My name is Danphine Kronix, I'm a imperial born and raised in the Nordic province of Skyrim. I had lived in with my mother in Cyrodil until my father died while doing mercenary work. Then we left for a new horizon and traveled to riften where my mother took up being a bed maiden at a local pub. After many long months we saved enough Septims to afford a small shack on the outskirts of Solitude. We Lived happily together there making a living by gathering alchemical ingredients and mixing potions and selling them to the town vendors. On one of my mothers trips to sell the months batch she met a strange man named Rupert Vonscang, A Dunmer who had known my father many years before in the Oblivion crisis. She invited him into our home as our housecarl and everything was fine until...

Chapter 1 4E 201 Suns Dawn, Turdas, 12th

As i looked into the murky water of the lake that surrounded my home for the past 13 years i thought of adventure, Of treasure and of romance. Just as i have for the past week. I looked at reflection and ran my hands through my greasy brown hair and stared into my almost white blue eyes. I couldn't help but wonder if my dreams would become in my thoughts i Hadn't noticed my mother standing beside me and i fell into the water."As clumsy as you'll ever be my sweet Danphine. Just like your father, Must be where you get your daydreaming from as well". She said as she helped me into the house."Well i wouldn't have fallen if the face of a hagraven hadn't suddenly appeared." I retorted with a brow furrowed and i knew i had crossed the line and prepared myself for her anger. She lifted a pillow from her cot and tossed it at me."You'll look like an Orc when you get my age just like your damn father."She handed me a towel and told me to dry off as she walked into the other room. As i was stripping of my under garments i looked at my now nude body in the mirror.I observed my small breast and my peach colored nipples erect from the cold water still dripping down my body sending shiver up my spine. I was finally beginning to blossom into a young woman, As i ran my hand up to my breast and about to rub my nipples which had now become sore from neglect, I noticed Rupert standing in the doorway of our home. I quickly wrapped myself in the damp towel and swung around to confront him. "What are you some sort of animal barging into a woman's house without even knocking, How long have you been standing there?". "Not long miss, I'm terribly sorry but i have some very urgent news for your mother." "Fine leave and i shall dress myself in private and ill get my mother." As he was exiting my mother entered the room with my fresh clothes and a small strange box id only seen once before when i was a small child.

Chapter 2 Our final goodbyes

She handed me the clothes and told me to get dressed hastily, so i did as commanded. "Who was that at the door dear child?" "Rupert he says he has urgent news for you and i think he had been watching me getting undressed." "Then i don't have much time hurry get dressed and I'll explain to you what you need to do for mother." I nodded in agreement. "We need more snowberries so I'm sending you out to get them i need at least 400 so please go to the grove north of here.." "But mother its at least a 4 hour walk one direction, Is it really necessary?" "Don't question me child now listen take this box with you and open only when the time is right." " How will i know when the time is right?" "Believe me Danphine you shall know now please just listen, It has an important message for you and it shall help you for the trouble that is soon to come. Please be careful my child its dangerous out there!" I looked at my mother bewildered but nodded and took the box and put it in my satchel gave her a hug and kissed her. For some reason i felt as though it'd be the last time i would see my dear mother, I didn't know how right i could ever be.
