This, as you can see, is Adamus's last letter to his elven lover before he crosses the border into Skyrim. Adamus is not the main character in the next story, but he is a major one, as the reasons he is in Skyrim are just about as significant as the main character's reason for coming to Skyrim.
Preview for my next story: "Adventures of an Apprentice Blacksmith" follows the excursions of a Nord by the name of Hans Northwode, a young man who was training as a blacksmith before his father was murdered and his sister disappeared. Hans enters Skyrim looking for his sister, and to avenge his father. You will find that Hans not only has his own objectives in Skyrim, but will also confront a great evil (the game's plot). Like the prelude you have just read, 'Adventures of an Apprentice Blacksmith' will be written in a first-hand account by Hans himself, mainly by journal, but will also include letters he writes to people.
As you can guess, the story will contain major spoilers from Skyrim, which is why I will not post any of the story until 2 months after release and even then I will put a fair warning before the story begins.
Some significant mysteries related to the events of the prelude that you will uncover in 'Adventures of an Apprentice Blacksmith' are:
1. Who murdered Adamus's father and for what reason?
2. Who is the Altmer woman Adamus left in Summerset Isles?
3. What is the significance of the dragon sighting by Adamus? (If you know the general plot of Skyrim, then you already know this answer.)
4. Will Leyawiin's Countess or the Argonian Shadowscale Agent have any part to play in the story?
5. How does Hans and Adamus meet?
6. The events of Adamus' journey after leaving Bruma.
