Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Elder Scroll's Games, Characters, Lore, etc. Bethesda owns all of that stuff. This is the format of this chapter only, the rest of the story will mainly be written from the point of view of this Character I have created. I started playing Elder Scrolls in Oblivion and it was and is my favorite game with its plot and the game in general.

1st of Morning Star, 3E 432

Ignorant Sages, foolish priests and damnable mages! None of those fools comprehend exactly what I want to do, though I was still able to gather some of the materials I will need for this experiment. I am hoping to be done by Sun's Height, but Evening Star will be more likely.

21st of First Seed, 3E 432

Excellent! I have gathered almost all of the materials, and have begun setting up the mage circle and designing the rune sequences I will need to pull this off. I may not have access to the ancient magicks that the Ayleid King held, but I'll be damned if I allow that to stop me!

20th of Rain's Hand, 3E 432

I am almost ecstatic! I made a trip north from my home here at the Imperial City to the Azura Shrine and left an offering to her of a portion of Glow Dust at Dawn of the 10th of Rain's Hand. Upon hearing her command to slay her vampirified followers, I did so and not only got a good amount of vampire dust, but within the cave I found some very useful things, such as a suit of Mithril Armor, enchanted even! Better yet, upon my return at dusk of the 11th of Rain's Hand, her ladyship granted me an invaluable boon, Azura's Star! Blessed be, this launches my work forword months, at least!

15th of Mid Year, 3E 432

Blast it all! I nearly have the rune sequences complete, but I need a daedric dagger soaked in daedra blood for a day. Such things are expensive, and my colleagues at the Arcane University have begun to keep a closer eye on me after that incident of an Apprentice casting the spell that sent me to Oblivion for a few seconds. I told them I was fine and not to worry, but even as we use such things as tools we fear them. I'll show them just how much command I have over Oblivion! They wouldn't understand I am doing this for the betterment of magick itself!

1st of Hearthfire, 3E 432

I have the runes completed and am currently charging them. After going off to the nearby ruins of Vahtacen, and soul trapping every bandit, spirit, and foul works of undeath I was able to begin charging them with powerful magicks to prepare for the coming ritual. Azura's Star has proved fascinating, and I have been working to bind part of my own soul into it. I still use it to commune with Azura, and she seems to have no opinion of my work so far. But she has not yet refuted my usage of her artifact so I must take that as approval.

7th of Hearthfire, 3E 432

It has only been a week since the last entry in this missive, while all my notes are elsewhere I find this something useful that can document key points in this experiment. I am explaining the purpose of this for I have hit my first major breakthrough. I was able to seal part of my soul into Azura's star, and have put it in place for the ritual. Immediately after sealing away a piece of my very essence, I fell horribly ill. It was only after stumbling to the college was I given a few potions that I began to feel better. As the healers tended to me I was forced to give a rather shoddy explanation that I exhausted my magicka reserves and it backfired on me during testing. They told me not to try such a thing again and after a quick promise, I was off to continue my work.

14th of Sun's Dusk, 3E 432

It is almost time! I have not been able to commune with Azura, but I was able to empower the runes enough that I feel ready for an attempt. I have set up a small shrine to the Daedric Prince in hopes that Azura will watch over the use of her artifact, and hope that in this I do not destroy myself. My overall plan is to convert my soul into that of a Daedra's, so that I can reform myself after death. But that is why I have Azura's star with part of my soul, so that once I have changed my soul I can enchant something so that I will always appear there after reforming. It would be a shame to die, then be trapped in one of the Oblivion realms, now wouldn't it?

24th of Morning Star, 3E 432

The wait is maddening! But I will finally perform my ritual tonight at Midnight, when the new day is born, and of course the 25th of Evening Star is the New Life Festival in Wayrest. I hope that the meaning is not lost on whatever power whose hands I put myself into. I do seem to have forgotten something in particular about the Festival, but I am certain it will come to me. I can only hope that this does not turn me into a monster like it did Umaril, and pray to.. Let's go with Azura that if I do that I never run into someone like Pelinal Whitestrake. Simply thinking of conducting this experiment would be reason to put me to death in the eyes of even my most open minded mage colleagues.

26th of Morning Star, 3E 433

This is likely the final entry. I remember very little of yesterday, only that now I have an insatiable thirst, for water thankfully, and that my head feels like an Ogre spent the night stomping on it. I have noticed very little change except I seem to have a Daedric dagger bound to me, and my destruction magic seems far more potent.

Addendum, after looking in the mirror on the wall by my washbasin, I saw my eyes have changed. They now appear red in the iris, and what was once a pale yellow, is now a pure gold. I can even see that my skin is a bit more brightly colored than most of my, or should I say, most of what used to be my race. I also found that dozens of roses grew in my gardens, and I feel like I should feel slightly offended. My connection to Oblivion has also grown, with me being able to summon the various creatures much more easily. With all of my questions, I decided to summon a Dremora Kynreeve and asked it what I was. It could only offer the answer that I looked mostly like a mortal but did not feel entirely like one. With that I dispelled it and returned to my notes.

27th of Last Seed, 3E 433

It seems that the Emperor has been murdered, along with his three sons. This only is brought here and to my notes because the Emperor is the only one who can light the dragonfires, and keep them lit. They are the only thing that separate Nirn and Oblivion wholly. I will have to keep good documentation of my dreams to see if I am contacted by any of the lords. I am sure that Azura will have some words for me. Her Star, beautiful as it was, was either destroyed or banished from the realm when I awoke upon the eve after the ritual had been done.

18th of Rain's Hand, 3E 433

I have limited my interactions with the Arcane University, and am considering leaving. Some have noticed my dagger and I wrote it off quickly as an experiment and training. Not to mention the "Oblivion Crisis" has hit an all time high. Several gates have begun popping up around Cyrodiil and from what I have been hearing, the rest of Tamriel. Of course, I have summoned several Dremora and questioned them on what is going on, and discovered that none other than Mehrunes Dagon is the cause of all of this nonsense. Well, if he does take over he is less likely to kill me.

It seems I was only partially successful in my attempts to become a Daedra. My soul is almost fully Daedra, so I will reform after death and reappear wherever my enchanted ring is. Even separated from my body it will function, and seems to have taken on a lesser aspect of a daedric artifact and seems nearly indestructible. I am cautious in my testing of it though, for what good would it do me to destroy my only way to live possibly forever?

1st of Mid Year, 3E 433

The Hero of Kvatch seems to be making good progress against the Mythic Dawn. Even staying here in the Imperial City I have been learning much, including that Martin Septim is the only heir to the Throne. And that the Amulet of Kings is in possession of the Mythic Dawn. Another important piece of information, I have procured a sigil stone by summoning a Dremora and beating it into submission. It claimed it would have "Lord Dagon destroy my pitiful attempt at existence, and not even the Lord of Debauchery can protect me from him!" . My response of course was to dispel him and set to work on establishing contact with Sanguine somehow. Now the results after my ritual seem to be making more sense. Roses to represent the Sanguine Rose, and a hangover! I certainly feel offended now, but if this Daedric Prince is protecting me I will need to find myself in his good graces if I am part of his power now. I should have noticed this when I began drinking more often!

4th of Sun's Height, 3E 433

The ignorance of it all! Damnable mischievous Daedra! Sorry Sanguine, letting out frustrations. My gracious Lord his Almighty Master of.. Orgies and Bar fights.. Has bound my soul to his Rose. WHICH I might add somehow by the power of the Overbearing lords of SARCASM, was granted to none other than the Hero of Kvatch. He summoned me while I was sleeping, while in the middle of a battle at Bruma in which Martin Septim himself led forces rallied from all the cities in Cyrodiil. He immediately woke me and commanded me to defend Martin with my very life, which I did feel a compulsion to do so. It probably helped that I didn't want to have to serve Mehrunes Dagon should he come to Nirn, or worse, suffer eternity for being bound to Sanguine. Oh well, once the Great Sigil Stone was removed the Great Oblivion gate collapsed and the Hero returned, not even thanking me for protecting Martin so well that he didn't even have to kill any Daedra, and instead simply dispelled me thinking me some lesser Dremora! The nerve of that one, I swear!

5th of Sun's Height, 3E 433

I simply cannot believe it! The Hero summoned me in his Skingrad home, and right in front of his servant! He then proceeded to ask me what I knew about the invasion from Oblivion and why I looked so much like a High Elf, and why I dressed as one too. I proceeded to explain that I was at least once a high elf, in fact just at the end of last year! Then told him that an experiment that partially worked.. Partially didn't. That I had become tied to Sanguine and his Rose, and that I had learned through my own investigations that it was the Mythic Dawn and Mehrunes Dagon causing all of the crisis. I also spoke about how it seemed as though the only way to get me sent back to my home in the Imperial City was if the Hero used Dispel on me. He then said that we would travel to my home so he could try to learn from me! Saying that since he owned that damn staff and he summoned me, I was bound to follow his commands for the most part. I replied saying that if he tried to abuse that power he would most certainly regret it.

We travelled back to my home and he was forced to dispel me in a hidden alleyway next to my door, because I did not have a key on my person when he summoned me. I allowed him entrance and began showing him around, and to the guest bedroom. I suddenly found myself his follower, tutor, and confidant! With him in Sanguine's good graces I seem to have a new ally that I can trust with my secret, at least for now. He claims we will head forth to the Cloud Ruler Temple, fortress of the Blades and go through a portal to Mankar Camoran's Paradise to kill the bastard and take back the Amulet of Kings. Simple, yes?

28th of Sun's Height, 3E 433

Well, Martin is dead. Yes, you read that correctly. After retrieving the Amulet of Kings from that bastard Mankar, we trudged all the way to the Imperial City and were confronted after entering the Palace with impending doom. So your average Fredas in Nirn.

We burst out of the palace and fought through hordes of Daedra to reach the Temple District. Upon reaching it though Mehrunes-Giant Bastard-Dagon appeared. Martin was forced to turn himself into the Avatar of Akatosh ( Theorize/ ponder later) and destroyed the Amulet of Kings to banish Dagon back into Oblivion and seal it away forever. Well, obviously not because while the connection to Oblivion weakened, it is still possible to summon Daedra with the same ease as before and I am still bound to the Rose. I have absolutely no idea what we are going to do now, but the Hero asked me to lead him back to my home in which we are staying for two weeks at least. During which I plan to clean up his spell casting (His reaction time is abhorrent) and up his magicka levels for the more drawn out aspects of magickal duels, and for the more powerful components of spell creation and enchanting. He seems to not plan on going to the Arcane University or join the Mages Guild, not that I can blame him. I plan on officially retiring from it tomorrow.

Morning Star, 4E 000

It has been quite a while since I last added upon this sort of Journal. Of course, it has been many months since I last did so. The main reason for that is that the Hero of Kvatch became Sheogorath. Yes, even writing that is simply maddening! I mean seriously, I went through a year's worth of effort just to become a partial Daedra and that fool goes and makes himself a Daedric Prince in the time of a few months? The nerve of it all! Apparently I am allowed to stay in the Shivering Isles whenever I please, and the Hero will be staying there to acclimate to his new role. Of course Sanguine appeared and after a bit of discussion I had a wave of madness roll over me as Sanguine transferred control of my spirit in its place in Oblivion to Sheogorath. Of course that means I can now randomly be summoned by anyone possessing the Wabbajack, and am obligated to mention I am now a Golden Saint. I now look like one of them, only taller and my skill with Magick is superior to theirs. At least now I have a place to exist for the times when Nirn and Tamriel get too crazy. Upon considering where that place is YES I CAN SEE THE IRONY!

4E 171

So a war is happening now, and with Bravil under siege, and Gia has suggested we make our way into the Shivering Isles for the time being. He was even powerful enough to pull my entire home from the Imperial City and set it in the Courtyard of the Palace in New Sheoth. We'll have to wait this out, but in the meantime we will be advancing our magic by studying some of the conjuration and destruction spells here. Even some of the alteration spells interest me.

EDIT AN: Had to fix some of the dates, I had been glancing over this when I realized that I had several of the dates mixed up.
