668: Swinging Fists
After the ambush on the Dawnguard, Serana was accompanied by the ambushers to a secret location at some mine.
Originally, she found a member of her family being escorted in a Dawnguard Wagon and she managed to rescue him and let him escape. From him, she realized that he was the only one who was captured and the rest of her gang members were all safe.
If not, she would have been contacted by Agnis already but it seemed that no one knew...
667: Akara's Dilemma
"So… speak." Jon sat on a chair facing Hemming Black-Briar who was on his knees.
"I… I don't know the exact location my mother is… but that Wizard Mecinar is the one who took her." Hemming said.
"I can figure out that much on my own." Jon's eyes turned from their usual calm to a menacing glare.
Hemming immediately continued to add as much information as possible.
"The Wizard and my mother had some ...
666: Suffering from Success
It was dark and damp when Akara arrived at the Ratway. The clinking metal she was wearing wasn't fitting in this part of town and weighed her down but as she passed through the thugs and ruffians of the underground, she didn't stop and kept moving forward.
The moment she stops, she will get into trouble.
She roughly estimated the location of the Ragged Flagon and as she went closer, the ruffians who were on her tail started to ...
665: The Vampire and the Avenger
"So, do we have a plan?" Delvin asked as he ordered all the Thieves to gather per Jon's request.
"It is a simple one. The Guild now is as good as bare. Before we can operate anything, we need to get everyone in line and regain the streets of Riften." Jon replied.
"You are going circles around the problem like this again? This is what got us into trouble in the first place." Vex protested, "I say we turn the Rift upside dow...
664: Hard Answers
A/n: so a piece of news first. I am currently reading "Relife System: The Unholy Mage" from the start so I can pick up what I forgot and start writing more. I feel like putting work onto my original work since I can't just rely on Dragonborn Saga forever. That said, it should take me a couple of days to read the whole thing and start pushing its publication. May God help us all.

Jon nursed Jullanar back to ...
Mercer Frey was contacted by Maven Black-Briar one night and she summoned him to her estate outside of Riften. But one he arrived, there was no Maven meeting him. It was a Dunmer Wizard with a bald head along with a prosthetic arm and eye.
Rumors had it that Maven employed that guy a couple of months ago and he seemed to be behind the chaos around Riften as he came for a certain Artifact that he turned the entire hold upside down for.
Still, on...

Jon made a very big fuss inside the Guild and it started to echo through its walls.
A former member offered a tribute of 10,000 Gold Coins. The members of the guild knew it was nothing too big for him but he claimed that these Gold Coins aren't your normal everyday Septims.
These were mostly Maormer Coins (Maormer: Sea Elves) from the far continent of Pyandonea, a place that is currently unreachable and anything from it is considered a rare...
661: Meeting with the Thieves Guild
A/n: sorry for the delay with the release these past couple of days since I was out of town.
It was close to madness how power started to shift in mere a few days. With the absence of Maven Black-Briar, the Dare Agents started to crawl outside the city and start conducting business with many farms, mines, and small businesses.
It was a war that couldn't be seen from the outside since its weapons were made of money and i...
660: Akara and Illia
(A/n: One Last Adventure before we finish this Volume! Guess where we are going?)
To Riften, Jon rode an eight-legged horse and passed the land. Teleporting through the land he could have used but this would take from him the thrill of the journey. He was already in the Rift and decided to go down the 7000 Steps of the Snow Tower.
He stopped by each village and town, bathed in rivers, ate from hunting and gathering, fought off trolls ...
659: The Greatest Dragonborn
*Winterhold, Neo Saarthal*
Year 202 of the Fourth Era brought not only war and destruction but also opportunities and wealth. Through Winterhold, merchants were now investing and using the resources of the land.
However, the most valuable resource of Winterhold turned out to be its accused weather.
The temperature in Winterhold was at an all-time low for most of the year which makes it impossible to plant any crops. Sti...
658: An Empire Ended
Jon sat at a high peak early in the morning thinking and meditating for a clear mind. He could see the entire world beneath where he sat and it brought him peace.
"A Broken World!"
"Will you shut up, Shadow?" Jon replied as his thoughts were interrupted by the leech at the back of his mind.
"Heh! Too broken for my taste." Shadow said, "You could have just become the Emperor but you're still going on with that old broken man's i...
657: Emperor Titus Mede II
Titus Mede II, Current Emperor of the Third Empire, Vanisher of the Aldmeri Dominion, Hero of the Culling, Savior of Cyrodiil, and the Man who Fooled the World.
The man has indeed ended the war and saved Humanity from the tyranny of the High Elves. Still, he knows that he didn't participate in the final Battle of the Red Ring and wasn't the one who stopped the Elves at the Tower during the Culling.
It was a friend he had never s...
656: A New Sanctuary
And so the Dark Brotherhood survived with more members than it was supposed to have. In the game, the worst-case scenario would only be Nazir and Babette surviving the massacre with Cicero being the third survivor in a best-case scenario.
Yet not only was it Babette, Nazir, and Cicero, but there were Festus Krex and Gabriella as well as Serana.
Jon even took the Black Door from Falkreath and stored it away before joining the rest of t...

"Listener."
Astrid looked up at the giant man who walked out of the Night Mother's Coffin with eyes filled with anger, sadness, and regret.
"You know what is the best thing about atonement, Matron Astrid?" The man went down on one knee, placed his hand behind Astrid's head, and helped her lay down, "It is that as long as your heart is true, you will be freed of your sins."
"Thank you…" Astrid replied, feeling the piercing pain run...
654: Among Us (3)
The disappearance of Festus, the timely trap in the Living Quarters, the eruption of the Alchemy Lab, and the attack on Arnbjorn… someone timed everything very perfectly for Astrid to witness.
Those were her thoughts as she crawled up and ran to the forge where her werewolf husband was struggling inside, before dragging him out of it without minding the burns she suffered.
The werewolf was in clear pain and agony but Astrid couldn't ju...

"THE FUCK YOU MEAN WITH THAT? Who walks Among Us?"
"He whispers! He speaks to whom he chooses, and his choice is absolute, and his will is that of the Dread Father. The Will of Sithis."

"Serana, dear. You killed the Gourmet and made the people less merry but the happiness you are bringing to the Brotherhood is worthy of a grand celebration." Astrid joined Serana's side and offered her wine as a toast, "Bloodwine, Argonian."
"Thank you, Astrid." Serana received the cup and raised it up, "To Sithis!"
Eagerly shouting the name of the Dread Father amidst the Assassins like this is supposedly very normal especially to a...

"So, the Listener, what is he like?" Cicero asked.
"You really want to know?" Serana replied with a question.
"Of course, Cicero wishes to… unless that is something he is not supposed to learn." Cicero gave a smart reply.
"Well… I doubt he will keep his true identity a secret for long but make sure to never cross him if you want to live. I haven't spent a lot of time in the outside world myself but judging from the monst...

While the situation was unfolding in Solitude, Whiterun was having its troubles going on and the one who was in the spotlight was Jon's sworn brother, Wulfur.
Wulfur has joined the Companions and moved to Breezehome manor in Whiterun to keep an eye on things. In the notes that Jon gave him, there were many secrets and future events that made Wulfur not know how to think about it all.
Jon said that Wulfur can either save Kodlak White-...

The second who will gain this title is the Dragonborn whose name shall be withheld from the public due to security reasons. May the Light of the Divine bless you all and bless Haafingar."

With the epic failure that is the Siege of Solitude, the situation on the Dragon Cult's end was definitely chaotic.
The Wise Dragons Horde was defeated not too long ago and the Secret Dragon Horde is now on the run. They were extremely sure that they could have destroyed Solitude and gave the Stormcloak a great advantage to reignite the Civil War but they lost Four Dragons in one day.
Lotsovengein, the leader of the Secret Dragon Horde an...

The Imperial Vanguard Cavalry led the charge in the city of Solitude and the Defensive Forces chased the retreating Cult Forces. The Firemane Clan members and the Dare Mercenary Corps landed from the floating island and assisted the Defense Force.
The Battle was over and the Siege of Solitude concluded in a matter of minutes with this grand finale.
The Emperor of Cyrodiil was a brute of a man with a menacing look in his eyes. He was rid...

"Your Imperial Majesty."
There was no mistaking Jon for what he truly is, a Dragonborn. A Mortal with the blood and soul of a Dragon.
For anyone else, it is impressive to be a Dragonborn. For a Septim, it is a whole different story.
The Septims were the ones that carried the Legacy of the Dragonborn Emperors for many long years as their ancestor was the Dragonborn Conqueror, Tiber Septim.
But long before Tiber Septim of t...

Potema knew the meaning of those words and through her desire for power, she understood the way Humanity works too early in her early life as the Imperial Princess of the Cyrodilic Empire.
Excellence, that's a word that barely gave her justice. She was just supreme. A wild talent. A storm. An Empress to be.
Sadly she was reduced to a Queen in the f...

Humanity is a mysterious thing. In many stories where a non-human is a bad guy, they are always attempting to harm humanity because they are judging them in some way while overlooking every other aspect. That is being short-sighted.
And so when the bad guys are at the doorstep with armies of white walkers, ships of alien invaders, vessels of stormtroopers, or whatever branded as the face of evil in any story, humanity has a way to uni...

[A/N: IT'S MA BIRTHDAY! I'm 27 now.]
The Dragonborn was a serious threat to all Dragons. Even without the support of Jon Dare, he proved to be very powerful.
The moment he joined the battle on Solitude, he displayed nothing but pure martial prowess. First, he used a bow and chased off a Dragon that was attacking the Bard's College. He then kept hunting the remaining Cultists in the city to wipe them off completely in less than ...

By the next day, most of Skyrim's holds got wind of what happened in Solitude last night.
Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak saw his chance and prepared his men, Jarl Balgruuf the Greater knew that there was no leeway out of this coming battle, but only Jarl Idgrod Ravencrone was the one to take a wise action and send a Warband of Nord Youth as a relief to Solitude.
Last night was when death played its orchestra over the unfortunate city.<...

The Dragons attacked Solitude for the first time and in a very organized manner compared to what Jon ever expected.
"Didn't you say the attack would come from the Dock?" Jon asked Sybille.
"This is just the beginning. They have a small army down there." She replied.
"Fuck! I'll secure the Spiral Stairs. The Dragonborn will be here shortly." Jon said and charged into the city.
The guards could hold half of the city...

As the ashes of the assassins scattered on the floor, the group walked ahead and saw the destruction that Jon caused.
