    It is always such a pleasure to read you stories (dark and sad as they may often be).

    Brilliantly illustrated as well

      Yay, thanks! I'm glad you like the characters, since they're definitely not everybody's cup of tea, so to speak

    Great story - dark and sad like much of life. Politics are indeed a quagmire (although I tend to see quicksand more as wet like mud than dust ... but then I think there are things similar to that in the desert as well). Sometimes the two of them seem so close and at other times so distance and I almost felt like she is keeping secrets from him. Beautiful shots that fit the story very well.

      While writing about quicksand I was thinking more about Goldman's "lightning sand" than the actual, real-life thing. His description of drowning in this suffocating sea of dust was super evocative, I couldn't stop thinking about it when I first read the book, so there you have it

      Well, I think that every couple have their ups and downs - even if the downs usually consist of one of them being possessed and all that jazz. This time, at least I think so (you never know where your character will take you, as many people here claim), the silence was caused by the fear - and a strong will to conceal it. But hey, you never know...

      Thank you for commenting!

    That's sad how the rpg system works. "You must. You're a hero, after all." And that does indeed makes a monster out of main character, who is a master of four different guilds and sold their soul to all daedra at once. I like real Saga much more, especially because she is a bit creeped out with that temple rumors ^_^
    Beautiful visuals and writing! ^_^

      Only if you want to though :) My main, Grim, only did two of the Daedra quests. He refused evil quests, did not use enchanting or anything that touched upon souls. In short I role played him and did not try to do everything meta-game wise. Plus I find in Skyrim you can often ignore the destiny others impose upon you :)

      It all depends on the player's style, I think - some focus solely on the roleplaying side of the game and never do anything too OOC, others grind for them precious EXP points I am the third kind, though. The lazy one.

      Thank you for commenting, Lidia! Glad you like the real side of Saga - being creeped out by things was her trademark state of mind before this whole Night Mother fiasco, after all

    Oh yes, the guilt that often can be laid upon the table whether meant truly as a threat or simply just to gently cajole one into doing what it is that is wanted done. Cruel it is often, and carried out by so many to so many. It is a game that is best not played as the end result might be sometimes be not calculated in its entirety.
    Great installment Kayol. I love your weaving of present and past. I am glad you feel like celebrating,

      Thanks a bunch!
      Yes, the guilt of others is quite a powerful, if not truly hoonorable, weapon to wield, isn't it? But, as they say, desperate times call for desperate measures.
