Author's Note: Read a couple of these a few years ago and then I recently bootcamped my Laptop and played Skyrim with the Live Another Life mod and made a Harry character and got infused by the desire to write it up, just a little teaser to see if there's still interest in this kind of crossover

Prologue: Aurbis

If he could string two thoughts together Harry would likely regret going through the Veil after Sirius.

However in this empty void he could not even feel anything, let alone string together two thoughts.

After what felt like an eternity he sensed something else in the Void with him.

An alien presence, a greater presence, a presence that was so immense it managed to make him feel a coherent chill of terror.

The presence's attention turned upon him and he felt great fear than he had ever felt before, even in the face of Voldemort or the dragon or the basilisk.

And then he felt the being's amusement and interest and fascination. And then he felt it focus in on the part of himself that did not feel like himself.

The part that felt like Voldemort.

Flashes of thought and impression flew through his conscience, Darkness. Corruption. New. Splintered.

And then Harry felt pain as the part of him that was-and-was-not-Voldemort was probed by the presence.

Strange. New. Delicious. Mine.

If he could have screamed Harry would have at the pain throughout his entire being as the part-of-Harry-that-was-Voldemort was ripped away by the being.

Gratitude. Favor. Rebirth. Mundus. Enjoy.

And then there was a burst of light and Harry knew no more.

Awaken child.

Harry bolted into an upright sitting position from where he had been laying in a slightly rocky patch of grass and gripped his head in pain. The new voice did not sound at all like the first. The new voice was like the pounding of drums and authority personified.

Harald of another world, my cousin has brought you here without a second thought to your survival past arrival and for that I apologize. Thus I will give you my blessing and protection until you find your place in Nirn. Good luck child.

Unfortunately Harry could not take the time to feel comforted by these words, so overwhelming was the presence that the reverberation of the voice in his head caused him to pass out once more.

Harry finally awoke to a strange feeling of magic working over his body. Before he could blink his eyes open he heard a voice over his body.

"Oblivion take me, Restoration is not my school. Wake up child." The voice harrumphed before continuing its muttering, "I need to know what you know about that burst of Magicka I sensed out here. I can tell you were at the center of it."

The magic over his body felt different than the magic he was used to at Hogwarts. It felt wild, pure, and...as Harry was blinking awake and analyzing the magic he noticed the magic from the spell being used on him wasn't the only magic he could feel. Magic from all around him was flooding into his body and Harry had no idea how to control it.

More magic than he had ever had in his body was flowing through him and it needed a way out. And then he felt the dam burst. He screamed.

The mage trying to revive him jumped backwards and tossed up some sort of shield as lightning arced off of Harry's body.

"By the Nine!"

Harry did not register the strange curse as his body was wracked in pain, after a few moments he did however register the instructions the person began giving him.

"Boy! You are absorbing too much Magicka! Cut yourself off! Clear your mind and focus on shutting out the rest of the world! You have to cut yourself off from external sources!"

The second time a version of those instructions were repeated they pierced Harry's pained haze and he attempted to follow them.

It took several more agonizing moments, but Harry eventually succeeded.

And then it took several minutes for Harry to find the ability to respond to the mage that had helped him in anymore than minor grunts.

Eventually the mage gave up on asking questions and offered Harry a water skin, "Here child, this should help you at least be able to tell me what happened."
