Serana's Point of View:

My companions and I came out of the gate in a wide open fiery field. I drew Auriel's Bow, setting a dwarven arrow to my string.

"Stick together," Allea said, "if we get separated we'll all die."

"Right," I answered, "let's move."

A small tusked creature rushed us, slashing at my stomach with its claws. Allea slashed it with her elven sword, killing it instantly.

"That would be a scamp," she muttered.

Another creature scuttled towards us. Its lower half appeared to be that of a giant spider, and from its waist up was the torso of a woman. I fired my dwarven arrow, piercing its chest and killing it. A different creature rushed us. It resembled a Dremora, but didn't quite look right.
"Look out, that's a Xivilai," Allea shouted as she sidestepped away from a stab from the Daedra's greatsword, which it held in one hand.

The Daedra summoned a lizard-thing.

"Clannfear!"

I fired an arrow at the Clannfear, striking it in the chest and causing it to squeal loudly in pain. I snapped off several arrows in rapid succession, dropping the Xivilai. A bipedal lizard with massive jaws rushed us, and Lydia pumped it full of steel arrows. I recognized the beast as a Daedroth as it fell under Lydia's bombardment. We fought our way to the Sigillum Sanguis, where Allea grabbed the sigil stone that was keeping the gate open. As soon as Allea stuffed the stone into her bag, the tower caught fire around us, and a few seconds later we appeared back where the gate had been. The gate was gone, and so were all the Daedra who had come through, indicating we had won.

"From what I know of the Oblivion Crisis, now that we've closed this gate, it won't reopen. Now we just have to track down any more that open and shut them down as well."

I nodded.
"Sounds good, but we don't know if any more have opened."

"If the Daedra attacked Whiterun, I wouldn't be surprised if they've attacked the other hold capitols," Lydia said.

"True. There is that," I said.
