      Thank you Noise, glad you enjoyed it.
      I'll assume you're referring to Mirielle, as her mother is just a high elf preset with better hair lol.

    I wonder why there has not been a "Pretty Falmer" mod yet, where they just replaced them with snow elves that look like yours!

    Modding community I am disapoint

    Had some issues with getting the images aside from the main to load so even despite your best intentions it was still a teaser for me, until now!

    Very cool direction, but I darn if Windhelm doesn't look similar to present day! Unless its "Totally not Windhelm"!

    Good stuff, Dylan if your Golden Claw tale was anything to go by, then this should be a good one

      Well it wouldn't feel right massacring their caves if they weren't hideous ;)
      I used Imgur for this set and they work for me, but I'm sorry you had trouble :/
      And yeah, there might be some more familiar locations lol. I don't have the talent nor motivation to actually make new areas so you'll see some re-used. Hopefully your imagination will let Windhelm do the trick ;)

    Pretty Snow Elves That is how I imagined them, but then "­Dawnguard" ruined it.
    I'm glad somebody's finally solving that problem!

      Yes, poor old Gelebor isn't the prettiest of Elves. But give him a break, he's a few thousand years old :p

    This is a great and interesting approach, Dylan. I really like where you're going with this. When I was writing stories I always felt a bit...disabled...by following the present time in Skyrim (or to picture even Skyrim). I write at my best when I use my own backgrounds and built worlds, although I never started something like this since I felt there would be just too much for the single reader as I tried to introduce my whole worldspace.
    You're still in Tamriel and Skyrim though, so I like this prologue very much. It's a great initiative and I find it very charming to see you're beginning in her childhood as well. My guess is that garnet necklace will be of great importance to her somehow...

    Excellent start!

      As I've been writing the first thousand words or so I would agree that I've had to find a balance in how much I share with the audience. Going into a complete essay about the people, environment, and histories gets all of the information across but is pretty dull to read. I suppose you have to allow for the reader to have their own imagination about it. You can guide your reader in creating their own version of your world in their head while giving them the building blocks.
      Anyway, I thought a prologue would be nice in order to build up her relationship with her mother as well as give you an idea of the city/castle. But as for the necklace I would point you towards the disclaimer because there's very little chance it will come up in the actual story haha.
      Thank you for your thoughts, Rick!

      I suppose that's the best compliment I'm gonna get about her dialogue haha! Being the youngest child myself, I didn't have personal experience to go on :p
      And that main has a couple post-effects add it to it, so I won't take too much credit for it ;)
