Sundas 6th of Heartfire

Late Afternoon

I finally proposed to Aela, well not exactly proposed but I did wear my Amulet of Mara and she let me know that she wanted to marry me and that I wanted to marry her.

But I am getting ahead of myself. I was dreaming of my love when she woke me and told me that she found the remaining totem. It was in a cavern system to the south west of Whiterun and she wanted us to get it. I got dressed in my armor and headed out with her.

It didn't take long for us to get to the cave that held the Totem. The cavern was called Brittleshin Pass. The place stunk of necromancy and a few skeletons were guarding the cave.

Aela's arrows were somewhat not effective on the skeletons but I was quick with my sword and shattered the undead into piles of bones.

The path lead up a spiral ramp, at the top of the ramp was a chest, I went to open the chest, an ice bolt exploded on the wall besides my head. I turned to see the Necromancer casting another spell, that he never got off. Aela made his throat sprout an arrow, and my sword cleaved off his head at the neck.

I went back to the chest and found inside the last Totem of Hircine. This totem was the skull of an average sized wolf with a few feathers attached to it.

The trip back was not worth mentioning but in the Underforge was another matter. I gave Aela the Totem to place on the altar. When her back was turned I put on the Amulet of Mara and called her name after she had placed the Totem. She turned and saw the Amulet, tears started to fall down her cheeks as she hurried to embrace me. I returned the embrace and kissed her lips passionately.

I asked Aela if she was interested in me, she nodded and said that she was more than interested. She asked me if I was interested in her. I kissed her again and told her that I love her that I wanted to be wed to her. We held the embrace for a long while, she finally told me that I needed to go to Riften and prepare the wedding. I kissed her one final time and headed out of the Underforge.

I headed to Breezehome my house and checked to see if it was ready. I gave Lydia the good news. She was happy to hear that I had found love, and told me that she would attend the wedding.

Took some time to write in the Journal before heading off to catch the Wagon to Riften.
