A conversation.
Harkon Who?
TDB: If your father was a king of a vast and powerful kingdom, why is he not mentioned in any books?"
Serana: My father is a liar, he will say anything to get what he wants.
TDB: so.. not a king
Serana: Never. He was born into a high family but not royalty. Volkihar Keep was a meeting place between High Rock and Skyrim for their royal families to gather. My father sacked it killing every last soul plus more around the neighboring villages... death toll being that of about 1000 innocent people.
TDB: ah, the skeletons we fought
Serana: yep. The history books and high kings were never informed of the sack. my father used those murders to prove himself worthy of Molag Bal therefore he was granted the gift of being a pure blood vampire and making his power tenfold... thus using spells like illusion and alteration to make people think the island itself had collapsed into the sea. Taking its inhabitants down with it. Would be years later when the island would reappear in the fog and become this 'haunted' island
Serana paused
I actually found that out through Garan, he caught me up while you went after the blood chalice. I can't believe I've been locked away since the Alessian empire.
TDB: Wow... you're old
Serana: Shut it
TDB: That would make your father... super ancient... yeeesh
Serana: Yeesh?
TDB: Honestly...? I think your father is attractive
Serana's eyes bulge
TDB: I KNOW ! I KNOW! he's your dad, he's a vampire, and he's evil like a fox but I just find him so ... dreamy
Serana: Im sort of horrified
TDB: As am I ... (uncomfortable silence) Id could be your new mom...
Serana: Please be quiet.
