now Stan dealing with cold water and frost better than she (like his comment to her about being in Valenwood as well).

    They seem to be making a good team as they get the Dragonstone and escape. Some really good descriptions of the action. I like how it was just the fight but the talking they did as they went through the place. Well thought out. Some great shots, especially the one with Ellandra jumping over her foes.

    Glad to see they both made it out in one piece!

      Trying to decide who the dragonborn is was the hardest question that I asked myself when I started this. I can say that neither of them sensed the word wall at all as I'm going to wait until the first dragon is dead to announce that.

      I do have the most fun making the dialogue and a bit of a hard time making the 3rd person narration. Ellandra does need to practice that novice healing spell in case she runs out of potions someday. It would have been handy when Alduin attacked her.

      I think she was pleased that Stan was back to himself quickly after she gave him a bit of a wake up call at the start. Not sure I would be in good spirits either after being alone in the dark while diseased and bleeding to death.

      As soon as the dragonstone is returned then a lot of my future plans will be able to start forming so it is getting more exciting for me now. Again, thanks for the great feedback!

    Very well thought out and executed battle-scenes; and I have to say I love the way you write the Dialogue of Ellandra and Stan; aswell as the Attention to Detail you have. The screenshots reflect the writing amazingly well and are very Fitting. Great work; looking Forward to reading more of those two!

      Thanks for the rely Alex! This really was a battle heavy chapter simply due to the location, and unfortunately I really did not have a good place to end the chapter.

      I really appreciate the thought about the dialogue. This is the easiest way for me to actually portray a conversation.

      After the dragonstone is returned, I expect that there will be more characters introduced and the story will become less linear than it has been at the start.

      thanks again!
